in
order
to

eligible
for

you
have
been
enrolled
at
Auburn

for
four
or
more
semesters,
you
must
maintain
a
2.0
cumulative
grade
point
average
and
average
a
passing
rate
of
67%
of
all
hours
attempted.
Grades
of
W
and
F
count
against
your
passing
percentage.
Undergraduate
students
may
not
receive
aid
after
they
have
attempted
192
semester
hours
of
academic
work.
Withdrawal/Resignation
Students
who
withdraw
from
all
classes
must
repay
aid
that
is
unearned
based
on
the
effective
date
of
withdrawal,
amount
of
institutional
charges, amount
and
type
of
aid.
The
Return
of
Title
IV
Funds
Policy
applies
to
federal
financial
aid
recipients
who
withdraw/resign
for
a
term
after
aid
has
disbursed.
Repayments
for
these
students
are
determined
according
to
the
following
policy:
The
term
"Title
IV
Funds"
refers
to
the
federal
financial
aid
programs
authorized
under
the
Higher
Education
Act
of
1965
(as
amended)
and
includes
these
programs:
Unsubsidized
Stafford
Loans,
Subsidized
Stafford
Loans,
Federal
Perkins
Loans,
Federal
PLUS
Loans,
Federal
Pell
Grants,
and
Federal
Supplemental
Grants
(SEOG).
Any
notification
of
withdrawal
should
be
directed
to
your
respective
academic
department.
Do
not
drop
your
entire
schedule
of
courses
for
a
term
via
OASIS.
Your
courses
will
be
dropped
by
the
Office
of
the
Registrar
after
your
resignation
is
approved.
The
withdrawal
date
should
be
the
student's
last
date
of
class
attendance
as
determined
by
the
student
and/or
class
role.
If
this
date
cannot
be
determined,
the
date
the
student
began
the
withdrawal
process
or
officially
notified
the
institution
of
the
intent
to
withdraw
is
the
withdrawal
date.
In
accordance
with
federal
regulations,
when
an
aid
recipient
resigns,
repayments
are
allocated
in
the
above
order
followed
by
other
Title
IV
assistance,
other
federal
sources
of
aid,
and
other
state,
private
and
institutional
aid.
Title
IV
aid
is
earned
in
direct
proportion
to
the
length
of
time
the
student
is
enrolled.
A
student
who
remains
enrolled
beyond
the
60%
point
earns
all
aid
for
that
period.
Until
a
student
has
passed
the
60%
point,
only
a
portion
of
the
aid
has
been
earned.
Aid
that
is
unearned
based
on
the
calculation
must
be
repaid
to
the
federal
program(s).
The
amount
to
be
repaid
will
be
charged
back
to
the
student's
Bursar
account
and
must
be
repaid
by
the
student.
A
copy
of
the
worksheet
used
for
this
calculation
may
be
requested
from
the
Office
of
Student
Financial
Aid
or
Bursar.
