Quantitative and Qualitative Factors

Factors for measuring the student’s progress toward satisfactory completion of the program include maintaining:

  1. A minimum cumulative theory grade level of 75% or higher.
  2. A minimum cumulative academic level of 75% or higher on practical skill assessments.* 
  3. To determine whether a student meets the academic requirements for Satisfactory Academic Progress, theory and practical grades are averaged together to give a cumulative academic grade of 75% or higher. 
  4. A minimum cumulative attendance of 80% of their scheduled hours**

*To meet the state practical requirements for graduation, students must complete all assigned practical skill assessments. See LEARNING PARTICIPATION GUIDELINES.

**To determine your rate of attendance, divide the cumulative number of hours completed by the scheduled hours to date.

A student who has not achieved the minimum cumulative GPA of 75% and/or who has not successfully completed at least a cumulative rate of attendance of 90% is not eligible for Title IV assistance,  if applicable, unless the student is on warning or has prevailed upon appeal of the determination that has resulted in status of Financial Aid Probation.
