Rate of Progress
The Rate of Progress rules are in addition to the Program Pursuit rules. Students must follow both sets of rules in order to receive a TAP award each semester. Rate of Progress requires that a student earn (pass) a certain number of credits before receiving each TAP award. In addition, students must also maintain a certain grade point average (GPA).
These academic standards must be maintained for continued receipt of aid.
To receive each TAP payment:
- credits counted must meet degree requirements you are enrolled in
- you must have completed a specific number of credits in prior term
- you must meet a specific number of total credits
- you must maintain a minimum GPA.
