The amount of federal financial aid "earned" is calculated based on the percentage of the enrollment period completed up through 60% point of the enrollment period. Students may no longer be eligible for the full amount of the Federal Pell Grant, Federal SEOG, TAP or Federal Student Loans that they were originally scheduled to receive. If the student receives more Federal Aid than the amount "earned", it is the student's responsibility to repay any over award to the U.S. Department of Education.

All student fees are non-refundable after week one of the semester.
