The receipt of financial aid is a privilege, which creates both rights and responsibilities. Students have the right to know
the method used to determine their need; and the right to be awarded aid as equitably as funds permit.
Students applying for financial aid are responsible for accurately portraying financial resources and circumstances and notifying
the manner; and for maintaining satisfactory academic process and good standing.
Students who fail to maintain adequate progress will be placed on probation. Failure to correct academic deficiency will result
in the loss of financial aid until the required credits and grade point average have been earned.
Students or parents who knowingly provide false information on any financial aid form (financial aid forms include but are
not limited to the FAFSA, verification forms, Work Study time cards and loan applications) will be denied financial aid and
will be refused for all subsequent years without the possibility of appeal. Additionally, students so identified will be billed
for all aid disbursed and may face prosecution by the Department of Ed, which may result in fine, imprisonment, or both.
While the Financial Aid Office is available to assist students through the application process, it is the students responsibility
to see the correctness and completeness of his or her application. If a student receives notification that his/her FAFSA
or loan application is incomplete, the student must determine what is necessary to complete the application(s) and submit
the required information.
