Your academic standing is a general indication of how well you are doing in your program. It is also used to determine whether you are permitted to enrol for the next academic cycle, and if there are any conditions attached to your registration (e.g. limits to the number of credits鈥痠n which you can register in a given term).
It is your responsibility to review your academic standing on your unofficial Minerva transcript each term and to report any issues to鈥�Arts OASIS.
