enrolled. If a student withdraws prior to completing 60% of a term (Fall Semester on or after October 30, 2012 and Spring Semester on or after March 25, 2013), a prorated portion of his/her federal financial aid dollars must be considered “unearned” and returned to the federal programs. Unearned financial aid dollars returned to the federal programs could cause students to owe the University a significant amount upon withdrawal.
Federal fund returned are distributed to the programs as follows:
Unsubsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loans
Subsidized Federal Direct Stafford Loans
Federal Direct PLUS Loans
Federal Perkins Loans
Federal Pell Grants
Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG)
Other Student Financial Aid Programs
Other federal, state, private, or institutional sources of aid
