Dear friends:<br>
<br>
Another question for you all related to concurrent enrollment -- the UL<br>
System requires an overall GPA of 3.2 on ALL undergrad coursework to<br>
qualify. Does the Southern and LSU system have similar rules?<br>
<br>
Question to ULS colleagues: How do you all feel about asking for a<br>
modification of the ULS policy to say something like "Overall GPA of 3.2<br>
or an average of 3.2 on the last 60 hours"? Not everyone is a stellar<br>
student all the way through, and I do know a few very good students who<br>
had a rather rocky start for various reasons and cannot qualify for<br>
concurrent enrollment as a result.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Ramu<br>
<br>
