For students who are recipients of federal Title IV student aid, refunds will be made in accordance with all applicable federal regulations. Proof of registration is required. In addition to the summer supplement, students must have a need analysis on file to determine eligibility for financial aid. Pell Grants for the summer session are only awarded to students who were eligible during the previous academic year, but failed to use their entire eligibility. This is possible if they attended only one semester or enrolled less than full-time during the fall and spring terms.
Any awards given for room, board and personal expenses are taxable.
Students should keep records and receipts of all educational expenses. International Students are responsible for assessing and meeting their tax obligations. Students may be subject to U.S. taxation based on the source and type of income and the number of years they have been present in the U.S. Tax treaties with over 40 countries may alter tax liability. Under the U.S. System, it is the individual's responsibility to determine tax liability and file the appropriate forms in a timely manner. In addition, many scholarships are subject to U.S. taxation.
