Federal and State regulations require that students make satisfactory academic progress in order to receive financial aid.  This means that the student must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0.  In addition, the student must also complete a minimum number of credit hours each term. A detailed description of satisfactory academic progress requirements can be found in the "Madonna University Bulletin” and the “Madonna University Student Financial Aid Handbook”. Note: Withdrawing from classes can have a significant impact on the students satisfactory academic progress.  Therefore, again, students are cautioned against withdrawing without consulting the Financial Aid Office.
