||
| Withdrawal for Students with
a Federal Loan or Grant |
||
| Amridge
University abides by federal regulations regarding the
return of federal financial aid (Title IV funds). Title
IV aid is earned in direct proportion to the length of
time the student is enrolled. A student who remains
enrolled beyond the 60% timeframe of the semester earns
all the aid for that semester. The Financial Aid Office will determine the
percentage of aid earned by a Title IV recipient by
calculating the percentage of the enrollment period that
the student completed. The University will return any
federal Title IV funds received for a registered
student, who withdraws prior to the first day of the
semester. Students withdrawing on or after the first day
of the semester but prior to completing 60% of the
semester will be required to repay a prorated portion of
aid funds.
If funds must be returned per federal regulations, that
amount will be charged to the student's account and must
be repaid by the student. |
||
| Students with federal loans and grants who excessively withdraw from or drop course(s) jeopardize their satisfactory progress toward graduation and may be subject to loss of eligibility for financial aid. | ||
