Financial aid awards to students will be considered upon receipt
of the following items:
- ACT Family Financial Statement
- Valid Student Aid Report
- Financial Aid Transcript from all prior colleges attended
- Verification Form
- Financial Aid Scholarship Application (Link to PDF)
Financial aid awards may be revised at any time due to changes
in enrollment status, additional financial resources, or revised
information. The student is responsible for notifying the financial
aid office of any changes in his/her financial or academic status.
In the event a student is over-awarded, whether by school or student
error, the student must repay the over-award to the school so
that it can be returned to the proper financial aid account.
Awards Determined by Need
Financial aid awards are determined by a student's need and the
availability of funds.
Recipients of financial aid awards are responsible for notifying
the financial aid office of any scholarships or loans they have
received from outside sources so these may be included in their
financial aid package.
Degree Program Necessary
Students receiving financial aid (loans, grants or college work
study) must be enrolled in a degree program at SCU and maintain,
or exceed, the minimum grade point average.
Academic Progress Necessary
After the initial award, financial aid will be given only to students
who are satisfactorily progressing in their course work according
to the standards outlined in the academic policies. Any student
placed on academic probation for two sequential semesters will
be ineligible for future financial aid until such time the probation
status is cleared.
Financial Aid Refunds
Students receiving federal financial aid, other than college work
study, who withdraw during the first three full weeks of classes are
eligible for tuition refunds. However, a portion of this refund
must be returned to the proper financial aid program. The amount
to be returned is determined by federal regulations and is based
on the college's refund policy outlined in the business policies.
Students are responsible for notifying the financial aid office
of any tuition refund they receive.
Students receiving federal financial aid, other than college work
study, who withdraw from all classes after the first three full weeks
of classes are not eligible for a tuition refund. However, they
may have received a cash refund at the beginning of the semester
for aid received in excess of their tuition to cover education-related
expenses. This student is required to repay a portion of his cash
refund to the college for repayment to the proper financial aid
program. The amount to be repaid is determined by federal regulations.
Students are responsible for notifying the financial aid office
at the time of their withdrawal.
