Students receiving a failing grade in a core sonography course or an online course will be referred to the Committee on Student Progress (CSP). Any failed online course may need to be repeated and additional tuition will be charged, and may result in delay of progress through the program. Failure of any single core course will be cause for referral to the CSP and may be cause for dismissal from the program.
