If a student receives (or the College receives on the student’s behalf), more assistance than the student has earned, the unearned excess funds must be returned to the U.S. Department of Education. If, on the other hand, the student receives (or the College receives on the student’s behalf) less assistance than the student has earned, the student may be able to receive those additional funds.</p> <p>The portion of the federal grants and loans a student is entitled to receive is calculated on a percentage basis by comparing the total number of days in the semester to the number of days completed before the student’s withdrawal. For example, if a student completes 30 percent of the semester, the student earns 30 percent of the assistance he/she was originally scheduled to receive. This means that 70 percent of the scheduled awards remain unearned and must be returned to the federal government. A student has to complete more than 60 percent of the semester, in order to earn all (100 percent) of the scheduled assistance. If a student withdraws (either officially or unofficially) before this point, the student may have to return any unearned federal monies that may have already been disbursed to the student.</p> <p>The College shares responsibility with the student for any excess funds, which must be returned. The College’s portion of the excess funds to be returned is equal to the lesser of:</p> <ul><li>the entire amount of the excess funds, or</li> <li>the student’s total tuition and fee charges multiplied by the percentage of the unearned funds.</li> </ul><p>If the College is not required to return all of the excess funds, the student must return the remaining amount. Any loan funds that are returned by the student must be paid according to the terms of the promissory note. If a student returns any grant funds, the law provides that the amount to be repaid is reduced by 50 percent. This means that a student only has to return half of any excess funds received.</p> <p>Any amount a student returns is considered a federal grant overpayment. The student must either return that amount in full or make satisfactory arrangements with either the College or the Department of Education to repay the amount. These arrangements must be completed within 45 days of the date of the College’s notifying the student of overpayment. Any student failing to do so risks loss of eligibility for further federal financial assistance.</p></div> </div> <div class="block block--inline-block--text node__inline-text container"> <div><h2>Financial Aid Census</h2> <p>Financial Aid Census Date (or Financial Aid Certification Date), is the date that John Jay College will take a snapshot of your enrollment for the semester. This snapshot is taken considering the classes for which a student is enrolled at the beginning of the day (12:00 am Eastern Time) on the Census Date in CUNYfirst. All class enrollment changes must be made prior to the Financial Aid Census Date for the semester, in order for classes to be counted toward a student’s Financial Aid enrollment level.</p> <p>Please check the Deadlines on the sidebar to view the Census Dates for each semester.</p></div> </div> <div class="block block--inline-block--accordion accordion container"> <div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--accordion-item paragraph--view-mode--default"> <button aria-expanded="false" class="accordion__trigger"> <h3>Key Financial Aid Census Date Notes</h3> <span class="accordion__trigger__icon"></span> </button> <div class="accordion__content"> <div><ul><li>Since your enrollment level (full-time, 3/4 time, 1/2 time, or less than halftime) determines your grant eligibility for the term, this enrollment snapshot will determine what your actual grant and/or loan payment will be.</li> <li>In addition, if you drop below half-time by the Financial Aid Census Date and already received a payment at the full-time, 3/4 time, or 1/2 time level you will be considered to have been overpaid and will need to return funds to John Jay College.</li> <li> If you add classes after the Financial Aid Census Date, those classes will not be counted toward your Financial Aid enrollment level for grant and/or loan payment purposes.</li> <li>If you drop classes after the Financial Aid Census Date, those classes will be counted toward your Financial Aid enrollment level for grant and/or loan payment purposes (unless you do not attend the class). However, if you drop too many classes it could affect your Satisfactory Academic Progress status by lowering your completion rate.

After they have earned 120 or more credits, they will be considered graduate students for federal aid purposes until the completion of their program. At this point, the student will no longer be eligible to receive federal grants (Pell, SEOG, etc.) and/or subsidized loans.
