What happens if I withdraw from school?
Federal student aid programs are awarded based on the percentage of time you are enrolled for the semester. Depending upon when you withdraw,
student aid will be adjusted according to a federal formula. State and institutional aid will be adjusted in accordance with the institutional
policy. Tuition may also be adjusted, but typically, students owe money to the University after withdrawal. For more information:

Will my future student aid eligibility be in jeopardy if I withdraw from school?
Your student aid for future academic years may be in jeopardy if you fall below the minimum credit expectation for satisfactory
academic progress, which affects your eligibility for most student aid programs.
Academic progress is measured using the number of credits you attempt and earn each semester. These financial aid requirements are completely
separate from those determined by your academic college or department.
The aid on my Award Letter does not appear on my Statement of Account. What can I do?
Follow the instructions on your term bill that explain how to adjust the amount due by the amount of anticipated aid. For instance,
you are a recipient of a scholarship that does not appear on your term bill. When you submit your term bill indicate the amount you
expect as a financial aid credit.
