Students who do not earn 10 TWE and 10 SF credits at the end of the semester and student with an exemption that did not meet all of their requirements by the end of the semester will be placed on Chapel Probation. Students who are on Chapel Probation face the following consequences:
- A hold will be placed on your student account- This means you will not be able to register for classes (including changing your schedule) until the hold is removed.
- Loss of University-sponsored leadership positions- Since we view chapel attendance as an important part of the GU experience, students on Chapel Probation will lose their privilege to serve in positions of leadership including RAs, student government, and campus ministries.
In addition to these consequences, faculty advisors and coaches will be notified of those students on Chapel Probation, and they will be encouraged to use their influence in a positive way to help students earn their required number of TWE and SF credits.
To make up TWE and/or SF credits that were missed, students are required to watch a video of a TWE or Vespers service that he or she was not present for and write a summary and reflection on the service.
One reflections counts for one make-up chapel credit. For more details on the make up process, see the article on "make-up chapel credits."
Once a student has watched the recordings and submitted enough make-up essays that brings them to 10 TWE and 10 SF credits for the prior semester, they will be removed from chapel probation and their privileges will be restored.
