Satisfactory Academic Progress

Once you have received your financial aid, 为了保持这些奖励,你必须在学业上保持令人满意的学业进步. If you do not make satisfactory academic progress toward your degree, you could lose your financial aid. 如果你在接受资助期间被判犯有与毒品有关的罪行,你也可能失去你的经济援助.

Determining Satisfactory Academic Progress

用于确定令人满意的学业进展的措施是由联邦法律规定的, and your progress is evaluated annually to make sure you qualify. As required by federal student aid regulations, after reviewing all student transcripts, 通知将发给任何未达到令人满意的学业进步标准的学生. Then, that student becomes ineligible for financial aid. 在这种情况下,任何学生都被告知必须改进的成绩单部分. 学生可以对不符合经济援助资格的决定提出上诉,并被要求提交 Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Appeal Form to the Office of Financial Aid.

如果您希望获得经济援助“试用”并继续获得一个学期的经济援助,则必须提交此请求. The appeal must be due to an 受伤 or illness of the student, 亲人的死亡, or other special circumstances. 申诉信必须解释学生未能取得令人满意的学业进步的原因. 学生还应解释他/她的情况发生了哪些变化,这些变化将使他/她在经济援助“试用”学期结束时取得令人满意的学业进步.

Bear in mind that some Harvey Mudd scholarships carry their own requirements, such as full-time attendance (12 credits per semester), and may be available for only eight semesters. 因此, 即使你的学业成绩符合联邦学生援助规定, 你可能没有资格获得哈维马德奖学金,因为其中一些奖项是由一套不同的标准决定的. 太阳2注册平台续期的要求,请参考每一项哈维·穆德奖的要求.

质量进展(GPA)

定性进步指的是你在课堂上所做的工作的质量, as indicated by your cumulative grade point average (GPA). According to federal regulations, by the end of your second year (measured in time, 非年级水平), 你的累积平均成绩必须符合太阳2平台的毕业要求. In most cases, this is a cumulative 2.00平均绩点.

在Harvey Mudd, qualitative progress is tracked by the Scholarly Standing Committee, 哪个学校每学期评估成绩单以确保学生顺利毕业. 同样的评估也被财政援助办公室用于我们对联邦援助资格的年度评估.

Quantitative Progress (timely completion of course credits)

To remain eligible for federal aid, 你还必须参加适当数量的课程,以确保及时毕业. 在Harvey Mudd, 我们预计需要四年(八个学期)才能完成学位要求. 我们的整个学术计划和对学生的支持服务都是围绕这一期望展开的. 在少数情况下, it may take longer (for example, you decide to take a leave of absence from the College). 在所有情况下, 你需要以书面形式向经济援助办公室提出上诉,以便在哈维马德参加第九或第十学期的学习. 在你的上诉信中, 包括你没有在八个学期内完成课程的原因和你的学术计划. 五个学年(10个学期)是完成本科课程的最长时间.

If you entered Harvey Mudd prior to the fall 2017 semester, to graduate in 10 semesters with 128 credits, you must complete an average of 25.6 credits per academic year, or 12.每学期8学分. 学生 who do not meet the 25.每学年要求6学分的学生将无法获得经济资助.

如果你在一个学期内退了所有课程(这样就不能计算GPA了), 根据联邦法规,财政援助办公室有义务在考虑获得学位的量化进展时考虑所尝试的学分.

其他的考虑

太阳2平台在确定令人满意的学业进展时也考虑以下因素:

当我们监控你的量化进度时,我们会计算完成的平均学分数. If you withdraw from a course (but remain enrolled in some Harvey Mudd courses), we will not include that withdrawn course in the calculation.

  • 未完成课程的学分将不包括在内,直到课程已经完成,哈维马德注册官已经公布了一个成绩.
  • 重修课程的学分将包括在毕业要求的课程中.
  • 克莱蒙特学院以外的暑期学校课程和哈维马德的转学课程将只包含在令人满意的学业进展中. 然而, 你必须事先得到哈维·马德学院系主任的书面许可. Permission must be requested prior to registration. Upon completion of the summer session, 你应该要求学院把成绩单寄给哈维·马德注册处. 在暑期学校课程中获得的成绩不计入你在哈维马德的累积平均成绩.
  • 一旦你获得了毕业所需的学分,并且满足了所有其他学位要求, you may not continue to receive financial aid to continue studies at Harvey Mudd. 然而, 如果你有足够的学分毕业,但还没有达到所有学位要求,你仍然可以获得资助. If you change your academic major, 你必须在哈维马德的五年学习期间完成新专业的所有学位要求.
  • If you lose financial aid eligibility, 在恢复财政援助资格之前,您必须满足年级的课程学分要求.
  • 如果你失去了经济援助资格,你可以书面申请恢复. 在这种情况下, it is important to document any extenuating circumstances such as illness, 受伤, death in the family or other reasons. The Office of Financial Aid will review appeals on an individual basis, 恢复援助资格适用于上诉被批准的学期. Eligibility will not be retroactive. 因此, 请确保在申诉信中包括你的学术计划,并将其转发给财政援助办公室.
