If you change your academic status (withdraw or unofficially withdraw - fail to attend classes), or drop below half-time status your change in academic status will alter your eligibility for financial aid and cause the following change(s) to occur in funds you have received or are scheduled to receive:

  1. If you were refunded money based upon your original enrollment status, then reduce the number of enrolled classes, there will be a change in the amount of refund you are eligible to receive. You could receive a bill from the University in order to account for the excess funds which were refunded to you. See Financial Aid Policies
     
  2. If you received funds from the Veteran Administration Agency or the Vocational Rehabilitation Agency based upon at least one-half time enrollment (6 credits), then you unofficially withdrew from a course or courses causing your academic enrollment status to change, you may be required to return funds you received to the funding agency due to this change in academic enrollment status.
