If you receive (or your school or parent receives on your behalf ) excess Title IV program funds that must be returned, your school must return a por tion of the excess equal to the lesser of: 1. Your institutional charges multiplied by the unearned percentage of your funds, OR 2. The entire amount of excess funds. The school must return this amount even if it didn' t keep this amount of your Title IV program funds. If your school is not required to return all of the excess funds, you must return the remaining amount. Any loan funds that you must return, you (or your parent for a PLUS Loan) repay in accordance with the terms of the promissor y note. That is, you make scheduled payments to the holder of the loan over a period of time. Any amount of unearned grant funds that you must return is called an overpayment. The maximum amount of a grant overpayment that you must repay is half of the grant funds you received or were scheduled to receive. You must make arrangements with your school or the Depar tment of Education to return the unearned grant funds. The requirements for Title IV program funds when you withdraw are separate from any refund polic y that your school may have. Therefore, you may still owe funds to the school to cover unpaid institutional charges. Your school may also charge you for any Title IV program funds that the school was required to return.
