Satisfactory progress is measured at the end of each academic semester.
A student achieving at least the minimums specified below will be considered to be making satisfactory academic progress. For students enrolled in a master's degree or the juris doctorate program, the student has been enrolled for no more than five calendar years from the beginning of the semester in which the program was initially begun. For students enrolled in a doctoral program, the student has been enrolled for no more than seven calendar years from the beginning of the semester in which the program was initially begun. A student placed on academic probation is automatically on financial aid probation. That is, a student in this category may receive financial aid for the next term of enrollment, but must meet the above stated minimums by the end of that time period.
