Maintaining Financial Aid Eligibility Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)

The Financial Aid office is required by federal regulations to periodically review financial aid recipients to ensure that they are making satisfactory academic progress towards the completion of his/her program of study.  Satisfactory academic progress (SAP) for financial recipients is measured by both qualitative and quantitative standards and is an assessment of a student’s cumulative academic record while in attendance at the College.

Failure to Complete Classes and Financial Aid Return of Financial Aid Funds (Return to Title IV)

Title IV funds are awarded to a student under the assumption that the student will attend school for the entire period for which the assistance is awarded.  When a student ceases attendance, the student may no longer be eligible for the full amount of Title IV funds that the student was originally scheduled to receive.
