Students withdrawing from the University or dropping semester credit hours which result in a change in the assessment of fees will be eligible for a refund of fees based on the dates and conditions listed hereafter. No refund can be made on certain fees and optional fees as established by the Kentucky State University Board of Regents. The date of completion of the withdrawal/drop determines the percent of refund for which the student is eligible. A withdrawal/drop is complete when the necessary form(s) have been completed and returned

to the designated office.

For purposes of calculating refunds, "weeks" are counted as seven-day periods beginning with the first day of classes for the semester. Refunds will be issued on canceled classes and early withdrawals in accordance with the institutional refund policy. Refunds issued from Title IV financial aid will be issued within fourteen days from the date funds are applied to the student's account resulting in a credit balance. Funds are usually applied after the 12th day of classes. Questions concerning refunds should be directed to the Bursar's Office (ASB Lobby).

Students who receive Title IV financial aid Pell Grant, Federal SEOG, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Direct or PLUS loans and withdraws from the University is subject to the Return of Title IV Funds regulations. Students with funds from any of these programs “earn” their financial aid dollars while enrolled. If a student withdraws prior to completing 60% of a term (Fall Semester on or after October 30, 2011, and Spring Semester on or after March 25, 2012), 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. Failure to return aid due back to their federal programs will result in loss of eligibility for federal financial aid assistance.

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 Refunds are calculated according to the following schedule for those students not receiving Title IV financial aid and withdraw from the University.
