International Student Standing and Probation

International students must comply with UTRGV’s good academic standing during their academic studies to avoid being placed on academic suspension. If a student is placed on academic suspension, the student can appeal the academic suspension. The appeal does not guarantee that the student’s appeal will be approved.

If the student fails to submit an academic suspension appeal or the appeal is not approved, the student will not be able to continue studies at UTRGV. For F-1 students to maintain their immigration statuses, students will need to transfer to another institution before the start of the next available term.

If a student is not allowed to register at UTRGV and cannot transfer to another institution due to timing constraints, the student will be out of status, and the SEVIS record would have to be terminated, with termination reason "Suspension."
