Satisfactory Academic Progress

To comply with federal and state requirements, California State University, San Bernardino established an Annual Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Policy. This policy applies reasonable standards for measuring whether a student, is maintaining SAP toward the completion of his/her educational objective.

During this review, which is conducted every summer, student academic progress will be reviewed in the following areas:

• Qualitative Standard: students must maintain good academic standing by meeting the GPA requirements as they are outlined in the Financial Aid Office Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy and
• Quantitative Standard: comparing the number of units attempted versus the number of units earned on an annual basis and time limits to complete a degree on a cumulative basis (see Eligibility and Duration of Eligibility in the SAP Policy section).

Failure to meet SAP standards in these areas will constitute ineligibility to receive financial aid.

Students who fail to make satisfactory academic progress will be notified via their CSUSB e-mail address, via U.S. Postal mail and via their MyCoyote.
