Maximum Hours
You are expected to complete degree requirements
within a reasonable time frame, currently dened
as attempting no more than 134% of the credit
hours required for your degree program. This is the
maximum number of credit hours a student may
have and receive nancial aid. All transfer coursework
accepted by the University is included in this total
even if it does not apply to your academic major.
SAP notification and appeal policy
SAP is reviewed at the end of each semester for
undergraduate programs. If you fail to meet SAP
minimums you will be given a warning semester.
During that semester you will be eligible for nancial
aid. After the semester of warning, if you are not
meeting SAP minimums, you will no longer be eligible
to receive nancial aid. You will be informed of the
reason(s) for the loss of eligibility and the conditions
that must be met before your nancial aid eligibility
may be reinstated.
You may appeal loss of eligibility if you have
experienced extenuating circumstances that
impacted your academic performance. However,
the submission of an appeal is only a request and
does not guarantee it will be granted or aid will
be reinstated. For more information on SAP visit
nancialaid.tamu.edu.
Enrollment Status (Courses that Count)
All nancial aid oers are based on full-time
enrollment. However, most nancial aid programs we
oer require students to be registered at least half-
time. Students may receive federal nancial aid only
for eligible courses that count towards their program
of study. State and institutional aid are not subject
to the same restrictions. Students enrolled less than
full-time in courses that count towards their program
of study should contact our oce to determine the
impact on scholarship and nancial aid eligibility as
aid and cost of attendance may be prorated based on
the number of hours of enrollment.
For example: A Federal Pell Grant recipient is enrolled
in 12 hours, and 9 hours of the 12 hours are required
for their program of study. The recipient will receive
their Federal Pell Grant based on 9 hours. Their
Federal Pell Grant payment and cost of attendance
will be reduced based on courses that count/apply to
their degree program.
