The PASS Program (Providing Academic Support to Students) serves students with academic holds (Academic Probation and Academic Suspension). Our PASS Advisors help students improve academically and develop skills to sustain success in college and in life. PASS Advisors also connect students on Academic Warning with needed resources to promote academic progress.
Academic Warning:
Academic Warning is given to students who have earned a cumulative GPA of less than 2.0 for the first time.
Academic Probation:
Academic Probation is given to students who have been on Academic Warning in the past and have earned a cumulative GPA of less than 2.0. A hold has been placed on your student account to prohibit future enrollment until you have met with a PASS Advisor. To be in good standing students must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.
Academic Probation Process: (New - Effective 11/07/2023)
Students on Academic Probation must attend a PASS Workshop. The PASS workshop includes a presentation and discussion on student success, and the opportunity to register for next semester courses. Be sure to arrive on time. You will need to reschedule if you are late.

If you received a 2.0 semester GPA on the last semester attended, you may not need to attend a PASS workshop. Please contact PASS Advising at UP-PASS@lonestar.edu to determine if you need to attend.
Academic Suspension:
Academic Suspension is given to students who have been placed on Academic Warning and Academic Probation in the past and have since earned a cumulative GPA lower than 2.0. To be in good standing students must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.
Academic Suspension Appeal Process: (New - Effective 11/07/2023)
*You have the right to appeal your academic suspension. If you choose to exercise this right, you must follow the appeal process specified by the campus at which majority of your courses have been completed. For more information on the appeal process email UP-PASS@lonestar.edu.
Students wishing to appeal a suspension must submit a Suspension Appeal Form. The LSC - University Park Suspension Appeal form will be open for Summer and Fall registration from March 25th 2024. The deadline for Fall appeals is August 9th 2024. Students can expect to receive a decision notice to their mylonestar email and if approved, are required to attend a PASS workshop.
