The date on which written notice is received (or post-marked, in the case of a withdrawal received by mail) shall be the official date of withdrawal for purposes of tuition refund, computation and recording of grades, and the date of record for purposes of financial aid refunds to the various sources. Any student withdrawing from the college must complete a withdrawal form and participate in an exit interview conducted by the Director of Student Affairs or designee. Forms are located in the Office of Student Affairs.

Any currently enrolled student of the college who fails to register for the next regular semester of course work shall be considered withdrawn from the college. Any student considered to have withdrawn must be officially readmitted according to the procedures established through the Office of Admission.

Return of Title IV Federal Student Aid.

If a student completely withdraws from school during a semester, a portion of the federal Title IV aid disbursed to the student must be returned to the financial aid programs. The percentage of Title IV aid required to be returned is based on the percentage of time remaining in the semester as of the student’s date of withdrawal. The amount of assistance that a student has earned is determined on a pro-rata basis. The college must determine the treatment of the student’s Title IV program assistance on a payment period basis. The percent of the payment period represents the percentage of aid earned by the student.

Funds will be returned first to the Title IV loan programs and then the Title IV grant programs in the following order:

1. Unsubsidized Stafford Loan
2. Subsidized Stafford Loan
3. Perkins Loan
4. Plus Loan
