Federal Financial Aid Refund Policy

In addition to MATC’s refund policy, students receiving Title IV Federal Financial Aid are subject to the following:  The institution must determine the amount of federal financial aid to return based on a pro-rata basis.  If the student withdraws before completing more than 60% of the payment period, the student must return unearned funds (see the financial aid office for detailed calculations).  The student will be billed for any unearned funds including the amount of institutional charges (tuition, fees, books, supplies) the school had to return on the student’s behalf.
