  2. A transfer student who is admitted on Academic Probation retains that status until the student has attempted at least 12 semester hours at Coastal Alabama Community College. If, at the conclusion of the semester in which the student has attempted a total of 12 or more semester credit hours at Coastal Alabama Community College, and the cumulative GPA at the College is below 1.5, the student is suspended for one semester. The transcript will read SUSPENDED–ONE SEMESTER.
