Progression Policy


Students must meet the following requirements to progress in the CM major. Failure to meet these standards will require the student to CODO out of the School of Construction Management. DCI majors must earn a grade of “C-” or better in all CM courses and all courses that are a prerequisite to a CM course. The “C-” grade must be earned before enrolling in subsequent courses. CM courses can be repeated only once.

Appeal - Students that are not allowed to continue with CM courses due to the Progression Policy may make a written appeal to the Head of the School of Construction Management Technology if they believe there are extenuating circumstances that caused them to be dropped from the school.

Departmental Policy - It is the responsibility of each student to assure that he or she fulfills the necessary pre-requisites and courses to meet graduation requirements. Questions may be directed to a CM advisor.
