学生 in Jeopardy of Losing Federal 金融援助 Funding

In order for students to receive continued federal funding students must satisfy federally mandated Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) criteria. The SAP standards are generally noted in the College or University’s catalogue and are described on the College website. If students do not meet SAP standards they are only eligible for one additional semester (grace period) of federal aid funding. 然而, during the grace period semester, students are required to raise their GPA and/or the required number of credits accumulated towards their degree, to be considered in good academic standing.
