STANDARDS
OF ACADEMIC PROGRESS |
| |
The
main purpose for the Standards of Academic Progress (SOAP) is to establish
a formal process through which the administration and faculty at Miami
Dade College can identify and provide assistance to students
who experience academic difficulty. Most students at Miami-Dade do
make satisfactory academic progress. However, students who experience
academic difficulty are alerted through the Standards of any academic
weaknesses so they may be corrected at an early point in the student's
college career.
