BOP Program Statement 3308.11 § 9
TERMINATION FROM THE PROGRAM
Once requirements for a high school diploma, trade school certificate, GED certificate, or
Associate/Bachelor’s Degree have been met, the student is no longer eligible to participate in the
program. If enrolled or accepted in an additional educational program, he/she may be given a
new appointment.
Graduates below the Bachelor’s Degree level may serve out the unexpired portion of their
appointment if they intend to continue their education the next semester or quarter.
Students who fail to be in good academic standing (maintaining at least a “C” average or a GPA
less than 2.0) for two consecutive semesters may be terminated.
Students who discontinue their education are terminated no later than the last day of the pay
period in which the student leaves school.
A student may be discharged for performance- or conduct-related reasons. A student
experiencing performance or conduct related difficulties must be notified as soon as possible and
normally is given an opportunity to improve before termination. Supervisors must have
documentation on file to support a performance or conduct-related termination.
Students being terminated process out through COESD during the last week of employment.
