The policy became effective January 9, 1984. Students are encouraged to review the policy in its entirety and be aware of the implications it may have for them. The Financial Aid Office is required by federal regulations to monitor the satisfactory progress of all periods of instruction at Concordia for a student not just those periods of instruction in which a student receives aid. This policy establishes guidelines to encourage students to successfully complete courses during semesters for which aid is received .
Successful completion means receiving a passing grade in the course.
Course incompletes, withdrawals and repetitions do not count toward completion. The student will be notified in writing of the final determination of the appeal. Transfer credit hours if earned while the student is a Concordia student and if accepted by the Concordia University registrar, may also be counted toward removal of the deficiency for the number of successfully completed hours, but do not change Concordia s CGPA other than the effect of removing a failing grade from the previous calculation. Your official CGPA is derived from courses taken at Concordia University Eligibility for federal and institutional aid will be reinstated when a student presents the Director of Financial Aid with an official transcript from the registrar verifying the satisfactory removal of the deficiencyAll courses taken at Concordia University while a student is under financial aid suspension shall be at the student s own expense. Concordia offers six basic types of scholarships for which students may qualify.
