If it appears necessary for a student to withdraw from school before the end of a semester, the process should be initiated through the Associate Vice President for Student Success, Dr. Twyler Earl, tearl@c178.net<\/a>.

In the case of a credit balance on a student\u2019s semester account, a student is
allowed to receive a refund of the following:
1. Prior payments made to their account
2. Federal PELL Grant funds
3. Student or Parent loans*
*If aid includes proceeds from Parent PLUS loans, any excess funds MUST be returned to the parent unless otherwise indicated on the application. Only then can the refund go to the student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A remaining credit balance may be applied to additional charges (ie. full meal plan, commuter meal plan, charged books through the SNU University book store, join the residential living community). When admissible by Title IV regulations, SNU will allow a credit balance to roll forward from the fall semester to the spring semester to ensure a student\u2019s ability to pay their account in full each academic year. If educational loans contributed to a student\u2019s credit balance, the University recommends lowering the loan amounts to reduce or eliminate the student\u2019s loan debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These refund policies conform to the requirements of the Higher Education Act Amendments of 1992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
