的 Title IV Programs included in this 监管 are Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant, 教授予, 或联邦直接贷款. Federal Work-Study funds are not included in this 监管. 联邦退款规定要求雅典州立大学确定每个获得第四项助学金的学生“获得”的助学金金额，并在学期的60%点之前退出所有课程. 完成60%学期的学生被认为已经“赚到了”100%的第四章资金，他或她计划在此期间收到.
在学期中至少有一门课程成绩及格的学生不受第四章基金返还规定的约束.

This 监管 does not limit the University’s Refund Policy.
Additional Withdrawal Implications Information联邦法规限制了学生重修一门课程的次数，并限制了学生获得该课程的经济资助. 这些规则适用于学生是否在早期注册课程时获得资助.
学生只能重修一次以前通过的课程并获得第四章资助，只要(1)学生正在重修的课程符合学生的学位完成要求，(2)学校将为重复的课程授予学生额外的学分.
Once a 学生 has completed any course twice with a passing 年级, they are no longer eligible to receive aid for that course. 的 教育部 considers a passing 年级 as any 年级 great than a failing, 或“F”, 年级.
如果学生选择重修一门课程, 而且那门课没有资格获得资助, 经济援助办公室将重新计算学生的援助，将重复课程的学分从资格中排除.
A 学生 may receive aid when repeating a course that was previously 失败的 (received a 0.0), regardless 的 number of times the course was attempted and 失败的.
雅典州立大学已经批准了以下标准来定义令人满意的学术进步(SAP), in accordance with 监管s issued by the U.S. 教育部. 每学期结束时，助学金办公室会通知被列为警告的学生, 悬架, or become ineligible due to attempted hours.

2021-2022颁奖年度, 选择性服务和毒品定罪问题(以及通过FAFSA向选择性服务注册的选项)将保留在FAFSA上. 然而, 在接受联邦第四章援助期间，未在选择性服务部门注册或有毒品定罪将不再影响学生的第四章援助资格, 如果符合所有其他资格标准，未注册或有毒品定罪的学生可能有资格获得第四章援助.
