A student is dismissed from the college if they do not demonstrate improvement in their academic performance and have been on academic probation for three consecutive semesters in a row. Dismissed students will not be able to enroll at MassBay until they successfully appeal their Dismissal through the College Appeals Board.
The purpose of the College Appeals Board (CAB) is to provide an efficient and impartial environment for student appeals requesting readmission to the College due to academic dismissal.
