Tennessee Promise students are required to complete community service for each semester they attend college. If you do not complete and submit community service hours to by the deadline, you will lose Tennessee Promise. Deadlines are specific for each semester:
Tennessee Promise students must maintain a full-time enrollment (at least 12 credit hours) and a 2.0 GPA. If you withdraw from class, or simply stop attending class, and drop below 12 credit hours, you will lose Tennessee Promise. Any other financial aid you may receive could also be affected.
Always talk to Financial Aid before you withdraw from or stop attending a class.
If your enrollment drops below full-time, or if you have an official or unofficial withdrawal date due to a documented personal hardship or medical reason, you may submit an appeal to keep Tennessee Promise to the Institutional Review Panel. A dependent or independent student whose appeal is based on financial reasons must provide all supporting documentation attributable to the student. A student cannot appeal for missing the GPA requirement. To appeal, students must submit an appeal form in and provide professional documentation that supports their appeal. If documentation is not provided, your appeal will be denied.
