Show 17 If students change thdr program of study, credit hours completed for the previous major or majors will still be included in the total number of hours for financial aid eligibility even though the credit hours may or may not satisfy program requirements for the new major. Once students reach the maximum attempted hours (150% of credits needed for graduation), they must complete thdr program with thdr own funding. Maximum hours cannot be appealed. Appeals & Reinstatement of Aid Students disqualified from financial aid can regain eligibility by making up deficit hours without using financial aid and/or by bringing their cumulative GPA to at least 2.00. Administrative Review appeals requesting an exception to satisfactory progress requirements may also be made to the Financial Aid & Scholarship Committee. Withdrawals and Return of Title IV Funds Up through the 60% point in each semester or period of enrollment, a pro rata schedule is used to determine the amount of FSA funds the student has earned at the time of withdrawal. After the 60% point in the semester or period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the Title IV funds he or she was scheduled to receive during the period. If a recipient of Title IV grant or loan funds withdraws from a school after beginning attendance, the amount of Title IV grant or loan assistance earned by the student must be determined. If the amount disbursed to the student is greater than the amount the student earned, unearned funds must be returned. You may contact the Financial Aid & Scholarship Office for any questions at 801-626-7569 or email financialaid@weber.edu. WSU returns Title IV funds to the programs from which the student received aid during the semester or period of enrollment as applicable, in the following order. 1. Unsubsidized Federal Stafford loans. 2. Subsidized Federal Stafford loans. 3. Federal Perkins loans. 4. Federal PLUS loans. 5. Federal Pell Grants. 6. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG). 7. Other awards (e.g., LEAP, UCOPE, and UHEAA Grants).
