Students considering leaving Clarkson during a semester must investigate the implications their decision might have on their financial aid.

Students must maintain satisfactory academic progress to retain eligibility for federal and institutional financial aid. Satisfactory academic progress is comprised of three areas as required by federal regulations. A student must complete their degree within a specified period, demonstrate they are making progress towards the completion of their degree by earning a minimum number of credits hours each semester and achieve a GPA that is consistent with meeting graduation requirements. 一些院校奖学金(i.e. Honors and some Endowed/Sponsored Scholarships) may require higher academic achievement.

Financial Aid satisfactory academic progress standards are based on a student’s cumulative record and are separate from Academic Standing determinations. 受到学术警告的学生, 留校察看, or has been approved to continue after separation retains financial aid eligibility provided the financial aid satisfactory academic progress standards as outlined below are met.

Total Withdrawal from the University - Federal Title IV and Institutional Aid Refund Policy

There are occasions when a student may leave the University prior to the completion of a term. 如果学生正式从学校退学, 请个假, 非正式地收回, 或者在任期内被解雇, for the purposes of financial aid both situations are treated as a withdrawal. When a federal financial aid recipient withdraws during a term, federal regulations require a calculation to determine whether federal aid must be returned. 这个计算, 称为第IV项援助的申报表(R2T4), 是否需要正式提款, but also in the cases of students who unofficially withdraw by ceasing attendance in their classes. 在R2T4流程中没有使用请假政策.

An undergraduate student intending to leave the University must contact 学生成就服务 to being the official withdrawal process. esball国际app必须联系他们的学术部门.

The R2T4 calculation determines whether financial aid must be repaid to the federal programs. The University's tuition refund policy is independent from this federal R2T4 policy. 联邦援助包括联邦佩尔助学金, 联邦伊拉克和阿富汗服务补助金, 联邦补充教育机会补助金(SEOG), 联邦直接补贴贷款, 无补贴联邦直接贷款, 以及联邦直接PLUS贷款.

When a student withdraws from the University during the term, the amount of Title IV program assistance that the student has earned up to that point in time is determined by a specific formula. If the student received less assistance than the amount than was earned, 学生可能会收到这些额外的资金. 如果学生得到的资助多于挣到的, the excess funds must be returned to the US Department of Education.

The amount of assistance that the student has earned is determined on a pro rata basis. The formula is based upon the number of days the student has attended as a percentage of the total number of days in the term. For example, 如果学生完成了30%的学期, 该学生可获得原助学金的30%. 一旦学生完成了本学期60%以上的课程, the student has earned all of the assistance awarded for the term. Federal regulations require this calculation if the student officially or 非正式地收回, is dismissed or otherwise leaves the University during a term.

Student transcripts are reviewed at the conclusion of each term. 如果一个学生在一个学期中所有的成绩都是F, federal regulations require the Office of Financial Aid to obtain additional information from the Academic Department(s). If the Academic Department(s) determines that the student completed, yet failed to meet the course objectives in at least one course, no changes to the student's financial aid for that term are required. If however, the Academic Department(s) determines that the student did not complete all courses (i.e. stopped attending all courses); the student is considered to have unofficially withdrawn from the University. In this case, the last date of academic engagement is used to determine the date of the unofficial withdrawal.

学术参与包括:

  • 参加异步课程, lecture, recitation, 或实地或实验室活动或在线, where there is an opportunity for interaction between the instructor and students
  • 提交学术作业
  • 参加评估或考试
  • 参与互动式辅导, webinar, 或其他交互式计算机辅助教学
  • 参加学习小组, group project, 或者是学校安排的在线讨论
  • 与老师就学术问题进行交流

The definition of academic engagement does not include activities where a student may be present, 但没有学术投入, such as:

  • 住在院舍
  • 参与学校的膳食计划
  • Logging into an online class or tutorial without any further participation
  • 参与学术咨询或建议
  • 参加学生组织的学习小组

If the last date of academic engagement is after the 60% date of the term, no adjustment to a student's financial aid for that term is required. If however, 日期发生在60%日期之前, a Title IV refund calculation is required and necessary adjustments to a student's financial aid for the term will be made. 在没有学术参与的最后日期文件的情况下, federal regulations require Clarkson to use the midpoint (50%) of the term.

The Federal Title IV Refund Procedure is separate and distinct from the Office of Student Account’s refund policy for tuition, esball国际平台客户端的费用和其他收费.  Therefore, a student may still owe funds to cover unpaid institutional charges.

esball国际平台客户端奖学金, grants and loans may be reduced based on individual circumstances, the date of withdrawal and the Student Accounts Refund policy.

令人满意的学业进展 for students who return to the University for a subsequent term will be reviewed and a determination will be made based on the Maximum Time Frame, 如上所述的PACE和GPA标准.
