Appeal Outcomes

Students will receive one of three decisions when they appeal:

  1. Denial – Students whose appeals are denied remain on suspension and will have to pay for their classes.
  2. Probation OT – Students whose appeals are approved will have their financial aid reinstated for one semester. Students must meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) at the end of the next semester of enrollment. Failure to obtain SAP in one term will require the student to receive counseling prior to being entered into the AP status and given two additional terms for SAP obtainment.
  3. Probation AP – Students whose appeals are approved will have their financial aid reinstated for three semesters. These students must meet SAP within three semesters.

All students that are placed on an academic plan will be reviewed after each semester to ensure that progress is being made for that semester. A student not making progress will be placed back on suspension. 

  • Students have 3 semesters to come into compliance with the SAP policy. The SAP policy can be found at www.ogeecheetech.edu/financial-aid/sap
  • Students must earn all satisfactory grades.
  • Students must not withdraw from any class; no W grades. 

All appeals will expire after 5 years.  If students do not complete their plan within this time period, they will be placed back on suspension. There is a max of two appeals.
