Financial Aid recipients must maintain satisfactory
academic progress as one of the criteria
for receiving Federal/State Financial Aid.
The requirements for making satisfactory
progress are:
|
| 1.0 |
Quantitative–
the amount of work you are required to complete
(75% of attempted hours) |
| 2.0 |
Qualitative-
the grade point average you are required to
maintain. |
Hours
Attempted
Minimum Required G.P.A. |
|
0-31 |
1.60 |
| 32-63 |
1.80 |
| 64-above |
2.00 |
|
In
addition to the cumulative grade point average
requirements indicated above, a full-time
or part-time student is expected to have
completed 75% of the hours for which he/she
has enrolled/ attempted. |
By the end of your second year of enrollment,
without regards to the number of hours attempted
or earned the student must have earned the
grade point average, which is consistent
with graduation. The grade point average
consistent with graduation requirements
is a “C”. All Transfer and Re-
Admitted students must meet the minimum
grade-point standards as well as complete
the percentage of work required as stated
in this section in order to be eligible
for financial aid. |
| Incompletes |
An
incomplete grade (“I”) does
not count towards course work completed,
but is counted with course work attempted.
An (“I”) grade is intended to
be only an interim course mark. It is to
be used only if a student has satisfactory
completed at least 75% of the course requirements,
and there is an excusable and acceptable
reason for his/her not having completed
all requirements prior to grade reporting
time. With the awarding of the “I”,
the instructor must include information
as to the specific requirements for changing
the “I” to a permanent grade.
A grade of “I” must be changed
by the end of the next Semester in which
the student is enrolled. |
| Withdrawals |
If
a student officially withdraws before the
last two weeks of the semester, he/she will
receive a grade of “W”. A grade
of “W” is also counted among
the hours attempted. |
| Repeats |
Repeated
courses are counted each time the student
re enrolls in the class and counts each
time among the scheduled hours attempted.
The U. S. Department of Education does place
a limit on the length of time a student
has to complete a Remedial/Developmental
Course, the limit is one year. The U. S.
Department of Education will not pay for
a Remedial and/or Developmental course,
which take more than one year to complete.
|
| Incompletes,
withdrawals, repeats, may cause you to use
up the allotted time for completing a degree
program using Federal/State Aid before you
can complete your program of study. If this
occurs you will not be allowed to receive
additional State/Federal Student Financial
Aid Funds.
