To maintain financial aid eligibility, a student must make satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward a degree. 51仓库, in compliance with federal regulations, has established certain standards that must be met to receive federal financial aid.
Satisfactory academic progress is determined by both qualitative and quantitative measurements.
All 51仓库 students must meet and maintain the cumulative grade point average (GPA) required by the University for continued eligibility to enroll and graduate.
Undergraduate students must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0.
Graduate and doctoral students must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0.
Podiatric Medicine students should refer to the 51仓库 Graduate Catalog for Standards of Academic Progress.
Physician Assistant Program students should refer to the 51仓库 Graduate Catalog and their Didactic Year Manual for Standards of Academic Progress.
Students must complete their education program within a maximum time frame (measured by attempted credit hours) and must earn (receive a passing grade) a minimum percentage of all attempted credit hours. The time frame cannot exceed 150% of the published length of the academic program. The published length of the academic program is the minimum number of credit hours required to earn a degree.
To complete the degree requirements for graduation within the maximum time limit and considered as having made SAP, a student should successfully complete 67% of all credit hours attempted.
The maximum timeframes for students to finish their degree will be verified at the end of each semester to ensure compliance toward graduation and monitor the student鈥檚 SAP.
Attempted Credit Hours听
Attempted credits include any hours for which a student is registered for at the conclusion of the relevant drop/add period. Any attempted credits that are canceled and removed from a student鈥檚 transcript (e.g., via withdrawal) are still considered attempted credits for purposes of determining financial aid eligibility under this policy. Attempted credits include all grades, including听鈥滷鈥�, 鈥淚P鈥�, 鈥淚鈥�, 鈥淣C鈥�, and 鈥淲鈥�.
Withdrawals
Grades of 鈥淲鈥� given after the add/drop period are considered attempted credits for purposes of determining financial aid eligibility under this policy.
Incomplete Grades
Credits earned in a course for which an 鈥淚鈥� grade was initially assigned, and for which a Satisfactory Grade is then replaced, count as earned credits. Grades of听 鈥淐R鈥� credit听 are considered satisfactory grades under this policy. If a student is required to repeat a course, the repeated course is counted toward the number of attempted credits.
Transfer Credit Hours/CLEP/Study Abroad/AP Credits
Credits accepted by 51仓库 for a degree program do count as attempted and earned credits for SAP purposes. Audited courses are not counted as attempted credits. The quantitative SAP assessment will be reviewed for all students at the end of each semester.
Repeated Coursework
Repeated courses affect academic progress as follows:
Change of Major
Undergraduate change of major:听some courses from the previous major can be accepted as electives into the new major.听 These courses count as attempted and earned credits for SAP purposes
Graduate change of major:听in some cases a course(s) can be used as an elective in another academic program and will be counted as attempted and earned credits for SAP purposes.听听 If the new program has specific elective/major courses and the courses taken for the previous degree are not applicable, these courses will not be counted as attempted and earned credits for SAP purposes.
The Financial Aid Office will review satisfactory academic progress for financial aid recipients at the end of each semester.
This policy is applicable to all undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students receiving federal financial aid.
If a student is not making satisfactory academic progress at the end of a semester, the student will be notified in writing and placed on financial aid warning for one semester. Federal aid will be disbursed for the following semester, but at the end of that semester, the Financial Aid Office will review the student academic record and termination actions will be taken if satisfactory academic progress has not been met. If federal student aid is terminated, notification will be sent concerning the appeal process.
Satisfactory
Students are considered in 鈥済ood standing鈥� if they meet all of the SAP requirements defined in this policy. Students in good standing are not notified at the end of each quarter or SAP evaluation.
Warning Status听
The first time that a student does not meet the required completion or cumulative grade point average, the student will be placed on financial aid warning. The student will retain federal financial aid eligibility.
Termination Status
The student will not be eligible to receive any federal or institutional financial aid, even if the student is permitted to continue enrollment at 51仓库.
Probation Status
If a student has received a warning semester and is still in violation of the SAP requirements, the student is suspended from receiving financial aid. The student may appeal this decision and if the appeal is approved, the student will be placed on a probation semester and will be eligible to receive financial aid for this semester. The probationary period may be extended to more than one semester if approved by professional judgment. An academic plan may be required for a probationary status that is longer than one semester. Financial aid probation notices will be sent via email to your Barry email address.
Academic Plan
A student who cannot meet the minimum standards by the next evaluation period is placed on an academic plan. The academic plan is designed to allow the student to meet minimum academic standards. Progress is checked each semester and evaluated based on the terms of the plan. If the student fails to meet the requirements of the plan, they will become ineligible for financial aid. If a student meets the minimum SAP standards while on an academic plan their financial aid status is updated to eligible at their next evaluation. An academic plan should be provided by your program advisor.
Students who have become ineligible to receive financial aid may regain eligibility in the follow ways:
Please note that a warning status is not subject to appeal.
Attempt credits without financial aid until you meet all minimum SAP standards. Students who choose to attend 51仓库 while on financial aid termination will do so at their own expense and will not be eligible for financial aid upon seeking reinstatement. When seeking reinstatement, students must be meeting the academic progress standards in order to regain eligibility for subsequent enrollment periods.
Appeal Procedure听
If there are extenuating circumstances which prevented the student from maintaining the standards of academic progress, an appeal may be filed. A University Satisfactory Academic Progress appeal form must be submitted via the听, along with supporting documentation.
All appeals should be submitted via the听, no later than 60 calendar days from the start of the semester following SAP termination. Decisions are based on the information provided by the student and a review of the student鈥檚 academic record. All decisions made by the appeal committee are final.
Approved Appeals 鈥� Probationary Status
Students who appeal may be granted a probationary period. At the end of a probationary period, students must be meeting the satisfactory academic progress requirements or must be successfully meeting requirements of an academic plan in order to continue to receive financial assistance.
Denied Appeals 鈥� Reinstatement of Eligibility
Students who choose to attend 51仓库 while on suspension, at their own expense, will not be automatically eligible for financial aid upon seeking reinstatement. Students must be meeting the academic progress standards in order to regain eligibility for subsequent enrollment periods.
