Student financial aid applicants must satisfy certain requirements in order to be able to receive and continue to use financial aid. These requirements include, but are not limited to:

• fulfillment of all admission requirements;
• submission of all documentation requested by the College or lender(s) or both;
• regular, verifiable attendance and not being in danger of being dropped;
• satisfactory academic progress in accordance with College policy;
• remain as a student in good standing;
• completion of "aid specific" requirements, such as entrance loan counseling.

In addition, graduating students who received student loans must attend exit loan counseling sessions and meet all other graduation requirements before they will be considered a graduate and awarded a degree, diploma, or certificate. Withdrawing students who used any loans must attend exit counseling.


Federal regulations require that students receiving financial aid must satisfactorily progress toward completion of the appropriate degree or diploma. In addition, institutions must establish a maximum time-frame within which the student must complete his/her educational objective. The progress of financial aid recipients is evaluated according to (1) a periodic review of academic standing and (2) a periodic review of credit hours earned.
