(d) The academic standing and progress of all students receiving State financial assistance must be monitored by institutions at least once a year, prior to the fall semester.
(e) Students who fail to achieve the standards set forth in this section shall be ineligible to receive State financial assistance under the programs administered by the Authority until such time as the institution certifies that they are in good academic standing and are achieving satisfactory academic progress.
(f) The institution shall share with the Authority any material findings or audit exceptions related to the determination of academic progress at any time they are revealed in the course of an audit or program review.
