Page 14 2015–16 Graduate and Adult Programs Academic Catalog Graduate Programs Campus Services Calculation of Title IV assistance not earned The amount of the Title IV grant and loan assistance not earned by the student is calculated by determining the complement of the percentage of assistance the student earned and applying it to the total amount of grant and loan assistance that was disbursed (or that could have been disbursed) to the student, or on the student’s behalf, for the period of enrollment as of the day the student withdrew. Difference between amounts earned and amounts received The University will follow the regulations for late disbursement if the student received less grant or loan assistance than the amount earned. If the student has received more grant or loan assistance than the amount earned, then the unearned funds shall be returned by the University, the student, or both. Responsibility of the University The University shall return the lesser of the unearned amount of Title IV assistance or an amount equal to the total institutional charges the student incurs for the period of enrollment of which the assistance was awarded, multiplied by the unearned percentage of awarded Title IV grant and loan assistance. Responsibility of the student Students shall return unearned Title IV assistance minus the amount the University returns. Order of return of Title IV funds Excess funds returned by the University or student are credited to outstanding Title IV loan balances for the student or made on the student’s behalf for which a return of funds is required. Excess funds must be credited to outstanding balances in the following order: 1. Unsubsidized Stafford loans 2. Subsidized Stafford loans Campus Services Summer Housing Information Residence hall housing is available for graduate students during the summer course schedule.
