财政援助上诉程序

有时,无法保持学业进步是由于学生无法控制的情况. Students who are no longer eligible to receive financial aid after the completion of their financial aid warning semester because of lack of satisfactory academic progress, 可以向财政援助办公室提交一份令人满意的学业进展申诉.  The appeal is reviewed by the Satisfactory Academic Progress Committee and the appeal could be approved or denied.  如果获得批准, the student is placed on Financial Aid Probation status and the student’s eligibility for aid is reinstated for one payment period (semester).  如果学生在试用学期结束时不能达到令人满意的学业进步, 他们的资助将在下学期暂停.

If, 作为上诉程序的一部分, it is determined that the student should be able to meet the SAP standards by the end of the semester they are on probation status, 不需要学术计划.  如果确定学生需要一个多学期才能达到SAP标准, 学术计划必须由主管学术事务的副校长制定.  如果上诉被批准,该学生将被置于试用状态.  除了, the student’s progress will be measured at the end of each semester to determine if the student is meeting the requirements of the academic plan.  学生是否符合学术计划的要求, the student is eligible to receive federal aid as long as the student continues to meet the requirements of the plan.  Students who fail to meet the requirements of the academic plan will have their aid suspended for the following semester.

财政援助满意的学业进步申诉表可在财政援助办公室获得.  上诉表格描述了上诉被考虑所需的文件.  不完整的上诉表格将不予审核.  Appeals will be reviewed for circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the student that prevented the student from maintaining satisfactory academic progress.  例子包括个人疾病或事故, 或直系亲属患重病或死亡. 如果上诉被拒绝,学生的资助将不会恢复. 学生将被书面告知对其上诉所采取的行动.  Note that a student may submit a maximum of three appeals during their time of study at Emmaus 圣经 College.

恢复财政援助

被暂停资助但不上诉(或上诉被拒绝)的学生, they can reinstate eligibility by paying their own tuition for at least one semester at Emmaus and enrolling in (within one semester) and completing a minimum of 3 学分 with a 2.学期平均成绩0分,成绩2分.0累积绩点.  除了, 学生必须在以马忤斯成功完成67%的累计学分.

额外的信息
  • major的变化可能会改变您的SAP状态.  在以前的专业中获得的不及格成绩可以从学生的累积平均绩点中排除.
  • 不完整的成绩不计入已修学分. The student whose aid is suspended because of incomplete classes may request to have their status re-evaluated when the classes are completed.  Example: A student enrolls for 12 学分 fall semester and receives all incomplete grades and is ineligible for aid due to failure to meet SAP during a probationary semester.  If the student completes the courses by the end of spring semester (and is enrolled in other classes spring semester), he/she may be eligible to receive financial aid for spring semester if the completed coursework meets Satisfactory Academic Progress.  如果在春季学期结束前未完成, 春季学期不提供助学金.
  • 修读补习课程的学生必须证明在补习课程上取得了进步.  学生可以再补习一次补习课程.  补习作业的进度将由主管学术事务的副校长评估.
  • Students do have the option to take courses on a pass/fail basis and such 学分 will 数 toward their enrollment status.  Courses attempted on a pass/fail basis 数 as attempted courses as part of the completion rate measurement but are not factored into the student’s 平均绩点.  Note that the number of courses that can be taken on that basis is very limited and subject to the academic requirements for their program of study (see Academic Catalog for more information).
  • 转学分由教务长和/或系主任评估.  转学分是否被接受并适用于学生的学习计划, 以马忤斯抄本上都有记载.
  • 一旦学生完成了课程的学术要求, 无论是否授予或授予学位或证书, 他们不再有资格获得该项目的额外联邦援助资金.
  • 这个令人满意的学术进步政策也适用于爱荷华州的财政援助计划.
