Academic Plan
Every student who petitions for reinstatement of financial
aid eligibility must meet with an academic advisor to
develop an academic plan that will ultimately result in
meeting satisfactory academic progress standards.
If your petition is approved, you may modify your plan for
future sessions with approval of your academic advisor
and the Financial Aid Office. Be sure to meet with your
academic advisor if you do not believe you can meet the
terms of the plan.
You must adhere to the plan each and every session. Any
deviation (including withdrawals) will make this plan void
and make you ineligible for financial aid.
Your plan may not exceed six sessions if your academic
deficiency is related to GPA or 2/3 completion. If related t
o
excessive units, you can take more time but must enroll
only in courses required for graduation.
The Financial Aid Office will monitor your
courses/grades/completion each trimester while you are
under the terms of the plan.

Statement of Understanding:
The information I have provided on this petition and related supporting documents is correct and true.
I have met with my academic advisor and agree to the academic plan indicated above.
I have read and understand the Brandman University Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements. I understand that I must
meet or exceed Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements in accordance with the plan. I understand that I have no further
opportunities to petition for reinstatement of assistance regardless of the reason. I understand that I must follow this academic
plan exactly as stated in this petition in order to remain eligible for financial aid. Withdrawal, failure, or an incomplete grade in
any course for any reason will void this plan and result in suspension of financial aid. The plan can be revised for a future
trimester if the modification is approved in advance of the term by my advisor and the Financial Aid Office.
