In order to be eligible for financial aid funds, students must begin attendance in ALL of their classes. Professors will report any student who has not attended a class as a "No Show" after the first two weeks of the semester. Students reported as a "No Show" will lose eligibility for financial aid unless they can provide attendance confirmation from all professors of the courses for which they are registered.
Students will be notified by mail if they are reported as a "No Show." It is the students’ responsibility to request attendance confirmation from all their professors. This confirmation must be emailed to the Financial Aid Office at financialaid@mc3.edu.
Audits
Financial aid does not pay for audit classes. If an audit class changes the enrollment status, financial aid will be recalculated and returned. Student will be responsible to pay monies owed to the College if charges are incurred.
Census Date
PELL grants will not be recalculated after the add/drop date of a term (census date) if a student increases or decreases enrollment status. Student will be paid based on financial aid calculation at the time of the census date.
Late Start Classes
If students register for late start classes, no federal PELL monies will be transmitted to the College until after all classes begin.
Loan monies will be released after the student has started classes totaling at least six credits.
Repeats
Effective July 1, 2011, the Department of Education has enacted a change in regards to the treatment of repeated coursework in terms of financial aid eligibility. A student no longer qualifies for financial aid for a course that is being repeated that has been successfully completed at least twice prior. A passing grade of D or better is considered a successful completion.
