If I were registered for full-time, but had to reduce to part-time....what is the refund policy? Would I not get one?

As long as you drop classes before a certain date you get a full refund. The dates are on the SBS website but it's like 2 1/2 weeks after the semester starts.

It depends on the financial aid you're getting. If it's a Texas grant, you're required to stay three-quarters full time (9 hours). For most types of federal aid, you're required to stay half-time enrolled. (6 hours)

Texas Tech has devised a plan to financially screw over every one of their students. Those who arent on financial aid get buttfucked by traffic and parking. Those who are....well, these are their stories.

Doesn't this happen every year? Where they turn it from estimated financial aid into actual financial aid?

I see. Well, all I can say is yall shouldn't freak out so badly. There was still a week to go before classes started. Plenty of time to get things sorted out.

GOD DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!
-Pell grant is not on my account, yet I still have it listed under financial aid eligibility... -Shows my payment check as returned, charging me a return check fee, and now debiting my tuition/fees from my stafford loan. It says I'll only get a credit of $590 now. The webcheck payment I made last Thursday. It showed as clear/everything payed up until today. WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!?!? -------------------- |

financial aid refunds rock
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
