Students who have attempted more than 150% of the credits required for their degree level are not considered to be making Satisfactory Academic Progress and therefore, are ineligible for financial aid funds.

Students seeking second degrees and students with double majors are monitored like any other student under this policy.

If the student exceeds the maximum timeframe allowed for their respective programs, the student may appeal if they have mitigating circumstances. All transfer hours accepted by NWF State College will be included when determining maximum timeframe eligibility. Students will not have financial aid eligibility if they exceed the maximum timeframe unless an appeal is approved. Students given a maximum timeframe appeal will be placed on a Financial Aid Academic Plan and are required to successfully complete 100% of all future coursework while on the plan.
