Loan Funds

William D. Ford Direct Loan Program

Brazosport学院participates in the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program. The college does not participate in the Parent (PLUS) Loan Program. While attending Brazosport College, qualifying students may borrow subsidized loans up to $3,500 for the freshman grade level and up to $4,500 for the sophomore grade level. Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Applied Technology (BAT) program may borrow subsidized loans up to $5,500 for the junior grade level and up to $5,500 for the senior grade level.
Borrowers must meet all eligibility requirements established by the Department of Education as well as the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy (SAP) established by Brazosport College. Student files must be accurate and complete prior to being awarded a student loan.
Borrowers must be enrolled at least half-time (6 credit hours) and working towards a degree or certificate.
希望借用的学生必须从所有先前学校就读并满足SAP要求的学生向经济援助办公室提交学术成绩单。
Loans processed prior to the first day of late registration will be available to students for charges of tuition, fees, and books. The remainder will then be released to students 30 days after the first day of class.
All first-time borrowers must complete on-campus student loan counseling. It is strongly suggested that previous borrowers complete on-line counseling atwww.studentloans.gov.
The Financial Aid Office reserves the right to refuse to originate a loan or may certify such a loan for a reduced amount. Such decisions are made only on a case-by-case basis and are not part of a pattern or practice that denies access to loans because of borrowers’ race, gender, religion, national origin, age, disability status, income, or selection of a particular lender or guaranty agency. The school will notify the borrower in writing of the reason for the decision in such cases and will keep documentation supporting the decision on file.
All borrowers MUST complete student exit loan counseling at the end of each loan period, as well as, shortly after they completely withdraw, graduate, or drop below half-time status. If student loan counseling is not completed, a hold will be placed on the borrower’s record and the student will not be able to re-enroll, obtain transcripts, or graduate until exit counseling is complete.
所有借款人都必须在退出任何或所有班级之前通知财务援助办公室，因为这种变化可能会影响经济援助的资格。
Any variations of this policy may be appealed to the Financial Aid Committee.
Brazosport学院encourages students to borrow responsibly and to utilize the various resources that promote skills on budgeting, debt management, and managing repayment. The College is committed to helping students successfully complete their respective degree program while educating them about the importance of minimizing student loan debt. Such a commitment is vital to meeting the mission.
Direct loan statutory requirements limit a first time borrower’s eligibility for direct subsidized loans to a period not to exceed 150 percent of the length of the borrower’s educational program.

Work Study Programs

工作研究是一项计划，学生每周最多可以工作19个小时。可以提供打字员，实验室助手，图书馆助手和办公室助手等工作。申请可在线获得http://employment.www.d-onis.com.

Brazosport学院offers cooperative education in many of the programs for students. Students enrolled in cooperative training are required to work for a minimum of approximately 20 hours a week in a job related to their program of study. Those students interested in a co-op program should see the division chair in the department for which co-op training is being considered.

为获得州或联邦福利的学生退款和还款政策

If students withdraw from Brazosport College, they may be eligible for a refund of a portion of the tuition and fees paid to Brazosport College for that semester. If the student received state or federal aid (Title IV), then a portion of the refund will be returned to the grant source from which that assistance was received.

存在两个公式，以确定退款的金额：Brazosport College的退款政策和联邦“归还IV援助归还”公式，源自1998年10月7日，《高等教育法》。联邦公式适用于该学生在学期的60％时间点或之前撤回的任何学生。这些学生还可以通过Brazosport College的退款政策获得非联邦或非国家资源的退款。未获得联邦或州援助的学生将仅使用Brazosport College的退款政策来计算退款。（看第9节退款政策.)

The federal formula provides a return of Title IV aid if the student received federal financial assistance in the form of a Pell Grant, Federal Student Loan, or FSEOG and withdrew on or before completing 60% of the semester. Students who withdraw or are dropped from all courses, receive a grade of “F” in all courses, or receive a combination of all W’s and F’s in all courses will be required to repay the college a portion of funds received for the semester. The percentage of the refund is equal to the number of calendar days remaining in the semester divided by the number of calendar days in the semester.

If any refund remains after the required return of Title IV aid, the refund will be used to repay any state funds. Any amount left will then be paid to the student in proportion to the amount paid by that student as long as there was no unpaid balance due at the time of withdrawal. If there was an unpaid balance, then all aid sources will be repaid before any refund is paid to the student.
