RETURN OF AID POLICIES 2010/2011 ACADEMIC SCHOOL YEAR Aid received by outside sources, excluding payments on account, York College, and all Title IV programs will be returned to the sources they came from according to the following policies. Title IV Programs: All aid received in the form of Pell grants, SEOG, State Grants, Perkins Loan, Stafford loans, PLUS loans, Robert Byrd scholarships, will be earned per day that student is enrolled at York College until the 60% point in the semester. After this 60% point in time, all aid is considered to have been earned by the student and repayment of funds will not be calculated. York College Program: All aid received in the form of York College scholarships, YCSL, YC Need Based loan, Endowed scholarships, institutional grants will be earned per day that the student is enrolled at York College until the 60% point in the semester. After this 60% point in time, all aid is considered to have been earned by the student and repayment of funds will not be calculated. The calculation for determining amount of earned funds will be to divide the number of days a student is enrolled in classes into the number of days in the semester. (Spring break is not counted as days attended.) Summer school will be counted individually, as sessions require. The percentage of days will not be rounded, but used as is calculated. That percentage will be applied to each type of aid received by the student. Once the calculations are finished, the amount of unearned aid is determined per Title IV software. (See calculation worksheets in Student Consumer Information and at www.york.edu.) Outside Scholarships: Once an outside scholarship is validated and applied to a student's account, there will be no return of the funds. Unearned aid that is determined to be returned to the government through the Title IV programs will be the responsibility of the student. Room Damage deposit, less any costs for room repairs and/or prorated share of general student-caused residence hall damage, will be returned within 30 days after exiting York College by applying the deposit to your account. If the account is paid in full, you may withdraw the credit balance. Checkout procedure is through the Residence Hall Manager. Improper checkout or failure to abide by the room lease agreement may result in the deposit being forfeited. Lost key, lost proximity, lost phone will be $25 each. There will be no key deposit.

STUDENT LIFE At York College, most students are involved in extracurricular activities. We believe these activities promote social and spiritual growth and the development of leadership skills, personality, and special talents. This section of the Catalog provides a brief overview of student activities and conduct regulations. More details concerning conduct regulations, along with other helpful information, are provided in the Student Handbook which is located on our website at www.york.edu/bulletin/handbook.htm. Every student is automatically a member of the Student Association (SA) whose goals are to uphold and further the Christian principles on which York College is founded, to promote unity among the campus organizations, to foster college spirit and loyalty, to govern matters of student concern, and to establish better community relationships. The Executive Council of the SA is elected annually by the student body. ORGANIZATIONS: Student clubs and organizations are at the core of the campus life. Some of the many campus organizations in which students may participate are listed below. You can also access information at www.york.edu/clubs/Index.htm.
