31 amounts will be based on final enrollment status. The tuition refund policy and financial aid return policies contain further details and should be read prior to dropping any classes after the start date of a semester or session. Eligibility for need-based awards is calculated using the expected family contribution (EFC) from the FAFSA and the cost of attendance budget set by the Financial Aid Office. Once the total amount of financial aid received (including external scholarships) reaches the cost of attendance maximum, the student is no longer eligible for any further financial aid for that academic year. Enrollment Status Most types of aid require a minimum enrollment status. Loan recipients must be enrolled at least half- time while scholarship, grant and discount recipients must typically enroll either half-time or full-time, depending on the requirements of each award. The half-time and full-time status definitions vary depending on the type of aid. The federal student aid status definitions also apply to enrollment reporting and other federal reporting purposes.
