Qualitative Standard: Financial Aid Minimum Grade Point Average (GPA)

Students must maintain a 2.0 grade point average (GPA) during each semester of enrollment as well as a cumulative average of 2.0 to remain eligible for aid. Should the student’s GPA drop below a cumulative average of 2.0 the following actions will be taken:

  • The first time the GPA drops below 2.0 the student will be placed on financial aid warning for the following semester enrolled.
  • At the end of the warning semester, if the student’s GPA is 2.0 or above, the student will be removed from warning status and returned to satisfactory. If after one semester the GPA is still below a cumulative average of 2.0, the student will be placed on suspension and will not be eligible for financial aid until the student’s GPA meets the 2.0 standard or has an approved appeal on file.
