A week ago, I received an email stating that I’ve been disqualified from receiving financial aid for not meeting my school’s 67% completion rate. But I am very puzzled because the number of attempted units might be incorrect. On the financial aid section, it states that I’ve attempted 8 units during the spring (probationary term) and 22 units in the fall; however, the attempted/completed units on my transcripts is 15. The numbers do not seem to add up. Here’s why:
During the fall 2014 term, I was enrolled in 11 units. I dropped my 5 unit Math course, and passed the other two 3 unit courses with A’s. During the spring 2015 term, I dropped the math course again, but successfully completed 9 units with A’s. However, prior to dropping the math course, I spoke to a counselor whom assured me that I’d be in great standing if I successfully completed four units during the summer. (I am currently enrolled in six)
The school’s equation to determine the pace rate is units attempted/units completed. 15/15 is 1. The financial aid counselor I’ve spoke to stated that I had a 60% pace rate. It doesn’t add up, I’m so puzzled.
What is going on?
