19 Tex. Admin. Code § 22.10 - Grade Point Average Calculations for Satisfactory Academic Progress
(a) Each
institution shall calculate grade point average in accordance with
institutional policies.
(b) Subject
to any specific statutory requirements, in determining whether a financial aid
recipient has met the grade point average requirements for satisfactory
academic progress for a given program, an institution may calculate an overall
grade point average based on classes and grade points from that institution
only or based on all classes and grade points previously earned at one or more
other institutions. If the resulting grade point average exceeds the program's
academic progress requirement, an otherwise eligible student may receive an
award in the following academic year.
(c) If a financial aid recipient's grade
point average falls below the satisfactory academic progress requirements and
the student transfers to another institution, or has transferred from another
institution, the receiving institution cannot make a subsequent offer to the
transfer student until the student provides official transcripts of previous
coursework to the current institution's financial aid office and the
institution re-calculates an overall grade-point average, including hours and
grade points for courses taken at the previous and current institutions, that
proves the student's overall grade point average now meets or exceeds the
satisfactory academic progress requirements.
Notes
State regulations are updated quarterly; we currently have two versions available. Below is a comparison between our most recent version and the prior quarterly release. More comparison features will be added as we have more versions to compare.
(a) Grade point average calculations shall be made in accordance with institutional policies.
(b) A grant recipient whose GPA is below program grade point average requirements as of the end of an academic year may appeal his/her grade point average calculation if he/she has taken courses previously at one or more institutions. In the case of such an appeal, the current institution (if presented with transcripts from the previous institutions), shall calculate an overall grade point average counting all classes and grade points previously earned. If the resulting grade point average exceeds the program's academic progress requirement, an otherwise eligible student may receive an award in the following academic year .
(c) If a grant recipient 's grade point average falls below program requirements and the student transfers to another institution, or has transferred from another institution, the receiving institution cannot make a subsequent award to the transfer student until the student provides official transcripts of previous coursework to the current institution's financial aid office and the institution re-calculates an overall grade-point average, including hours and grade points for courses taken at the previous and current institutions, that proves the student's overall grade point average now meets or exceeds program requirements.
