Mature Not Allowed to Continue FAQs
Students on Mature status are admitted on probation, and their academic status is assessed upon completion of 24 credit hours. They are not allowed to continue their studies at the University if they do not meet the 1.4 GPA Minimum Performance Standard upon completion of 24 credit hours.
The Minimum Performance Table and our policy for Not Allowed to Continue for Mature status students can be found in the Academic Calendar’s Regulations & Policies section here: Regulations & Policies
You cannot register for any additional classes after your status has changed to Not Allowed to Continue. However, if you are registered in classes which have already begun when notified of your status change, you do have the option of continuing in those classes, or withdrawing with a full refund. Please note that in order to receive a full refund, you must notify Stephanie Rozzi, the Academic Advisor for Adult Learners and RPL, of your decision within one week of receiving your notice of Not Allowed to Continue, and you must drop all classes. You can contact Stephanie at s.rozzi@uwinnipeg.ca or 204.786.9972.
Having a Not Allowed to Continue status does not mean that you cannot get your degree. Students can resume their studies by upgrading their High School credits to meet Regular status admission requirements and reapplying to the University, or after a Readmission when Not Allowed to Continue appeal has been granted.
However, being Not Allowed to Continue does signal that your current progress is not heading in the right direction for a degree. It is important that you take some time to re-evaluate your strategies and make adjustments so that when you return, you have a plan to pass your courses and get your degree. We highly recommend contacting a Student Success Advisor to create an Academic Success Plan prior to your return to classes.
