Yes, usually first time probation is kind of like a slap on the hand. At our chapter you fill out grade sheets every week on what you think you are getting in classes, you also meet with scholarship chair for mandatory study hours you must follow on probation and possibly a few other things. Also usually if its first time, they will let you take a diamond, but it is up to the NMC and exec to allow you.
Second time is more strict, you need your teachers to sign off what you actually are getting in their classes each week, more study hours I think, and other more strict things. I know more about the first than the other probations.
Third time is bad. Chapter can vote or discuss getting rid of you and you not being an ADPi anymore. You go in and can bring witnesses to help you plead your case, but a lot of times, its bad. When I was in one girl from my pledge class I was very close to and anotehr girl I knew both were on 3rd time probation and were asked to leave ADPi. It was very sad, but their grades werent close to making grades.
A lot of times if you had a bad semester due to family problems, health problems, or something that hurt you getting good grades, you need to plead that and the reasons even bring in doctors reports or witnesses and they take that into consideration and may just give you a less probation. Really though its all up to exec board on what they can do. They can decide to give you a less probation because you plead your case well or they could decide to make it worse cause your grades were horrible or something else.
