Federal Financial Aid (Title IV) Refund Regulation
Students who receive federal financial aid (PELL grants, SEOG grants, Stafford Loans, PLUS Loans, Perkins Loans) are subject to the federal refund policy (Return of Title IV Funds). This policy could substantially decrease the amount of financial aid the student will receive if they withdraw or stop attending prior to approximately the tenth week of the semester (prior to completing 60% of the semester). This also means the amount the student must pay out of pocket for tuition charges could increase.
Students "earn" their financial aid based upon the percentage of the semester they are in school and attending. For example, if a student withdraws or stops attending after completing 20% of the semester (approximately the first day of the fourth week of classes) they will only earn 20% of their financial aid. If the student's federal financial aid awards totaled $2,000 for the Fall semester and they only complete 20% of the semester they will only earn an award of $400. The college must return 80% or $1,600 of the financial aid to the federal government.
