退款和偿还接受州或联邦援助的学生

如果学生退出巴西波西斯特学院，他们可能有资格退还给该学期的巴西港式学院的一部分学费和费用。如果学生收到的州或联邦援助（TITE IV），那么一部分退款将返回到收到援助的赠款资源。

Two formulas exist for determining the amount of the refund: Brazosport College’s Refund Policy and the federal “Return of Title IV Aid” formula derived from the October 7, 1998, Reauthorization of the Higher Education Act. The federal formula is applicable to any student receiving federal aid if that student withdraws on or before the sixty percent point in time in the semester. These students may also receive a refund of non-federal or non-state sources through Brazosport College’s refund policy. Students not receiving federal or state aid will have their refund calculated using only Brazosport College’s refund policy.

如果学生以PELL赠款，联邦学生贷款或FSCEOG的形式收到联邦政府，并在完成学期的60％或之前，请联邦公式提供返回标题IV援助援助。撤回或从所有课程中删除的学生，在所有课程中获得一定程度的“F”，或者在所有课程中获得所有W合并的组合，将需要偿还学期收到的大学资金。退款的百分比等于学期剩余的日历日的数量除以学期的日历日的数量。

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. Worksheets are available upon request to help in determining the amount of refund or repayment.
