Extended session classes and financial aid eligibility

Classes that are held during the Extended Regular Session (session 011) are typically not financial aid eligible.

Academic Support Resources staff will be reaching out to departments with classes scheduled in the Extended Regular Session (011) for fall 2015 (1159) to determine if the classes are intended to be set up in a way that is financial aid ineligible, or if assistance in modifying class set-up to allow students to retain their financial aid eligibility is desired. The meeting pattern dates in Maintain Schedule of Classes are used to determine the actual dates of the classes and their financial aid eligibility.

ASR recognizes that some classes use the extended session to accommodate specific meeting patterns and that not all meeting patterns can meet federal financial aid eligibility guidelines. For those classes, departments need to make sure that students are aware of the impact.

If you schedule classes in the Extended Regular Session (011) and would proactively like to set up a time to discuss your class set-up and requirements, please contact Sarah Kussow, OCM Course & Scheduling Manager, directly.
