Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
听
Why is this happening now?
It鈥檚 important that you, as a student, are able to easily track units you have earned from previous colleges and universities. It鈥檚 also important that Delta is able to track this information. With the new system in place, if you transfer from Delta to another institution, have your official transcript sent from that college to Delta, and submit an Evaluation Request Form, your past coursework will be accurately reflected on your Delta transcript.
听
When will this happen?
This change is starting in early 2024 and will happen gradually over the next six months.
听
Will I be disqualified for financial aid under the Satisfactory Academic Progress rule?听
That depends on how many units are required to earn your degree or certificate. Once you have taken 150 percent of the units required, then you may be disqualified from some forms of financial aid. For example, if your degree requires 60 units and you have taken 90 units, then you have reached the 150 percent limit and you are no longer considered to be making Satisfactory Academic Progress.
听
What forms of financial aid are affected?听
Students may be disqualified from both state and federal financial aid if they are no longer making Satisfactory Academic Progress. However, students can still receive the California College Promise Grant (formerly known as the BOG Fee Waiver)听which provides free tuition for students of certain income levels. Students may also still be eligible for some scholarships.听Please note that听Delta College is required by federal law听to enforce Satisfactory Academic Progress. You may appeal the decision by logging into Student Forms and submitting an SAP appeal.
