Change of Major and SAP Determinations
A student cannot change his or her major to avoid the consequences of unsatisfactory academic progress. After one or more semesters in a new major, the Director of Financial Aid may consider a change of major during an appeal. That is, the Director may consider excluding courses outside the student’s current program of study if the student’s appeal demonstrates the grounds to do such.
RCC graduates who return to college must continue to meet published Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards. Financial Aid measures SAP for prior graduates based upon all courses taken since the last graduation has occurred.
