Satisfactory Academic Progress
Students attending Mitchell Technical Institute must be making satisfactory progress toward the completion of their academic goal—to obtain a degree or a diploma. Regular and punctual attendance is necessary. Active and committed class participation is required. To maintain financial aid, a student must have satisfactory progress. Full-time students receiving federal financial aid have a maximum of three semesters to complete two-semester programs and six semesters to complete four-semester programs. Part-time students’ completion schedules will be prorated accordingly.
Students must successfully complete at least 67% of the credits attempted each semester in order to complete graduation requirements within the 150% time frame. Students who do not successfully complete 67% of 12 or more credits for two semesters may be suspended from financial aid.
A student must maintain a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0. This review takes place at the end of fall, spring and summer semesters.
Repeated courses are considered as normal credit hours and count towards the maximum time and enrollment status for a given semester. Students should note that financial aid will only cover the cost of one repeat of a previously passed course with a grade of A, B, C or D.
Failure of a pre-requisite course may have an impact on a student’s ability to continue in a subsequent semester.
Students’ academic and attendance records are available through the MyMTI web portal at any time. All students are strongly encouraged to monitor their own academic progress and ask their academic adviser any questions they may have.
