To remain eligible for financial aid at 中央卡罗莱纳技术学院, 学生必须取得合理的学业进步才能获得学位, 文凭, 或证书. Satisfactory Academic Progress is a federal government requirement and is measured by a number of factors including the following:
累积平均绩点-(定性测量)

  • 学生必须保持累积平均绩点(GPA) 2.00 (C)或更高，以保持有资格获得经济援助.
  • At the end of the first semester in which a student’s cumulative GPA is less than 2.00时，将给予警告处分. 在警告期间，助学金将继续提供.
  • 如置于“警告”, a student is required to meet with his/her advisor during the next semester of attendance and prepare a Student Progress Plan to outline the student’s academic plan for at least 3 semesters, 如果适用的话. 未提交的学生将没有资格对停学提出上诉.
  • 如果累积绩点低于2分.00 (C) during the probationary period, the student will be placed on 金融援助 Suspension.

累积学时-(定量计算)

  • A student must successfully pass 67% of the cumulative hours attempted including DVS and transfer hours.
  • Students who do not pass at least 67% of their cumulative hours will be placed on Warning; any time a student fails to pass 67% of attempted hours thereafter, 他/她将被暂停经济援助.
  • 如置于“警告”, a student is required to meet with his/her advisor during the next semester of attendance and prepare a Student Progress Plan to outline the student’s academic plan for at least 3 semesters, 如果适用的话. 未提交的学生将没有资格对停学提出上诉.
  • If a student receives a W, I, WF, or an F, the student does not pass the hours. 这些成绩构成了67%的完成要求.

最高课程时数-(定量计算)

  • A student may only receive financial aid for a limited number of credit hours. Eligibility for financial aid is terminated after a student has attempted 150% of the hours required for his or her program required hours.
  • The attempted hours include all course work taken at CCTC (including DVS) and transfer credits accepted by the college.
  • 最大课程时数的度量是特定于课程的.
  • A student transferring from another institution will have all credits accepted by CCTC considered toward the 150% maximum hours.
  • Students who are within 15 credit hours of the maximum allowed by their program of study will be placed on Danger status, and should contact the aid office if they will need more hours to complete the program of study.
  • 如果置于“危险”, a student is required to meet with his/her advisor during the next semester of attendance and prepare a Student Progress Plan to outline the student’s academic plan for at least 3 semesters, 如果适用的话. 未提交的学生将没有资格对停学提出上诉.

首次申请经济援助的申请人
学生有可能没有资格获得资助, 基于学业进步, 甚至在学生申请之前. (CCTC looks at a student’s complete enrollment history to establish eligibility regardless of the student’s past application.)
例外/上诉/复职
Exceptions to this policy will be reviewed based on an appeals process under the umbrella of professional judgment. Students with documented appeals may be given exceptions on a case-by-case basis. 复职必须提出书面申诉并经批准.

  • A student on financial aid suspension may appeal by completing a 金融援助 Appeal Form, (available on the college’s web site) indicating reasons why he or she did not meet the requirements.
  • Acceptable reasons for appeal include circumstances which the student could not have foreseen at the beginning of the term, and which are completely beyond the control of the student such as: personal illness, 家庭困难, 家庭成员死亡或患重病. 学生必须提供适当的文件支持上诉. In addition, the student should have a Student Progress Plan submitted along with the appeal. The SPP requires the student to meet with the academic advisor during the next semester of attendance and outline the student’s academic plan for at least 3 semesters, 如果适用的话. Students failing to submit the SPP will not be eligible to appeal suspensions. 不完整的申诉文件将未经处理退还给学生.
  • 上诉截止日期将于每学期开始前公布, 以及发给学生的休学通知. Appeals must be submitted to the 金融援助 Office in writing and accompanied by appropriate documentation no later than the published deadline for the semester in which the student is requesting aid. 逾期的上诉将在下一个学期进行处理.
  • Students are limited to two financial aid appeals at 中央卡罗莱纳技术学院.
  • 最初, the appeal will be reviewed by the Director of 金融援助 and/or the Satisfactory Progress Coordinator to determine the merit of the appeal. If appropriate, the appeal will be forwarded to the 金融援助 Appeal Committee.
  • 上诉决定将在上诉截止日期后一周内作出. 学生将通过myCCTC的电子邮件收到通知.
  • Students may have their financial aid reinstated with the approval of an appeal. Students reinstated by appeal will have to adhere to prescribed guidelines established by the Director of 金融援助 or the Appeal Committee.
  • 财政援助上诉委员会的所有决定都是最终决定. Students whose appeals are denied must regain eligibility prior to receiving additional financial assistance.

Summary

  • It is the student’s responsibility to monitor his/her status for Satisfactory Academic Progress. 这可以使用学生的myCCTC帐户完成. The status is updated at the end of each semester, once grades are finalized in Student Records.
  • At the end of each semester the 金融援助 Office will review the GPA, 已获得学时, 最大工作时间, 并通知学生警告, Danger and Suspension as quickly as possible via myCCTC email; students who are suspended will also be notified via the US Postal 服务.
  • Students on suspension will be ineligible for all Title IV financial aid, including loans.
