All students anticipating a need for financial assistance (loans, grants and scholarships) rn'ust arrange for their parents to file a financial statement with College Scholarship Service. Applications for financial aid will not be processed until this statement has been received by Biola College. A student is not registered and cannot attend classes until satisfactory financial arrangements have been made with the Office of Student Financial Services. REFUNDS Inasmuch as faculty engagements and other commitments are made by the college for the entire year in advance, the following refund schedule has been established in order that the college and the student may share the loss equitably when it is necessary for a student to withdraw from school: Withdrawal within the first two weeks of classes. 1. Tuition-full amount, less $50.00 (Students with six or fewer units, $25.00; Auditors, $20.00). 2. Board-pro-rated as of end of week in which meal ticket is turned in to cashier. 3 . Room-pro-rated as of end of the month in which student withdraws. Withdrawal after the second week and before the end of the eighth week of classes: 1. Tuition-pro-rated as of end of week in which student withdraws. 2. Board-same as above. 3. Room-same as above but pro-rated by the week if room is re-rented before end of month. Withdrawal after eighth week of classes: 1. Tuition-no refund.

2. Board-same as above. 3. Room-same as above.

Tuition refunds for class changes (where applicable) will be made in the same manner as refunds for withdrawals (i.e. - full refund within first two weeks of classes and pro-rated refund after second week until end of eighth week). All refunds must be requested by properly completing and submitting a Departure Card, the official withdrawal date determining the amount of refund. Laboratory and activity fees are refundable only if withdrawal is on or before the final date of late registration. Music Fees are for private music lessons and are refundable in the same manner as tuition , except no refund after the 6th week. FINANCIAL AID INFORMATION It is the desire of Biola College, within the limits of its resources, to provide financial assistance to all needy students, especially those who, without such aid, would not be able to attend Biola College. The Office of Student Financial Services offers counseling and assistance in ascertaining the most appropriate forms of financial aid for each student. Most financial aid awards are based on demonstrated financial need.
