Limitation of Q Drops

Students will be allowed to drop (Q-drop) no more than five classes during their academic career at 麻豆精品. Classes dropped prior to the 12th class day will not be included in the calculation of the accumulated five Q-drop count. Students who have met their limit of five Q drops will need to petition the University Registrar for permission to drop any additional classes. If the Registrar denies the request to drop a class above the five Q-drop limit, the student will be required to remain in the class for the remainder of the term.

This policy will take effect with the start of the Fall 2004 semester. Any drops accumulated prior to the Fall 2004 will not be included in this calculation.  However; section 51.907 of the Texas Education code was enacted by the State of Texas in spring 2007 and applies to students who enroll in a public institution of higher education as first-time freshmen in fall 2007 or later and limits the number of courses a student is permitted to drop. Any course that a student drops is counted toward the limit if "(1) the student was able to drop the course without receiving a grade or incurring an academic penalty; (2) the student's transcript indicates or will indicate that the student was enrolled in the course; and (3) the student is not dropping the course in order to withdraw from the institution." Some exemptions for good cause could allow a student to drop a course without having it counted toward this limit, but it is the responsibility of the student to establish that good cause.

Any college student affected by this statute that has attended or plans to attend another institution of higher education should become familiar with that institution's policies on dropping courses.

Resignation Refund Policy

The student who officially withdraws from all of his/her courses for a given term from 麻豆精品 may be eligible for a refund of tuition and the specified fees, based upon the highest number of hours in which he or she is enrolled for the term.

Students that are registered for more than one part of term would not need to process a resignation unless they are dropping ALL class for ALL parts of term. Students process course drops as normal.

Refunds are made in accordance with the following refund schedule:

Resignation Refund Schedule (Fall/Spring)

Resignation Refund Schedule (Summer I & Summer II)

Resignation Refund Schedule (Mini)

NOTE: Class days are University class days, not the number of days an individual class meets. Class days are to be counted from the first class meeting of on-campus daytime courses as indicated in the Academic Calendar.

Counting Class Days For Refunds

Class days are University class days, not the number of days an individual class meets. Class days are to be counted from the first class meeting of on-campus daytime courses as indicated in the Academic Calendar.

Students who receive Title IV aid in the form of a Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Federal Stafford Loan or PLUS Loan and resign on or before completing 60% of the term will be required to repay the percentage of unearned financial aid according to the federal "A Return to Title IV Aid* formula from the 1998 Re-authorization of the Higher Education Act. The percentage of aid to be repaid to SFA programs is equal to the number of calendar days remaining in the term divided by the number of calendar days in the term.

Refunds are to be returned to lenders or program accounts in the following statutorily specified order provided the student has received funds from the account:

The above schedule assumes the student has paid his or her fees in full. A different schedule applies to the installment payment plan participants - the primary difference in the schedule being the requirement for the University to compute the refund based on the assumption that the full amount of tuition and fees has been collected. Therefore, it is possible, and probable, that a student in the installment plan could owe more in tuition and fees than already collected by the University. These extra amounts, if any, would be due and payable before the student would be allowed to resign from the University.

Students may determine their account balance via the Internet. They should select the "Financial System" option from the SamWeb link at the home page. (www.shsu.edu)
