Refunds
and Repayments |
|
In
the event that the student withdraws or drops from the
course of study, a refund/repayment calculation will
be performed by the APS Financial Aid Department to
determine if a required federal refund/repayment is
due. Indiana Wesleyan University is required to refund
to the student's federal source in order to reduce the
amount of student liability. In the event that a currently
attending student has overpaid, the refund will be made
to the student. The refund processing time is approximately
2 to 3 weeks from the time the university becomes aware
of the student's withdrawal. Please notify the University
of your withdrawal by contacting the Assessment Center. |

of the financial aid programs available.
- The
cost of attending the programs and the school's

resources (such as employer reimbursement, other
financial aid, etc.) are considered in the calculation
of your need.
- How
much of your financial need, as determined by

aid package. If you believe you have been treated
unfairly, you may request reconsideration of the
award which was made to you.
