An important criterion for Federal Aid eligibility is maintaining satisfactory academic progress. Receiving W grades can have a negative impact on a student's completion rate and overall academic progress. Consequently, this should be considered and discussed with the Financial Aid department prior to submitting a leave of absence. Students on a leave of absence are withdrawn from the University for the purpose of Financial Aid. Consequently, loan repayment obligations may be triggered. Students should speak to a representative of the Financial Aid Office for more detailed information about their financial aid status during a leave of absence before submitting a Leave of Absence.
