Eligible students receive a Financial Aid Agreement Letter, outlining awards being offered, and terms and conditions of the awards. Non-eligible students are notified in writing of the reasons why aid was refused, and may appeal this decision by directing a request for reconsideration, in writing, to the Financial Aid Office. Students enrolling on a non-degree seeking basis are not eligible for financial aid. Some financial aid programs will not cover the College's Certificate Programs. Enrollment Status Eligibility for financial aid awards is contingent upon enrollment status throughout the semester.
Some programs require students to maintain full-time status.
Other programs require that students maintain at least half-time enrollment. In most cases, award amounts are dependent upon enrollment status. Adjustments in enrollment status either between or during semesters will result in adjustments to award amounts or cancellation of awards. Satisfactory Academic Progress To continue to be eligible for financial aid, a student is required, by federal regulations, to maintain satisfactory academic progress in the course of study he or she is pursuing. This policy was written to comply with current federal regulations and became effective with the 1996-97 academic year.
