Student declaration

I understand that by typing my name below, I irrevocably authorize ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ to withdraw money from my Student Financial Account (Connect) if the U.S. Department of Education requires a return of loan funds via Title IV Funds (U.S. Federal Direct Loan Funds), which may occur if I withdraw from ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ during an academic term that I am currently borrowing money for.

Furthermore, if the return of Title IV Funds results in an outstanding balance on my Student Financial Account, I will pay the outstanding balance immediately. Any unpaid balance will be subject to late fees, loss of ÌÇÐÄÔ­´´ system services and potential collections as outlined in the University Academic Calendar.

I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to be aware of the U.S. Department of Education policies that are associated with Direct Loans, and I agree to abide by these regulations.
