Repeat Coursework Financial Aid Policy

Federal and state regulations limit the number of times a student may repeat a course and receive financial aid for that course.

Ineligible repeated courses will be excluded from counting in the student’s enrollment for financial aid purposes.

• A student may receive aid when repeating a course that was previously failed (received a failing or unsatisfactory grade), regardless of the number of times the course was attempted and failed providing you meet the Satisfactory Academic Progress standards.
• A student may receive aid to repeat a previously passed course (grade of ‘D’ or higher) one additional time. Once a student has completed any course twice with a passing grade (grade of ‘D-’ or higher), he/she is no longer eligible to receive aid for that course.

This rule applies whether or not the student received aid for earlier enrollments in the course.

Important Note: The Office of Financial Aid does not determine if a student may repeat a class, only whether a student may be eligible for financial aid for a repeat class. In addition, every repeated course affects Satisfactory Academic Progress calculations; all repeated courses are counted as attempted credit hours.

 

Disclaimer: The Office of Financial Aid reserves the right to reduce or cancel awards based on funding levels, change in enrollment, reduction in costs, etc.
