IV purposes if the student ceases attendance at any point prior to completing the payment period or period of enrollment. Keystone will calculate a return unless the school obtains written confirmation from the student at the time of the withdrawal that he or she will attend a module that begins later in the same payment period or period of enrollment. After the 60% point in the payment period or period of enrollment, a student has earned 100% of the Title IV funds that he or she was scheduled to receive during the period, and a return is not required.
The percentage of Title IV aid to be returned is equal to the number of calendar days remaining in the semester divided by the total number of calendar days in the semester. The total number of calendar days in the payment period or period of enrollment includes all days in the payment period excluding scheduled breaks of at least five consecutive days. If a student receives excess Title IV program funds that must be returned, Keystone must return a portion of the excess equal to the lesser of: institutional charges multiplied by the unearned percentage of funds, or the entire amount of excess funds.

The school must return this amount even if it didn’t keep this amount of the student’s Title IV program funds. If Keystone College is not required to return all of the excess funds, the student must return the remaining amount. A school must return Title IV funds to the federal programs from which the student received aid during the payment in the following order, up to the net amount disbursed from each source: 1. Unsubsidized Direct Loans (other than Direct PLUS Loans) 2. Subsidized Direct Loans 3. Direct PLUS Loans 4. Federal Pell Grants for which a Return is required 5. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG) for which a return of funds is required 6. Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grant, for which a return is required.
Keystone College will return any unearned Title IV funds it is responsible for returning within 45 days of the date it is determined the student withdrew, and offer any post-withdrawal disbursement of loan funds within 30 days of that date. Keystone will disburse any Title IV grant funds a student is due as part of a Post- withdrawal disbursement within 45 days of the date it is determined the student withdrew, and disburse any loan funds a student accepts within 180 days of that date. Unless a student subject to verification has provided all required verification documents in time for Keystone College to meet the return deadlines, Keystone will include as “Aid Disbursed” or “Aid That Could Have Been Disbursed” in the return calculation only those Title IV funds not subject to verification.
