Maintaining Eligibility

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be completed each year.  Each January the new application, for the upcoming fall semester.

At the end of each semester, the Financial Aid Office will perform a check of your progress towards the completion of your academic program.  We will check to see that you:

  • have a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 or above
    Please note:  some scholarships require a GPA greater than a 2.0; and

  • have successfully completed the minimum number of required attempted credits for which you were enrolled past the add/drop date

    - If you attempted 12 or more credits you must successfully complete at least 12 of those credits

    - If you attempted between 9 and 11.5 credits you must successfully complete at least 9 of those credits

    - If you attempted between 6 and 8.5 credits you must successfully complete at least 6 of those credits

    - If you attempt between .5 and 5.5 credits, you must successfully completed all credits

  • are within 150% of your academic program length
    Example I:        You are in a 60 credit AA degree program, we will check to see that if you have not completed that program that you are within 90 attempted credit hours.

    Example II:       You are in a 24 credit certificate program, we will check to see that if you have not completed that program that you are within 36 attempted credit hours.
