Sufficient Progress
The Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy requires sufficient academic progress toward a
degree on both academic good standing (GPA) and sufficient progress (percent of progress) bases. The
standard of academic good standing is defined within the university's Academic Standards Policy. The
standard of sufficient progress for financial aid eligibility is the successful completion of 75 percent of the
cumulative number of registered credits at IUP. Registered credits are the number of credits for which a
student is enrolled at the end of the Drop/Add period. (For a student who was originally registered and
charged at full-time status and who reduced during Drop/Add to part-time status, the registered credits will
be calculated as twelve.)
A student who meets the standard of academic good standing of the Academic Standards Policy but who does not meet the standard of sufficient quantitative progress may continue in university registration but without financial aid eligibility for the federal Title IV aid programs.
A full statement of requirements for Satisfactory Academic Progress for Title IV Federal Student Assistance is available through the Financial Aid Office.
