• Students eligible to receive federal financial aid (Pell Grants, Direct Loans or Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants) and withdraw from all courses before 60% of the term has elapsed may owe a portion of the federal financial aid disbursed. For example, if a student withdraws after completing 25% of the term, then they have earned 25% of their federal financial aid for the term and must return the remaining 75%.
• All balances must be paid before enrolling in subsequent terms.
• We strongly encourage students to meet with their Academic Advisor and the Financial Aid Office to discuss the implications of withdrawing.

• Any courses needing to be withdrawn after the drop/refund deadlines must be completed in writing.
• Withdrawing from a class can affect a student鈥檚 academic record, including their financial aid, enrollment status, veteran benefits or the amount owed to the institution if they are past the refund date.
• Before withdrawing from a course, a student is required to contact their assigned Academic Advisor before the withdrawal can be processed. Advisors will assist students via appointment or email at advising@kish.edu.
• Students may contact the Student Services Office at 815-825-9375 or onestop@kish.edu.
