Plain Language Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy

This  Satisfactory Academic Progress policy in plain language was developed by the AStep Program at Minot State University in North Dakota.  It can be used as an example for other programs who wish to create a document that is easier to understand and explains this important policy in plain language.  A copy of the original SAP policy is also included so you can see how the more formal language was simplified using plain language editing.
