University Disciplinary Sanctions
The following sanctions may be imposed upon any student found to have violated the student conduct code
- Warning – A notice in writing to the student that the student is violating or has violated the Student Conduct Code.
- Probation – A written reprimand for a designated period of time. If a student has a subsequent policy violation during the probationary period, it is likely that more severe sanctions will be issues for that offense.
