Present policy stipulates that the amount awarded will be in proportion to the amount of scholarship assistance granted during the academic year in question. If a student who is receiving any form of financial aid takes a leave of absence or is required to withdraw and is entitled to a refund, a portion of that refund may be returned to the financial aid fund. These Title IV funds must receive a proportion of the refund equal to the proportion that each contributed to the original aid package. Through Harvard University s participation in the U.S. Department of Education s Quality Assurance Project, approximately 100 undergraduates are randomly chosen each year to provide verification of the information originally submitted to the Financial Aid Office. Students who are chosen to participate in this program but who do not provide the information requested may have their federal financial aid cancelled, in accordance with federal regulations.
Students sign promissory notes for loans.
Summer Work Study applications due. Renewal aid notices mailed to home address.
