Federal financial aid funds are awarded
with the understanding that students will make progress toward their
chosen degree. Palmer College of Chiropractic, as directed by the U.S.
Department of Education, has established guidelines to follow in order
to meet this goal. At Palmer College these standards are also applied to
state, internal and institutional aid programs.
Students
are expected to maintain satisfactory academic progress for each term
of attendance. It is the student's responsibility to achieve
satisfactory academic progress (SAP), and students should seek
assistance from the College's many academic support services in a
consistent and timely manner. Students must be in an eligible degree or
certificate program and maintain qualitative and quantitative
Satisfactory Academic Progress to be eligible to receive financial aid.
Satisfactory Academic Progress is determined at the end of each academic
term.
