Fifth Year Appeal for Institutional Financial Assistance
If you are a regular full time undergraduate student at RMC receiving institutional financial assistance in
the form of scholarships and/or grants and you are making Satisfactory Academic Progress, your
institutional assistance will remain in effect for either eight or ten semesters depending on the length of
your program of study. The intent of this policy is to assure students understand their responsibility in
planning and completing their first bachelors degree in a timely manner. Occasionally a student has
planned carefully and successfully completed 15 to 16 credits each semester but still needs an additional
semester or two in order to complete their first bachelors degree. Please complete and return this form
to the Financial Aid Office in order to appeal the continuation of your institutional assistance.
