Financial Aid Policies & Procedures
Financial Aid Policies & Procedures
Financial Aid Handbook
The Financial Aid Handbook includes information on Financial Aid programs, application, student rights and responsibilities, cost of attendance, policies and helpful resources.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
Federal regulations require that a student receiving federal financial aid make satisfactory academic progress in accordance with the standards set by 皇冠博彩 and the federal government.
Awards, Adjustments, Disbursements & Refunds
Prior to the term census, financial aid awards are based on anticipated full-time enrollment. Awards are typically adjusted within 2-3 weeks after the term census for students enrolled in fewer than 12 eligible credits and then disbursed for students who have attended at least 6 eligible credits past the session census. Refunds for any excess aid are generally received 1-2 weeks after aid disburses to a student's account, depending on the refund preference selected.
Buy Books & Supplies With Financial Aid
Use excess pending financial aid to buy or rent textbooks and supplies from the Campus Bookstore during the designated periods each semester. Purchases from the Campus Bookstore may be made online or in person after completing the Bookstore Authorization e-Form on your my皇冠博彩 To-Do List each year.
Financial Aid, Student Rights & Responsibilities
When you accept an offer of financial assistance from the Office of Financial Aid at Northern Virginia Community College, you are entering into an agreement with the college. There are certain rights and responsibilities associated with this agreement.
Impact of Dropping, Withdrawing, Auditing or Not Attending a Course
Always contact the Financial Aid Office before dropping, withdrawing, auditing, or deciding not to attend a course to confirm how it will affect your financial aid.
Educational Tax Credits
You or your parents may be able to claim tax credits toward the tuition paid for your post secondary education. Tax credits reduce the amount of tax you or your parents owe.
Fraud & Identity Theft
皇冠博彩’s Financial Aid Office is working to prevent program abuse and to increase college-wide awareness on protecting your personal information.
