Satisfactory Academic Progress for Financial Aid
To maintain academic eligibility for financial aid, a student must
complete with a passing grade at least 67 percent (two-thirds) of
all credit hours attempted each semester AND maintain a minimum
cumulative grade point average as follows:
0-15 1.50
16-30 1.70
31-44 1.90
45+ 2.00
*Includes grades of A, B, C, D and F. Developmental courses and grades of I, NP and W are computed in the credit hours attempted and completed; however, the grades are not used in computing GPA. A course may be attempted two times for financial aid purposes.
TRCC Financial Aid will only pay for a class twice.
Any student whose cumulative GPA is less than the required minimum GPA for the number of hours attempted and/or who fails to complete 67 percent of the total hours attempted will be placed on financial aid probation for the following semesters. Students on probation will continue to receive federal financial aid. Students who fail to meet satisfactory academic progress any subsequent semester will be placed on financial aid suspension and will be suspended from receiving financial aid benefits. Students have the opportunity to appeal this suspension to the Financial Aid Committee. Once the student regains satisfactory academic progress, the student may reapply for financial assistance. |
