Award-Winning Content and Technology Solution Improves Student Understanding of Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements, Creates Self-Service Efficiencies for Students and Staff, and is a Valuable Tool in Achieving Retention and Default Aversion Goals
BOULDER, CO – FATV, a leading supplier of customizable content and technology solutions for college financial aid offices, announced today a new addition to its online network of educational institutions using the GetSAP service.
San Joaquin Delta College (Stockton, CA) is the latest institution to take advantage of GetSAP, a customizable online service that transforms a school’s Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy into a highly engaging, interactive, online video educational experience.
“Before we were using GetSAP, we had an outdated, online power point presentation that students had to go through before obtaining an appeal form to go through the appeal process. Now that we are using GetSAP, the information is always updated and it is much more user-friendly for the students,” said Tina Lent, Director of Financial Aid, Scholarships & Veterans Services at San Joaquin Delta College.
Lent continued: “The students are required to answer questions so we know they are understanding the information and not just clicking through slides in a presentation. It is such a great resource to use for the process, but also to help educate the students.”
“GetSAP enhances any school’s retention plan. By effectively communicating SAP requirements – both proactively and at the point when students are running into difficulty – GetSAP helps students stay on track towards their educational goals,” said Colleen MacDonald Krumwiede, Sr. VP of Innovations and Partners at FATV.
GetSAP is available across multiple platforms: online, mobile, and can be embedded directly on a school’s website. Video content, case studies, calculators and quizzes are customizable and are available on the following topics:
- Proactive SAP Communication
- At-Risk Student Intervention
- Explaining the Appeals Process
- 150% Rule
- Pell Lifetime Eligibility
- State-based programs
