Do Students Get Expelled When Exceeding the Number of Academic Warnings?
Translation:
"Do students face expulsion if they exceed the allowable number of academic warnings? Under what circumstances are students expelled when their academic results are processed on an annual basis? I am a university student following the credit-based grading system and have received multiple academic warnings due to personal matters. However, in the last instance, the school sent me an email stating that I have exceeded the allowable number of warnings. Therefore, I would like to know if I will be expelled. I look forward to receiving clarification on this matter. Thank you!"Are Students Subject to Expulsion When Exceeding the Number of Academic Warnings?
