If classes/housing are dropped prior to the last day of drop/add, students are able to re-enroll during the registration period. Registration is based upon availability; therefore, students are not guaranteed to obtain the same classes or housing from which they were dropped.

Students drop for nonpayment on the final payment deadline will have a designated period to demonstrate the ability to pay and be reinstated into dropped classes.

During this reinstatement period, students should continue to attend/participate in all classes. Access to services such as

housing, meals, and events may be limited during reinstatement.

At the conclusion of the reinstatement period, any student who has not demonstrated the ability to pay must stop attending classes and move out of housing and pay any outstanding balances on student account.

REINSTATEMENT PERIOD

Savannah State University will provide students dropped on the last date of the drop/add period an opportunity to demonstrate the ability to pay and be reinstated into dropped courses.

After a student has identified resources to pay for tuition and fees, the student will initiate the reinstatement process by completing an electronic request for reinstatement form. Once the student completes their section of the form, the form will automatically notify the necessary offices for processing. During the processing period, the student will receive email notifications from each office as their form routes through the process. The student must monitor their email accounts for communication pertaining to their reinstatement status.

Students seeking reinstatement must continue to attend classes during the reinstatement period, so that they will not fall behind in course work.

Students are financially responsible for the applicable rent and meals consumed during the reinstatement period.

At the conclusion of the reinstatement period, any student who has not demonstrated the ability to pay must stop attending classes, move out of housing immediately and pay any outstanding balances on student account.

Savannah State University Refund Policy

Regulations of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia provide for tuition and mandatory fee refunds when formal withdrawal from the institution is approved within a designated period following registration. The refund percentage that a student receives is a calculation of the time remaining in the semester up through 60% of the semester. Once 60% of the semester has expired, there is no refund for a withdrawal from the institution. A refund of all semester tuition and other mandatory fees is made in the event of death of a student any time during an academic semester. (BR Minutes, 1979-80, p. 61; 1986-87, pp. 24-25; 1995, p. 246).

Credit Balance Authorization

Once Federal Title IV financial aid funds are disbursed to your student account to be applied to tuition, fees, room and board, funds provided may exceed those charges. Students may choose to leave those funds on their student account for future charges. By authorizing this action, a refund for Federal Title IV funds will not be provided, and the credit will be applied toward future charges including those, which may arise from next semester’s tuition and fees. This authorization may be rescinded at any time. I authorize SAVANNAH STATE UNIVERSITY to apply any credit balance that may result on my student account from application of Federal aid, loan funds, scholarships, or other payments to be applied to future charges.

Program regulations permit students to authorize use of Title IV financial aid funds for non-institutional expenses such as books and supplies, parking fines, or campus debit systems.

You may rescind this authorization at any time prior to incurring such charges, but you may not cancel it once such charges have been paid on your behalf. This authorization is valid for funds in excess of tuition and fees, based on your financial aid eligibility and enrollment status.

I authorize SAVANNAH STATE UNIVERSITY to apply the credit balance derived from Federal funds/aid to charges to my student account for other goods and services.

Prior Year Charges Authorization

Federal Title IV financial aid funds are restricted to payment of current period tuition, fees, room and board. Students may authorize use of these funds for prior period expenses.
