Withdrawing may impact your eligibility for federal, state and institutional grants and loans, scholarships and third-party sponsorships for the current term as well as future terms. Following your withdrawal, all of your aid will be recalculated and you may have to return all or part of your aid for this term. Your withdrawal may result in a balance due on your account. The semester will also count as one of the eight semesters you have of aid eligibility.

If your application is selected for verification, you will not be eligible for Federal Aid until this process is finalized. To avoid unnecessary delays, please submit all required documents promptly.
Students with unusual circumstances (such as parental abandonment, abuse, or incarceration) are encouraged to reach out to the Office of Student Financial Aid to explain their situation and provide supporting documentation. Our committee will review each situation on a case-by-case basis to determine if a dependency override can be granted. This would allow the student to be viewed as an independent student for financial aid purposes. We will review all requests for a determination of independence as quickly as possible but no later than 60 days after the student enrolls or 60 days after the request is made. If all documentation is not received within 60 days, the request may be denied.
