Satisfactory Academic Progress

In order to be eligible for federal, state, and institutional financial aid, a student must be making satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of a degree or a teaching certificate.


View the satisfactory academic progress policy here.

All appeals must be made in writing on the Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal form.

If you do not successfully complete any coursework in a preceding term, you are no longer eligible for financial aid. You may appeal if you have mitigating circumstances by submitting the Appeal for Financial Aid After Not Successfully Completing Any Coursework form.

All appeals along with all required documentation are to be submitted to:
