Institutional Hardship Policy for TEG Funds

OLLU may allow a student to receive TEG renewal without maintaining the required 2.5 GPA or completing the minimum 24 hours coursework under the following conditions:

  1. Documentation of a severe illness that affected the student's academic performance.
  2. Documentation that the student is responsible for the care of a sick, injured, or needy person that affected his or her academic performance; or
  3. Documentation of a debilitating condition (including non-physical health issues) that affected the student's academic performance.

Students not meeting the requirements for TEG renewal, but who would like to appeal, must complete the TEG Hardship Appeal form.
