Failing to Meet SAP Requirements

Students failing to meet SAP requirements as determined by the Qualitative or Quantitative Standards outlined in the Satisfactory Academic Progress section will be notified through email and this notification will be recorded within the student’s academic file.

Copies of unsatisfactory progress notices are retained within students’ files for five years. Any hours attempted will apply toward the maximum timeframe permitted to complete the program. This includes courses with grades of WP, WF, R, P, or I. Remedial classes, if offered, will not affect SAP and are not eligible for financial aid.

Certificate Programs: Students who fail to meet SAP requirements are automatically placed on SAP Warning, which lasts for one payment period/semester during which the student will continue to receive Title IV funds and VA educational benefits. Students that fail to meet SAP requirements after their warning period lose their aid eligibility and will be suspended from their program of study unless they successfully appeal and are placed on SAP probation.

Degree Programs:  Students who fail to meet SAP requirements are automatically placed on SAP Warning, which lasts for one payment period/semester during which the student will continue to receive Title IV funds and VA educational benefits. Students that fail to meet SAP requirements after their warning period lose their aid eligibility and will be suspended from their program of study unless they successfully appeal and are placed on SAP probation.
