Policies and Procedures

The specific policies and procedures to be used in applying the satisfactory progress standards are outlined below:

  1. Satisfactory progress will be evaluated at the end of each spring semester.
  2. Hours attempted for purposes of this policy will be defined as those for which a student receives a grade of A, B, C, D, E, F, I, IP, K, N, P, R, U, or W.
  3. For undergraduate students, grades of E, F, I, IP, N, P, R, U, and W will not qualify as successful completion of hours attempted.
  4. Noncredit remedial courses, courses taken for audit, and courses in which grades of K or P are received are not figured in the calculation of a student's GPA.
  5. If otherwise eligible, students will be given financial aid during a term in which they may be repeating a course. Financial aid can pay for the repeat of a passed course only one time.
  6. A student who fails to maintain satisfactory progress as defined will not be permitted to receive federal, state or institutional financial aid.
