In addition to meeting the semester requirements, students must also meet the following cumulative requirements:

1. Completion Rate:

Attempted Credits	Minimum Required Completion Rate
0-24	50%
25-47	57%
48 and above	67%

For example, a student who has attempted 24 credits must have a cumulative completion rate of at least 50% (credits complete divided by credits attempted). For students enrolled in certificate programs less than two years in length, qualitative progress is defined as a 67% completion rate at all times.

2. GPA Requirements:
Financial aid recipients must have a cumulative GPA of at least a 2.0 at the end of their second academic year (that is, after attempting 48 semester credit hours).

3. 150% Completion Rate:
The student must complete his or her educational program within a time frame no longer than 150% of the published length of the educational programs (for example, completed his or her program after attempting a maximum of 90 credits for a 60 credit program).

Required development courses are calculated into the GPA and are counted as regular course work. Required  developmental courses will be added onto the program length when determining compliance with the 150% of program length completion requirement. Federal regulations require that Financial Aid Services track the academic progress of financial aid recipients from the first date of enrollment, whether or not financial aid was received. Credits transferred from another institution will be considered as attempted and completed credits in the evaluation of the 150% program completion standards.
