Reinstatement of Aid
Reinstatement of financial aid may be achieved as follows:
- The student submits a written letter of appeal in accordance with the appeals process and the Financial Aid Appeals Committee approves the appeal. The student is placed on financial aid probation for one semester or on an academic plan, and is allowed to maintain their aid eligibility. SAP will be reviewed at the end of that semester; or
- The student enrolls in courses at Hood College, pays for tuition and fees without the help of student aid and does well enough in the coursework to satisfy all of the satisfactory academic progress standards. The student must notify the Office of Financial Aid if they are planning to attend Hood College without the assistance of financial aid; or
- The student may enroll in summer courses to eliminate the deficiency in credits or GPA. The student must notify the Office of Financial Aid if they are planning to take classes during the summer to eliminate the deficiency. Students can only take classes at Hood College and cannot take classes at another institution to resolve a GPA deficiency.
A student whose eligibility has been suspended may regain eligibility at the end of any term after which they meet the above criteria.
Students who have been placed on suspension cannot skip a semester to regain eligibility. No financial aid will be disbursed during subsequent semesters for students on suspension.
