To receive both federal and state aid a student has to show that they are making satisfactory progress toward the completion of a degree. Though the federal and state satisfactory academic progress (SAP) policies have similar components each measures progress differently.
The federal and state policies for both graduates and undergraduates are detailed here and in the college cataloge. Students who become ineligible can often appeal for a waiver of the policy. However, once a student reaches the TAP/APTS limits or federal aid limits there are no appeals. Students readmitted after being granted clemency need to be mindful that their aid eligibility is still at risk.
