Students whose financial aid is suspended for the following reasons may appeal if they have extenuating circumstances that contributed to their poor academic performance:
Exceeding the maximum time frame
Failure to meet the grade point average (GPA) requirement
Failure to meet completion rate requirement
Students are required to submit documentation to support their explanation.
Students who wish to submit an appeal form must first complete one of these online Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) workshops:
The workshop will review the basics of SAP and how to complete an appeal form. The appeal form will be provided at the end of the workshop on the confirmation page.
SAP appeals will be reviewed once all necessary documentation is submitted.
A SAP Calculator is available to assist students in determining the number of credit hours they need to successfully complete in future semesters and the grades they will need to earn to maintain financial aid eligibility.
