Academic Standards

Who we are: Board Advisors and Staff

The policies and procedures described in the LSA Bulletin govern the conduct of academic matters affecting students enrolled in the College. Exceptions to these policies may be granted only upon written petition to the Academic Standards Board. Honors students petition the Honors Academic Board; Residential College students petition the RC Board on Academic Standing (BOAS).

What is the Academic Standards Board?

The LSA Academic Standards Board is the unit of Student Academic Affairs that reviews requests from LSA undergraduate students about waivers or exceptions to the College's academic rules and requirements that may be granted while maintaining the integrity of the undergraduate degree. The academic rules and requirements are found in the LSA Bulletin.The Board also reviews undergraduate grades at the end of each term to determine the academic status appropriate to each student’s academic performance. Throughout the year, Board members focus much of their efforts on helping students in academic difficulty achieve academic success.
