Implications for Financial Aid

You should be aware that dropping courses may affect eligibility for financial aid. Contact Financial Aid Services prior to dropping a course or completely withdrawing from school. If you stop attending class without officially withdrawing from the College, then the grade is an automatic "F"; Students receiving Veterans Education Benefits or Vocational Rehabilitation should contact Veterans Services for specific policies concerning drops and withdrawals. These changes may have a direct effect on VA benefits. Students using the Hazlewood Act Exemption must meet satisfactory academic progress (SAP) in accordance with the college Financial Aid policy in order to remain eligible. This does not apply to students whose eligibility for the Hazlewood Act Exemption is based on a deceased veteran’s status. You do not have to be in receipt of Financial Aid, but must meet SAP requirements. For more information, please contact the Veteran Services Office.
