Standards of Progress for Veterans

If you are receiving VA education benefits and the Hazlewood Act Exemption, you must maintain satisfactory academic progress in accordance with current Del Mar College Financial Aid Policy.

Protect Your Financial Aid

Federal regulations require educational institutions to review the academic progress of all students applying for student financial assistance. Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) must be maintained in order to receive aid. A student’s academic process is evaluated after each long semester and summer term with the following standards as mandated by the federal regulations:

  • Qualitative (Grades and Cumulative Grade Point Average)
  • Quantitative (Maximum Time Frame for completion)

This review will include all periods of the student’s enrollment, even those for which the student did not receive financial aid. Students are expected to be continuously aware of their grades.
