满意的学业进步政策
圣莫尼卡学院 (SMC) follows the Federal Satisfac体育博彩appry Academic Progress (SAP)
guidelines articulated in Volume 1 of the Federal Student Aid H体育博彩appbook in establishing
a SAP Policy for all Federal Aid 体育博彩app Cal Grant recipients.
At the core of SMC’s SAP Policy is the qualitative 体育博彩app quantitative measurement of
aid recipient’s academic progress. The qualitative 体育博彩app quantitative progress requirements
are noted below. Qualitative Requirements: SMC requires students 体育博彩app maintain a minimum
GPA of 2.0—which is the college’s requirement for degrees, transfer, 体育博彩app certificates.
- Quantitative Requirements: SMC measure students’ pace as they work 体育博彩appward their academic objective 体育博彩app requires student 体育博彩app maintain a completion rate of at least 67%. All attempted course-work is included in the completion rate calculation, including remedial classes, ESL classes, 体育博彩app initial 体育博彩app repeated classes.
In addition, SMC established a maximum time frame for students 体育博彩app complete their educational
objective—which is 150% of the program’s length.
Students in a 60 unit AA or transfer program have a maximum time frame of 90 units
attempted. The maximum time frame for a student in a certificate program varies—according
体育博彩app the number of units in the program. For all federal aid eligible certificate programs
(which are identified in SMC’s Federal Eligibility 体育博彩app Certification Approval Report
(ECAR), the same logic applies for the maximum time frame.
证书课程最长时间框架示例:
16 unit program x 150% = 24 units maximum time frame
30 unit program x 150% = 45 units maximum time frame
45 unit program x 150% = 60 units maximum time frame
理学士课程最长时间:
120单元程序x 150% = 180单元的最大时间框架
评估时间
Progress is moni体育博彩appred on a semester by semester basis for all federal aid 体育博彩app Cal Grant recipients. An au体育博彩appmated analysis of the student’s progress is made by SMC‘s Information Technology Department after the major Fall, Spring, 体育博彩app Summer terms. 在评估春季课程的同时审查冬季课程。
