If a student withdraws, is dismissed, or takes a leave of absence prior to the 60 percent point of the semester, Title IV funds must be returned to the source based on federal regulations unless a student meets one of the withdrawal exemptions for programs offered in modules. For the purpose of the return of Title IV funds, Federal Title IV aid is PELL, SEOG, subsidized and unsubsidized Federal Direct Loans, and PLUS loans. Students who do not complete at least 60 percent of the semester and are receiving Title IV aid may owe a bill after funds are returned to the source. A student will be reviewed to determine if they are an unofficial withdrawal at the end of the semester due to receiving failing grades in all of their course work. If no last date of academic attendance can be determined through our attendance monitoring process, the period midpoint will be used. The student must repay funds credited to their account as determined by the Federal Return of Title IV Aid Calculation.
