For traditional day undergraduate students in ALL programs and graduate students in the Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, and Speech-Language Pathology programs, the One Fee is inclusive of textbooks and other course materials, which are provided to students in these programs by the first day of class on a rental basis. The One Fee is included in the student account and may be paid from any eligible financial aid. Click here for more information regarding the One Fee.
Undergraduate Students
Upon receipt of a letter of admission to the day program at Maryville, each prospective student must submit an enrollment tuition advance payment of $250 to hold a place in the entering class. The advance payment applies toward expenses for the student’s first term of enrollment at Maryville. This advance payment is refundable upon written request received on or before May 1 for students entering the summer or fall term and on or before December 1 for the spring term.
University Housing and Food Service
The Housing Contract is for the entire academic year. Each student wishing to live in university residence halls or apartment housing must submit a housing advanced payment of $300. This deposit secures a space for the student in University housing and applies toward expenses for the student’s first term of housing at Maryville.
New Students to Housing: If the Residential Life Office receives written notice of cancellation of a signed contract by May 1st for the fall semester, December 1 for the spring semester and May 1 for summer session(s) prior to the beginning of any contract period, a refund of the advanced payment will be made. Cancellations after May 1st result in forfeiture of the advanced payment.
Returning students to Housing: All requests for cancellations of the housing contract shall be made by emailing a letter of cancelation to the Housing Operations and Project Specialist. Cancelations are subject to financial penalty. Please refer to the housing contract for more information regarding cancellation.
The residence hall contract costs include both room and meal plan charges. All students living in the residence halls are required to have a meal plan. University housing and meal plan charges are made on an academic year basis. Reductions are not made for weekends or other time spent off-campus.

The University reserves the right not to renew a student’s housing contract at the end of any term. Student contracts may be terminated at any time for a violation of the terms and conditions therein.

Payment
If the student’s financial aid amount is less than 100 percent of the semester charges, it is the student’s responsibility to make the necessary payment arrangements with the Student Service Center for the remaining amount by the semester payment due date posted.
The financial aid award letter found in the student portal will verify the amount of financial aid available to and accepted by the student. Financial aid is not disbursed to the student’s account until the semester begins, usually the beginning of the second week of classes. Some external funding sources send payment later in the semester. Students with confirmed accepted awards may take credit for all funding regardless of the actual payment date as long as it is within the first half of the semester.
Students who are registered are responsible for the session’s tuition and fees unless they notify the Student Service Center (or other appropriate registration center) prior to the beginning of their classes that they do not plan to attend. Non-attendance does not establish a basis for nonpayment. If payment arrangements have not been made by the semester’s payment due date, there is a late payment fee of $100. Students who are still lacking payment arrangements as of the start of the term/semester may be automatically enrolled in the monthly payment plan and subject to payment plan late fees for installments missed or not paid in full. The University reserves the right to penalize any student who fails to meet his/her financial obligations including deletion from classes. Students who are withdrawn may be liable for all charges on their student accounts at the time of withdrawal.
Students with delinquent accounts from prior terms may be deleted from classes the day following the applicable payment due date.
Students who have an outstanding balance on their account as of the end of the semester may be contacted by a third party company on Maryville’s behalf regarding their balance. This attempt to resolve your balance will not have a negative impact on your credit.
However, in the event the account remains unresolved, it may be necessary to use external collection procedures to collect amounts not paid. The student may be responsible for paying the collection agency fee which may be based on a percentage, up to a maximum of 50% of the deliquent account, together with all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, necessary for the collection of the deliquent account. The deliquent account may be reported to one or more of the national credit bureaus.
Registration is not permitted for students carrying outstanding balances from a previous semester until those balances have been paid in full. Students who are in debt to the University at the end of any term are not permitted to receive transcripts, recommendations, placement services, or diplomas, etc., until all bills have been paid. Late fees may be assessed on past due accounts.
All expenses are subject to change as deemed necessary by Maryville University. All fees are nonrefundable.

Upon receipt of the authorized billing forms, the company will be billed approximately six weeks after the semester begins. If the student has not received authorization, voucher, approval tuition forms, etc., from the company by the payment due date, the student must complete, sign, and submit a Semester Payment Agreement form indicating an estimated date of receipt of the forms.

If accepted aid does not cover the entire balance, pay the difference in full or enroll in one or more of the applicable payment plans by the payment deadline.
Federal Parent Loan (PLUS)
Parents may use the Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) to pay all or part of the difference between direct and indirect costs and the student’s financial aid. This may be arranged through the Student Service Center (SSC). If the entire financial aid award (including the Parent Loan) exceeds direct cost (balance due to University), the overage may be used to charge supplies related to coursework through the Maryville bookstore to the student’s account. When funds are disbursed, if a credit is generated, it will be refunded to either the student or parent once charges on the account have been deducted. WHo receives the refund is determined by the parent borrower when completing the Federal loan process. Payment of any charge(s) generated after a refund is issued is the responsibility of the student and is due immediately unless otherwise specified.

