Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy听

All students are required to maintain satisfactory academic progress (SAP) to remain eligible for financial aid.听 Satisfactory academic progress is evaluated at the end of each payment period for non-term programs with a start date prior to July 1, 2023. For term programs with a start date after July 1, 2023, SAP is evaluated at the completion of each module (which aligns with the payment period) once all grades are finalized.听

Qualitative Measure

A student must maintain a 2.0 GPA cumulatively as well as a 2.0 in current classes if the end of the payment period is before grades are finalized for the module. A student must pass all modules or courses with a minimum grade of 75% based on a scale of 0-100%.

Quantitative Measure

A student must complete at least 67% of all quarter credit hours attempted on a cumulative basis during each evaluation period. Evaluation periods are equal to one payment period.

Maximum Time Frame

A student must complete the entire program within 1.5 times the normal completion rate, or within:

Maximum 135 attempted quarter credit hours for the 90 quarter credit hours BSHS program

Maximum 135 attempted quarter credit hours for the 90 quarter credit hours MRI AAS program

Maximum 136.5 attempted quarter credit hours for the 91 quarter credit hours ST AAS program

Satisfactory academic progress requirements apply to every student whether or not the student is receiving financial aid.听For more detailed information, please see 小优短视频鈥檚 full听SAP Policy.

Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal

If you are ineligible for financial aid because you are not meeting听SAP requirements听due to extenuating circumstances that hindered your academic performance, you may submit a SAP Appeal within five (5) days in order that your eligibility be reconsidered. Please note that submission of a SAP appeal does not guarantee it鈥檚 approval, and you should not assume financial aid eligibility until your appeal is approved.听

In order for a SAP Appeal to be considered, the student must provide the Registrar with a letter that includes:

• Information about the circumstances or events that prevented the student from attaining SAP
• What has changed in the student鈥檚 situation that will allow the student to demonstrate satisfactory academic progress at the next evaluation.

The Records Officer will review only the appeals that have the necessary documentation and are based on:

• Severe illness, medical condition, or injury
• Death of an immediate family member
• Military deployment/call to active duty
• Or other special circumstances which are unlikely to occur

Please email your Appeal Letter including the above content AND documentation of circumstances to 小优短视频鈥檚 Registrar, Inna Baboyan, at inna@cbd.edu.

The method by which students receive any financial aid refund that may be due to them depends on if they are enrolled in a term or non-term program. Generally, if the student became enrolled in their program prior to 7/3/2023 then they are enrolled in a non-term program. If a student became enrolled in their program on 7/3/2023 or after then they are enrolled in a term program.听听
