Financial Aid Policies at Massasoit

Understanding the policies that govern financial aid is just as important as applying for it. At Massasoit Community College, we want you to be fully informed about the rules and responsibilities that come with receiving federal, state, and institutional aid. This section outlines key guidelines that affect your eligibility, your academic standing, and how financial aid is managed throughout your time at Massasoit.

Topics include the Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy, which outlines the academic standards students must meet to continue receiving aid, as well as information about attendance and withdrawal, Return of Title IV funds, and the definition of the academic year. You’ll also find guidance on how repeating courses may affect your aid eligibility.

In addition, we encourage students to review their rights and responsibilities, our Financial Aid Code of Conduct. These policies are in place to ensure fair treatment, compliance with federal regulations, and support for your long-term academic success. Be sure to review each page carefully to stay informed and remain in good standing with your aid.
