Disciplinary Probation And Dismissal
A student may be placed on disciplinary probation for behavior deemed to be detrimental to the wellbeing of the offending student or the student body, or for the infraction(s) of College rules and regulations. Should disciplinary action be deemed necessary, the student will receive in writing from the Dean of Student Services or Dean for the Ottawa and Online campuses the reason(s) for the disciplinary action and the conditions of the probationary period. For additional information, please refer to the NCCC Student Handbook.
Students may be suspended temporarily or expelled depending on the scope and nature of the infraction(s). During probation, participation in extracurricular activities may not be permitted.
