Academic Progress
The Office of Student Financial Aid wants to see you earn your degree as quickly as possible. But not everybody’s academic career follows a smooth path to graduation. What follows is a list of the minimum academic standards which must be met in order to continue receiving financial aid. Should you find that you aren’t meeting these standards, you will always have the option of appealing to regain your eligibility.
Continuing students must meet and maintain the following three objectives to maintain financial aid eligibility.
Objective One
Students must meet the following grade point average based on hours attempted:| Degree Program | Hours Attempted | Required GPA |
|---|---|---|
| Associate Degree & Certificate Programs | 0-15 | 1.00 |
| 16-29 | 1.50 | |
| 30+ | 2.00 | |
| Baccalaureate Degree | 0-29 | 1.50 |
| 30-49 | 1.80 | |
| 50-59 | 1.90 | |
| 60+ | 2.00 |
Objective Two
Every student must successfully complete a minimum of 67% of the hours attempted at the University. Summer credits will be added to the previous academic year's work.The total number of hours attempted will be determined as of the fifteenth day of class each semester.

Students taking developmental courses only or a combination of developmental courses and regular courses must successfully complete 67% of the total class schedule. Only grades of PS are acceptable for developmental courses. A student may take no more than 30 hours of developmental courses and must successfully complete these courses within one year (12 months).
