A RHB student will be put on programmatic academic probation if their cumulative UAB GPA falls below 2.75 or their institutional UAB GPA falls below 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. Students will have one semester to address any deficiencies in order to remain in the program. If a student does not regain good standing after that probationary semester, they will be removed from the Disability Studies and Rehabilitation Science program. In rare occasions, additional time may be granted to students upon appeal if the student can document significant progress and provide a compelling case.

Currently enrolled students can view their assigned registration time in BlazerNET. Enrolled students will be given an electronic Registration Time Ticket that is shown on their Registration Status on the Student Resources tab of BlazerNET.
