Keeping Your Aid
60% Dates (Return of Financial Aid Funds)
If you鈥檙e receiving financial aid grants or loans, you must attend your classes. Don鈥檛 drop or stop attending any class without consulting the Financial Aid Office first. Changes to your class schedule and failing grades may require you to repay federal financial aid funds.
Federal regulations require you to repay a portion of financial aid funds if you withdraw from all of your classes before satisfying the 60% completion rule for the quarter.
You also may be required to repay financial aid funds if you receive failing grades in all of your classes unless an instructor can document that you attended class for at least 60% of the quarter.
F02 Hold & Disenrollment Process (Summer 2026)
Starting Summer Quarter 2026, changes are being made to how financial aid holds (Tuition Deferred-Possible FA) protect your enrollment if tuition is not fully paid.
- You are only protected from disenrollment if your accepted aid fully covers tuition
- If your aid does not cover all tuition, you must pay the remaining balance by the tuition due date
- If the balance is not paid on time, you may be disenrolled from one or more classes for nonpayment
A financial aid hold (which protects your enrollment) is added only if:
- Your accepted financial aid exceeds your tuition
- You are meeting Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)
- You have no outstanding financial aid requirements
- You are enrolled in a financial aid鈥慹ligible academic plan
If your aid only partially covers tuition, your enrollment is not protected until the remaining balance is paid. Once paid, the hold is added the next morning.
- Check your tuition charges
- Subtract your accepted financial aid
- Pay any remaining balance by the due date
- Tuition balance minus accepted aid = balance to be paid
If you receive a tuition due notice, action is required to stay enrolled.
