Admission Standards Committee
Membership:
7 Faculty (in the event a faculty member cannot participate in a meeting, the faculty member may designate his/her temporary replacement for that meeting from within the tenured or tenure track members of the faculty member’s college), Director of Undergraduate Admissions and Dual Enrollment, Representative from Enrollment Management and Academic Support, Assistant Provost and University Registrar, Executive Director of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships, Director of Graduate Admissions & Recruitment, and Vice President for Student Affairs.
Terms of Service:
Faculty members will serve a three-year term and can serve two consecutive terms. When consecutive terms have been served, a three-year break must occur before serving again.
Description:
The committee has the responsibility to review applications of students who do not
meet the stated admission requirements for the university. The committee may waive
certain aspects of the admission requirements and admit no more than 10% of all accepted
students. The committee will review the progress of these students and will recommend
full admission status when they have satisfactorily completed the stipulations for
conditionally admitted students. The appellate source for further consideration after
the University Admissions and Standards Committee is the Assistant Provost for Enrollment
Management or such other person as the president may designate. The committee will
meet at least once at the beginning of each semester and may meet other times as needed.
The Director of Undergradate Admissions and Dual Enrollment will serve as a non-voting
chair of the committee.
