  • Possession or use of firearms, explosives, or other dangerous substances
  • Vandalism or damage to property or physical harm to others
  • Possession, sale, transfer, or use of illegal drugs
  • Being (or appearing to be) under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, possession or consumption (use of) alcohol/drugs on campus
  • Harassing or abusive acts which invade an individual’s right to privacy, including sexual harassment or abuse 
  • Any activity that may be perceived as hazing, which is defined as a situation or activity which intentionally or recklessly endangers the physical or mental health or safety of an individual for the purpose of admission or initiation into any affiliation or organization associated with the institution
  • Reckless or intentional use of invasive software such as viruses and worms destructive to hardware, software, or data files
  • Academic dishonesty
  • Violence or the threat of violence

Note: This list is not exhaustive. To view the full version of the Student Code, please refer to the Student Handbook.

The institution reserves the right to suspend or dismiss any student at any time when such action is deemed to be in the best interest of the student or the Neumont community. Dismissal may be the result of:

  • Misconduct
  • Poor academic performance – even when the student has met Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements – or in response to other compelling indications that a student may not be successful at Neumont, such as being on track to graduate at least two quarters later than originally scheduled (due to failed courses), not receiving approval for a Capstone project after two quarters (whether due to rejected proposals or not submitting proposals), and failure of three or more courses in a quarter
  • a student receives a failing grade in NEU100, or its equivalent
  • a student is deemed unfit for school enrollment
  • or due to other factors that warrant separating a student from school

The institution’s determination about enrollment cannot be appealed.
