Title IV Authorization for Federal Student Aid

美国.S. Department of Education requires that Title IV funds (federal financial aid) be applied to only educational charges billed by a university. If the total in federal financial aid funding exceeds allowable charges, a university is required to refund the excess unless a student gives permission otherwise.

定义

Title IV 金融援助

  • Direct Subsidized/Unsubsidized Loans
  • Federal Pell Grants
  • Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG)
  • Direct PLUS Loans (Parent/Graduate)

Educational (Allowable) Charges

  • 强制性的费用

Non-Educational (Non-allowable) Charges

  • 健康保险
  • 停车罚款
  • 滞纳金
  • 利息费用
  • Any other fees not mandated for courses

In order to apply Title IV funding to non-educational charges, you will need to grant permission to the University of New England. If Title IV Authorization is incomplete (or declined), funds cannot be applied to non-educational charges, and a refund will be issued, even if non-educational charges remain on the bill. This means you could simultaneously receive a refund and a bill. However, receiving a refund would not indicate your account is satisfied.

The Title IV Authorization decision needs to be made only once while you are a UNE student. If you wish to change or rescind, you can do so by emailing a written request to Student Financial Services.

You will make a decision on how to apply excess federal loans and grants to your non-educational charges by completing the Title IV Authorization requirement found on Compass. You can follow the instructions below:
