You must meet three requirements to be considered to be making Satisfactory Academic Progress in order to receive financial aid.
If you do not meet all cumulative academic requirements outlined in Step I or 2 at the end of a graded semester, you will be placed on Warning status.
If you are placed on warning status, you may continue to receive financial aid for one semester. After which you must meet the requirements outlined in SAP okay.
If you complete a semester on warning, you must have your academic progress reviewed before your financial aid eligibility for the following semester is determined. Due to the short time period between semesters, there will be at least a three week delay in the notification of eligibility. If eligible, any disbursements of student aid will also be delayed.
If you do not meet all cumulative academic requirements outlined in Step 1 or 2 at the end of the warning semester, you will be placed on Financial Aid Disqualification. Generally, a student who is disqualified from financial aid may reestablish financial aid eligibility by meeting all cumulative SAP criteria. Students placed on Disqualification status are not eligible to receive financial aid except for a California College Promise Grant, if eligible. If you complete a semester on disqualification, you must have your academic progress reviewed before your financial aid eligibility is determined for the following semester. Due to the short time period between semesters, there will be at least a three week delay in the notification of eligibility. If eligible, any disbursements of student aid will also be delayed.
Under certain conditions, students placed on disqualification may file an appeal for consideration of reinstatement of financial aid eligibility. The following are examples of reasons you may file an appeal:
The following are Not considered extenuating circumstances beyond your control:
To file an appeal, the student must obtain an appeal form from the Financial Aid office and submit it with an academic plan, and a typed statement to their campus's Financial Aid Office. The typed statement must indicate the circumstance(s) that prevented the student from making SAP and what has changed to allow the student to make SAP at the next evaluation. Supporting documentation must be submitted for any semesters where there was a lack of progress.
The Financial Aid Office reserves the right to limit the number of academic appeals a student may file to one appeal per semester. Non-disclosure of information such as other colleges attended is a basis for denial. Once denied, you may not be allowed to submit another appeal until the next semester. All decisions made by the Appeal Committee are final and there is no higher appeal process.
Students on an approved appeal are considered to be on Probation. If you are on Probation, you must meet all of the following requirements each semester to maintain financial aid eligibility:
Students who complete a semester on Probation must have their academic progress reviewed before their financial aid eligibility for the following semester is determined. Due to the short time period between semesters, there will be at least a three week delay in the notification of eligibility. If eligible, any disbursements of student aid will also be delayed. If you meet all requirements during the Probation semester, the Probation status will continue for the following semester, unless you reach MTF and therefore are disqualified.
