Is it a Revision? Is it a Withdrawal? Can I ignore it? No Clear Census Date Need a system in place to monitor all drop/add activity. 1st step in the process is to determine if the student is actually Withdrawn.
Is it a Withdrawal? https://ifap.ed.gov/fsahandbook/attachments/1819FSAHbkVol5Ch2.p df When the student failed to attend or ceased attendance in a course were they actively attending another course? Are they scheduled to attend a later module and have they confirmed that in writing?
Could be a Pell Recalc? Did they begin attendance in all the credits you awarded Pell for? If not – Pell must be recalculated. You may also need to recalculate Pell before you perform an R2T4.
Determining Payment Period Dates Use the Dates the student was scheduled to attend Don’t include modules with no scheduled attendance Assess timing of the drops
Charges Use the charges as they appeared on the date of the withdrawal Books are included only if the institution charged them and the students didn’t have a reasonable means to get them elsewhere. Room and Board is included if the student is living on campus.
Withdrawal Date Schools Required to take Attendance: LDOA Schools not required to take Attendance: Use the Withdrawal date for Official withdrawals – with some exceptions. Scheduled Breaks – 5 days or more
