Standards for Satisfactory Progress
All students (full and part-time) must meet the following minimum standards of academic achievement and successful course completion to remain in attendance at Hunter Business School and continue to receive federal student aid. Hunter Business School will consider both a student’s grade point average (qualitative progress) and rate of progression (pace) through his or her program (quantitative progress). A student’s progress will be evaluated at the end of each payment period to determine satisfactory academic progress. At the end of each payment, period an evaluation of the student’s pace will be completed to determine if the student can successfully complete the program within the maximum timeframe of 150% of the standard program length.
A student must progress through his or her program at a pace of 67% or higher. Pace is calculated by dividing the cumulative number of successfully completed hours by the cumulative number of attempted hours.
A student must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0.
Students are expected to complete all program requirements by their scheduled end (graduation) date. However, an extension may be granted, not to exceed 150% of the standard program hours. For example, the maximum timeframe in which to complete a 600-hour program is 900 hours. An evaluation will be conducted when a student successfully completes the clock hours in the payment period. If it becomes apparent that the student cannot complete the program within the maximum timeframe, the student will not be allowed to continue, regardless of whether or not he or she is receiving financial aid. At the point the student successfully completes the scheduled clock hours in that payment period, financial aid will be disbursed if the student is making satisfactory progress.
