Student Financial Services (SFS) is required by federal regulations to monitor student progression toward completion of degree and certificate programs at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels. The Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standard includes a quantitative (PACE and Program Length) and qualitative (GPA-based) measure of progress.
The quantitative regulation states that you must maintain a specific pace intended to help you earn your degree within the maximum time frame. You are required to earn at least 67% of your attempted credits to ensure you earn your degree within 150% of the program's credit length. The qualitative measure requires maintaining a GPA that meets the minimum standard necessary to maintain Academic Good Standing according to Temple University policy (refer to the Undergraduate Academic Warning, Probation and Dismissal Policy information). Graduate students should refer to their college for GPA requirements.
Please review the Undergraduate Academic Warning, Probation, Dismissal Policy for details regarding GPA requirements.
