Greetings Parents and Families,
JCSU welcomed back returning students with great enthusiasm in anticipation for a successful
semester. Spring semester is an opportunity for students to start fresh by setting new academic and
personal goals. At the same time, parents should foster an attitude of self-advocacy as they
encourage their student(s) to seek out the myriad of on-campus resources such as advising,
tutoring, career services, health and wellness, residence life, and student activities. No matter
where students are on their educational journey, parents and families still play an integral role in
helping to shape their destinies.
As spring break is just around the corner, begin asking your student about plans for summer; will
they come home, get a job, internship, or go to summer school? When parents make sure their
student(s) know that they are still a part of the family, and are loved and thought about, these
sentiments often serve as a supportive reminder that will help them reach their goals!
Sincerely,
Cathy Jones, Ph.D.

From the Office of Student Financial Aid…
The Financial Aid Office is proud to be a contributor to the JCSU Parent Newsletter. Our goal is
to provide important information to the parents of our students that will help you navigate
through the financial aid process.
January 1, 2016 the new Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) became available
for students and parents to complete for the 2016-2017 academic year. This is a good time while
your son/daughter is home for the break to discuss completing the financial aid application.
How to Apply for Financial Aid
To apply for financial aid you must complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA). The application is available online at www.fafsa.gov. All information should be as
complete and accurate as possible. The FAFSA must be received by the processor by March 15
to receive priority consideration for certain types of financial aid. Students may still apply for aid
after the priority date; however, aid will be awarded on a funds available basis. Important: The
School Code 002936 must be used on the FAFSA/Renewal FAFSA to insure that information is
released to Johnson C. Smith University.
Remember you must reapply for financial aid each year
If a valid email address was provided on the current FAFSA, the Department of Education will
send a Renewal Reminder prompting students/parents to file their 2016-2017 FAFSA. Any
student who has a current FAFSA may complete the renewal application by accessing the federal
website at www.fafsa.gov.
NEW: Effective May 10, 2015, The Federal student and parent PIN used to complete the FAFSA
was replaced with the FSA ID. The new FSA ID consists of a user-created username and
password to electronically access personal information on Federal Student Aid Web sites,
including FAFSA on the Web.

open/close dates and required documentation. To apply for a UNCF scholarship, you must apply
through the on-line application process https://scholarships.uncf.org/Registration/RegisterCheck.
Many of the UNCF scholarships require that the scholarship recipient apply for Federal Student
Aid, it is recommended that applicants complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA). Get in-depth information on federal student aid programs and applying for financial
aid at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Frequently Asked Questions: How Student Grades Affect Financial Aid?
Q. Do grades affect my son or daughter’s eligibility for future financial aid?
A. Yes. In order to maintain eligibility for financial aid students must meet a minimum GPA
based on their grade level and must earn 67% of all credits attempted. Additionally, the
maximum timeframe that a student can receive financial aid may not exceed 150% of their
program length. All attempted credits, including credits earned at other colleges and accepted
towards your current program of study, incomplete grades, withdrawals and repeats, are counted
toward the calculation of determining if a student is meeting the minimum standards of
satisfactory academic progress (SAP). Students who are not making SAP have the right to
appeal if there are documented extenuating circumstances.

Scholarship Search Tip of the Day: The only way to have a shot at winning scholarships is to apply for scholarships.
You must apply early, and apply often. If you miss a deadline and send your application in late,
you go to the bottom of the pile. Remember, you could be missing out on an opportunity for
some generous funding, and free funding that you won’t need to pay back.

The Johnson C. Smith University (JCSU) Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP)
The Johnson C. Smith University (JCSU) Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) for 2017-2022,
“Cultivating a Culture and Curriculum for Undergraduate Research”, has been developed from
an inclusive process that allowed for considerable input from all JCSU constituencies.
The curriculum at JCSU will be modified to focus on the development of basic research skills in
foundation courses. Continued development of these skills will be effected by scaffolded
research experiences in the major courses, leading to improved Senior Investigative
Papers/Projects (SIPs). Faculty development will include workshops on developing research
skills, classroom-based research project development, and proposal development.
The culture for research will be enhanced by a process audit of barriers to undergraduate
research effectiveness, additional support for mentored undergraduate research, and increased
staff training opportunities. In addition to improving SIPs through more intentional research skill
development throughout the undergraduate experience, a positive benefit of these activities will
be an increased number of externally-funded research activities on campus, which will lead to a
perpetuation of the achievement of the goals of this QEP beyond its five year time-frame.
Program Goals
The overarching intention of the QEP inquiry is to use the Characteristics of Excellence in
Undergraduate Research (COEUR) as a guide to enhance the institution’s support for both the
culture and curriculum of undergraduate research. The specific elements listed under the
COEUR Indicator categories were derived from a campus needs assessment with respect to
undergraduate research and frame the current local concerns in these areas.
Goal 1: To improve the quality of learning by cultivating a culture of undergraduate research in the
following areas: Campus Mission and Culture, Administrative Support, Research Infrastructure,
Recognition, External Funding, Dissemination, Student-Centered Issues, Strategic Planning.
Goal 2: To improve the quality of learning by embedding research skill development across the
curriculum in the following areas: Professional Development, Course-Embedded Research, Mentored
Research, Evaluation and Assessment.
