federal financial Aid refund<br />
Policy for total Withdrawals<br />
The Higher Education Amendments<br />
of 1998 require colleges to recalculate<br />
Federal Title IV Aid (PELL, SEOG, and<br />
all Stafford Loans) eligibility for recipients<br />
who withdraw from or stop attending all<br />
of their courses before completing at least<br />
60% of the semester. Students are now<br />
only eligible for a percentage of federal aid<br />
earned up to the 60% point of the semester.<br />
Class attendance rosters are reviewed each<br />
semester and recalculations are performed<br />
accordingly.<br />
Offcial Withdrawals: Students who<br />
follow the college’s formal withdrawal<br />
procedures and totally withdraw before<br />
completing 60% of the semester will have<br />
their federal aid eligibility recalculated<br />
using the date of withdrawal on fle in the<br />
Registrar’s Offce. For example, students<br />
who complete 20% of the semester will be<br />
eligible for 20% of their federal aid.<br />
Unoffcial Withdrawals: Students who<br />
stop attending and do not formally<br />
withdraw before completing 60% of the<br />
semester will be considered unoffcially<br />
withdrawn and subject to a Federal Title<br />
IV Aid recalculation. The college will<br />
use the 50% point in the semester to<br />
calculate eligibility for aid for unoffcial<br />
withdrawals.<br />
Tuition Liability: Students who offcially<br />

No Refund<br />
or unoffcially withdraw after the<br />
college’s refund period has ended are<br />
responsible for any unpaid tuition and fees<br />
even if their fnancial aid is decreased.<br />
Students subject to Federal Title IV<br />
Aid recalculations are responsible for<br />
any remaining unpaid tuition and fee<br />
balances resulting from the recalculation.<br />
Additionally, if the student received a<br />
disbursement of federal fnancial aid, and<br />
a federal Title IV recalculation results in<br />
their not being eligible for all or a portion<br />
of the funds dispersed, the student will be<br />
billed for the outstanding funds.<br />
student Accident insurance<br />
Student accident insurance is required for<br />
the protection of all full-time and parttime<br />
students. This insurance is in effect<br />
during the academic year and covers<br />
students taking classes on campus, courses<br />
off campus, and other related college<br />
activities.<br />
Coverage is in effect for accidental<br />
injury, accidental death, accidental<br />
dismemberment, loss of sight, and dental<br />
injury. Claims must be made to the Offce<br />
of Human Resources of the college within<br />
twenty days after the injury occurred.<br />
If students are covered by their own<br />
or their parents’ health insurance, that<br />
coverage is considered the primary<br />
coverage, and bills should be submitted<br />
to that insurance carrier frst. (Some
