Atticus™ for compliance
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Tracking Software
Satisfactory Academic Progress is one of the most common places schools lose Title IV eligibility — not because students fail, but because the evaluation isn't run consistently or documented. Atticus evaluates SAP every payment period against your published standards and keeps the warnings, probation, and appeal records that prove you did.
How Atticus keeps SAP defensible
Qualitative + quantitative, every period
SAP is measured on grade-based (qualitative) and pace/completion (quantitative) standards plus maximum timeframe — Atticus tracks all three against your policy.
Automatic status and flags
Students who fall below standard are flagged the moment the evaluation runs, so warning and probation notices go out on time.
Appeals and academic plans, documented
Every appeal, decision, and academic plan is captured and linked to the student — the paper trail an auditor asks for.
Audit-ready SAP history
A complete, dated SAP history per student, exportable for accreditor or Department review.
Common questions

What is Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)?
A federal Title IV requirement that students maintain a minimum GPA (qualitative), complete a minimum percentage of attempted credits or hours (quantitative pace), and finish within a maximum timeframe to keep financial-aid eligibility.
How does Atticus track SAP?
It evaluates each student against your published qualitative, quantitative, and maximum-timeframe standards every payment period, assigns status (good standing, warning, probation), and stores the documentation.
Does it handle SAP appeals and academic plans?
Yes — appeals, decisions, and academic plans are recorded and tied to the student so the full history is defensible.
