Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy

The Office of Financial Aid Services is responsible for ensuring that all students (both undergraduate and graduate) who are receiving federal, state and institutional financial aid are meeting the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy. In order to continue to receive financial aid, recipients must meet the standards outlined below. At Lewis University an academic year is defined as two semesters of 15 or more weeks (fall and spring). The progress of each student will be reviewed annually after the spring semester. Those students who are placed on “Probation” in the spring will be reviewed again after the fall semester.
