Reason for suspension (check all that apply). Refer to your suspension letter or contact the
Financial Aid Office if you are unsure why you are suspended from financial aid.
GPA
You have a cumulative grade
point average of less than a 2.0
(a C average).
Grade point values are A = 4.0,
B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0. In the
case of a repeat course, both grades will
appear on the transcript but only the
last grade posted for the repeat course
is calculated in the cumulative GPA.
Completion Rate
You have not completed at least
67 percent of your attempted
course work.
Completion rate is calculated by
dividing completed coursework by all
attempted hours. The completion rate
calculation includes the following:
Withdraw (W), fail (F), incomplete (I),
not reported (NR), Progress (PR) and
audit (AU) and transfer hours. It also
includes hours for which a student did
not receive financial aid.
Maximum Time Frame
You have exceeded the number
of attempted hours required to
complete your program of study
by approximately 20%.
All attempted college level hours are
included in the Maximum Timeframe
Calculation. Preparatory coursework
is not used to calculate attempted hours.
Please refer to the Completion Rate
box for definitions of attempted
coursework.
Only ONE term may be appealed at a time. Please indicate the term and year you are appealing to receive aid.
