Back to Menu Financial Assistance Academic Progress Policy Students must be making qualitative and quantitative academic progress to maintain financial assistance eligibility. Students must maintain at least a 3.0 grade point average in master's programs and a 3.1 G.P.A. in doctoral programs to remain in good academic standing. Failure to maintain this average will result in a letter of warning in the first semester after the average fails to meet the standard. Continued failure to attain the minimum G.P.A. can result in academic probation, awarding of a terminal M.A. in the case of doctoral students, or termination from the program.
Students carrying two courses per semester are eligible for reduced financial assistance.
Students carrying one course per semester are not eligible for financial assistance. For a detailed description of the Caspersen School's Quantitative Progress policy, please refer to the Regulations of the Caspersen School, which is available in the Caspersen School Office.
