Academic amnesty provides an opportunity for an student or applicant to start a new academic record. When academic amnesty is awarded, effective with a given semester all college or 欧美三级片 level credits and grades earned prior to that semester are no longer recognized and thus are not used in subsequent academic status determinations or grade point average calculations. The award of Academic Amnesty does not change a student's financial aid history.
