The Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Appeal deadline is Wednesday, July 21st.
If you are not meeting SAP standards, you may submit an appeal to be considered for one semester of financial aid probation. Your appeal must describe the circumstance(s) that impacted your ability to meet SAP standards as well as outline your plans and ability to succeed in future semesters and bring yourself within standards. Appeal circumstances may include injury or illness, death of a relative, caring for ill relatives, or other special circumstances that impacted your academic success. If you choose to submit an appeal, complete both the Appeal and the Academic Plan.
Plan accordingly to be in contact with Grace Castle (castl@umbc.edu) in order to obtain signature and feedback on your Academic Plan BEFORE Wednesday 21 July.
