  2. Recess and repeat the entire academic year.
  3. Dismissal from LMU-DCOM.

For students who fail three (3) or more courses in a given academic year, the SPC may recommend one of the following:

  1. Recess and repeat the entire academic year.
  2. Dismissal from LMU-DCOM.

For students who fail two (2) or more courses across both the OMS-I and OMS-II years, the SPC may recommend one of the following:

  1. The student must complete remediation as directed by the LMU-DCOM Course Director(s).
