Indicators of Progress

Financial aid satisfactory academic progress (SAP) is measured “qualitatively” and "quantitatively.”

Quality of work is measured by cumulative grade point average (GPA) resulting from work done at Carroll College.

Quantity of work is measured against a maximum timeframe in which the student must complete the educational objective. The quantitative measurement requires designation of a minimum amount of work a student must successfully complete (credit hours earned) by the end of designated periods of enrollment (full-time equivalent semesters). The quantitative measure is cumulative for all periods of enrollment and for all schools attended, including periods of enrollment in which students did not receive federal student financial assistance.
