We cannot stress enough the importance of submitting grades on time for the financial aid process of satisfactory academic progress (SAP). SAP is a Department of Education-mandated process completed each semester to determine if a student maintained minimum standards during the semester to continue receiving financial assistance. We have had instances in the past where not all grades were submitted on time and ineligible students were permitted to receive aid. It was not until all grades were in that they were determined to be ineligible, and we had to bill the student and return funds to the Department of Education. This is a disservice to students and increases college liability. With students potentially allowed to purchase books when we return January 2, all grades need to be in before the break so that we can complete the SAP process to prevent noneligible students from receiving aid. Thanks for your help. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
