TEACH Grant
Students who receive the TEACH Grant must earn a minimum 3.25 cumulative GPA at the end of each term to receive TEACH Grant funding in the next term in which they enroll. A student who scores above the 75th percentile on one or more portions of a college admissions test does not need to meet the minimum GPA criteria for renewal. The student must provide supporting documentation.
Students enrolled in the MFA program in Creative Writing may only qualify for TEACH Grant funding by scoring in the 75th percentile on a college admissions test as this program uses a 'satisfactory' or 'unsatisfactory' grading policy. A grade of 'satisfactory' is generally equivalent to a 3.0, which is not sufficient to receive federal TEACH Grant funding.
