What is good academic standing and satisfactory progress for financial aid purposes?
• A. Every school must publish standards of good academic standing and satisfactory progress for financial aid purposes. These standards are in the University Bulletin and reflect academic conditions that must be met including: 1. A minimum grade point average 2. A minimum number of credits earned each term 3. A minimum number of cumulative credits earned each payment period The Federal Government requires schools to develop these standards because it wishes to monitor the fact that students make progress toward their educational objective i.e., a baccalaureate degree, etc. These measures insure that reviews take place, and that the institution is in compliance with the regulation.
