Are you making changes to your enrollment?

Students can make changes to their schedules before the semester starts and during the first week of classes (the add/drop period) without penalty.

• Courses removed from a student's schedule before the end of add/drop may receive a 100% refund of tuition and fees in accordance with the University Refund Policy.
• However, if a student's enrollment reduces beyond their anticipated enrollment for financial aid purposes, their account will be subject to review and their aid may be reduced.

Check your expected enrollment for financial aid to ensure your financial aid is accurate!

• Go to myVILLE Student Portal and click on Financial Aid Awards. Then select the appropriate aid year and click on Award Overview. Scroll down and review the section Expected Enrollment.

Below is a chart of enrollment definitions based on program type.

• If your expected enrollment for financial aid matches your overall enrollment plans for the semester, there is nothing further you need to do.
• If your expected enrollment does not match your overall enrollment plans, complete a Change of Enrollment Form so we can review and update your account accordingly.
  • Please note, you do not need to complete this form every time you make changes to your schedule. This form is only needed if your overall enrollment plans for the semester will be different from the expected enrollment listed.

Check how your enrollment status may affect certain types of financial aid.

If a student withdraws from a class during or after the add/drop period, there could potentially be a need to adjust the financial aid that was originally awarded. Please see the chart below to see how your aid may be affected.

It is in a student’s best interest to contact the Office of Financial Aid to inquire about the possible impact a course withdrawal may have based on their individual enrollment status and the types of financial aid awarded.

 

If a professor/instructor notifies the Registrar's Office that a student never attended their course(s), the course(s) are dropped from the student's schedule. Students cannot receive financial aid for courses they did not take; therefore, depending on the type of financial aid a student receives and what their overall enrollment status should have been, adjustments to financial aid may occur. Please see the chart below to see how aid may be affected.

 

All students who are withdrawing completely from Millersville must complete a Withdrawal Form with the Registrar's Office. Read below to learn more about how your financial aid may be affected.

Please note, that the following information applies even for a Medical Withdraw.

Disclaimer: Refunds for tuition and fees only apply to students who are completely withdrawing from a semester and the amount refunded is subject to the University Refund Policy and schedule. This policy is separate from any financial aid policies and is viewable on the Office of Student Accounts website.

Other Important Reminders:

• If you are withdrawing prior to the start of a semester, complete a Change of Enrollment Form for Financial Aid.
• If you are withdrawing during a semester, you do not need to complete a Change of Enrollment for Financial Aid. We will be notified by the Registrar's Office of your withdrawal date and review your account accordingly. 
• If you are transferring to another university, update the school code on your FAFSA and/or complete a new FAFSA for the following academic year.
• If you are a loan borrower and you are not planning to re-enroll in at least half-time credits at Millersville or another institution, you will enter your 6 month grace period before you go into repayment on your loans. The grace period begins as of the last date you were enrolled. Contact your loan servicer(s) for more information. 

Students considering withdrawing from all their classes are strongly encouraged to schedule an appointment with the Office of Financial Aid to discuss their situation prior to their withdrawal.

Students at Millersville University who receive all Z, F, or a combination of Z, F, and W grades are considered an unofficial withdraw per federal regulation and we are required to review their account and potentially complete a Return to Title IV Calculation (R2T4) based on their last date of attendance or activity in their course(s). 

For students who are reviewed as an unofficial withdrawal, professors will be contacted directly by the Registrar's Office to determine the last date of academic activity. The Office of Financial Aid will utilize the reported last date of academic activity in the Return to Title IV (R2T4) calculations. 

 Important Reminders:

• If you are a loan borrower and you are not planning to re-enroll in at least half-time credits at Millersville or another institution, you will enter your 6 month grace period before you go into repayment on your loans. The grace period begins as of the last date you were enrolled or the last date of activity reported by the Registrar's Office.

All students who are taking a Leave of Absence (LOA) from Millersville must complete a Leave of Absence Form with the Registrar's Office. Read below to learn more about how your financial aid may be affected.

Please note, that the following information applies even for a Medical Leave of Absence.

 

Other Important Reminders:

• If you are taking a LOA prior to the start of a semester, complete a Change of Enrollment Form for Financial Aid.
• If you are taking a LOA during a semester, you do not need to complete a Change of Enrollment for Financial Aid. We will be notified by the Registrar's Office of your LOA date and review your account accordingly. 
• If you are transferring to another university, update the school code on your FAFSA and/or complete a new FAFSA for the following academic year.
• If you are a loan borrower and you are not planning to re-enroll in at least half-time credits at Millersville or another institution, you will enter your 6 month grace period before you go into repayment on your loans. The grace period begins as of the last date you were enrolled. Contact your loan servicer(s) for more information. 

Students considering taking a leave of absence during a semester are strongly encouraged to schedule an appointment with the Office of Financial Aid to discuss their situation prior to their withdrawal.

Students should be aware that withdrawing from all courses during a term and/or withdrawing from a course(s) could have an effect on their Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP), which requires students to earn 67% of the credits they have attempted.

Students who are required to have a Return to Title IV (R2T4) Calculation completed and it is determined that funds need to be returned to the federal government should be aware that this calculation might create a balance due with the Office of Student Accounts.
