Veterans Educational Benefits - Satisfactory Academic Progress

Students are expected to maintain satisfactory academic progress while enrolled at CCCCD. Satisfactory academic progress (SAP) is defined as maintaining a 2.0 cumulative GPA. Students placed on Academic Suspension by the Admissions Department will have their status reported to the Veterans Regional Office at the end of the semester in which that status is earned. A grade of "D" or better received at CCCCD or any other college is a passing grade and may not be repeated for benefits. If a non-punitive grade of "I" is assigned to a course and is not converted to a punitive grade, this will be reported to the VA Regional Office within 30 days and benefits will be reduced accordingly. Students receiving a grade of "F" may repeat the course with benefits one time. If it is necessary to repeat the course again, the student must first successfully complete the course and then request that the CCCCD Financial Aid/Veterans Affairs Office complete the certification. CCCCD may require documentation of attendance from the student for all classes in which a grade of "F" is earned.
