Financial Aid Warning Period

If a student is denied financial aid based on SAP status, that denial takes precedence over any previous award notification he or she may have received previously. Students not meeting the minimum standards at the end of a semester receive a financial aid warning for the next semester. Students may continue to receive financial aid for this probationary period. Students failing to meet the minimum SAP standards by the end of the probationary period are placed on financial aid suspension.

For further information on the SAP policy, please consult the University of Holy Cross website at http://uhcno.edu/finaid/satisfactory-academic-progress.html

Students who are suspended from federal student financial aid programs for their failure to meet these minimum standards can file an appeal with the Financial Aid Office. The Appeal Form is available online at http://uhcno.edu/finaid/docs/16-17/Satisfactory-Academic-Progress-Appeal- Appeals-Form.pdf