In the event of extenuating circumstances and the student cannot utilize one of these options, a Semester Payment Agreement must be completed at the Student Service Center, Gander Hall, Suite 124 by the semester’s payment due date. This agreement is a contract between the student and the University outlining payment arrangements.
For more information regarding completing the forms required and making payment, please contact the Student Service Center at ssc@maryville.edu or 314.529.9360.
Withdrawal and Refund Policies
|
^Top |
Students considering withdrawal should consult with their instructor and adviser or life coach. Withdrawal may affect academic progress, financial aid eligibility and University financial obligations. In any withdrawal, students are responsible for determining the impact, both financially and academically, before moving forward.
The Student Service Center/Registrar determines the date of withdrawal.
Undergraduate Students Withdrawal from a Course
To withdraw from a course, the student must complete a course withdrawal form obtaining the adviser’s signature. The course withdrawal is not complete until the withdrawal request has been processed by the Registrar. Check the academic calendar for withdrawal deadlines. It is the student’s responsibility to obtain the necessary signatures and submit the form to the Student Service Center (or for WEC students to the Weekend and Evening College Office) for processing. Students who withdraw from a course before the applicable deadline will receive a withdrawal (“W”) designation on their transcript. Students who withdraw after the deadline will receive a letter grade based on their level of fulfillment.
Students who withdraw from a 6 or 8 week course have a different withdrawal deadline than the 16-week courses. Check the academic calendar for the withdrawal deadlines for all courses.
Withdrawal from the University
Students who find it necessary to withdraw from all courses must complete an institutional withdrawal form and obtain all applicable signature. The institutional withdrawal form must be returned to the Student Service Center for processing before the withdrawal will take effect. Weekend and Evening College students may submit the institutional withdrawal form to either the Student Service Center or the Weekend and Evening College Offices.
Institutional withdrawals must be initiated by the last date of withdrawal for the term as stated in the academic calendar.
Students will receive a withdrawal (“W”) designation on their transcript for each class in the current term.
A student who withdraws from all courses in an academic program that is at capacity or has sequential coursework and intends to return must discuss the withdrawal with the Dean and Program Director (if appropriate) to determine if a space in the program will be available upon the student’s return to the University. The student must also state in writing the reason(s) for withdrawal and include the date they expect to return to the University. The decision to retain a space is at the discretion of the Dean and Program Director. If a student is not enrolled at Maryville University for more than two (2) consecutive semesters, he/she must reapply for the University and the program through the Office of Admissions or Weekend and Evening College.
Students participating in a varsity athletic program should discuss withdrawal with the Athletic Department.
Students who have contracted for on campus housing should discuss withdrawal with the Housing Department. Once withdrawn, a student may no longer live on campus.
If the decision is made to retain a space for the student, the Dean and Program Director will notify the academic adviser and the Registrar of the decision and the anticipated reentry date of the student.
Graduate students must contact their program director in order to obtain the appropriate procedures and forms.
International students must contact the Office of Global Education to initiate the process of withdrawing from a course or from the University. An international student withdrawal form is necessary and requires signatures of both the Office of Global Education and the academic adviser.

Undergraduate Financial Aid
|
^Top |
Financial assistance may come from many different funding sources:
Gift Aid
Gift aid includes scholarships (awards for academic achievement, community service, demonstrated leadership, etc.) and grants (funding to meet a student’s need as determined by the Federal formula provided by the FAFSA). These programs reduce school costs but do not require repayment and/or work as a condition of receiving the funds.
Maryville has a wide range of institutional scholarship programs from the Presidential Scholarship for incoming, full-time freshmen, covering tuition and residence hall costs inlcuding board to Academic Scholarships for both incoming freshmen and new, full time, transfer students. There are also competitive scholarships like Athletic Scholarships and restricted scholarships (with individual criteria such as state of residence, community service, program of study, etc).which, if selected, will be shown on the award letter along with renewal criteria, if applicable.
Scholarships awarded directly to the student from outside sources are added to the award, becoming part of the total package of aid. The amount of the private award can impact eligibility in other programs as can the criteria of the program itself. Please provide information regarding funding from private external source to the Student Service Center as soon as possible to insure the student is receiving credit for the scholarship amount regardless of when the University receives funds and any impact on other aid or charges can be determined. Student athletes receiving private, outside funding should also complete and submit the NCAA Private Funding Certification Form for each external program of funding. The total of all Institutional gift aid cannot exceed Institutional direct costs.
Student loans (repaid with interest after leaving the University) may reduce both direct (tuition, fees, campus housing) and indirect costs (living expenses, transportation, day care). College work study or Institutional campus employment (working on or off campus) provide pay through the University Payroll Department to a bank account specified by the student employee through the direct deposit process or, if preferred, a monthly paycheck.
Federal loans allow students to defer loan repayment until after leaving the University or dropping below half-time student status. Some loans carry an interest subsidy. All have long-term repayment and Congressional controlled, interest rates. There are also privately funded alternative loan programs designed to supplement institutionally administered programs. These are not federally insured and can carry a higher, fixed or variable interest rate, require a credit worthy cosigner and a favorable credit history. To research private lending, check with your own bank or: https://www.maryville.edu/admissions/financial-aid/online-resources/
Undergraduate campus employment is awarded through financial aid. It can be either on or off-campus, partially or completely funded by the University and requiring five to 15 hours per week throughout the semester. Earnings are deposited directly into the bank account specified by the student twice monthly after time is confirmed by supervisors and submitted on the last day of the month of employment.
Need-based programs are determined by the federal government’s formula which affixes a value to a family’s income and assets. That value is the family’s “ability to pay” or Expected Family Contribution (EFC), sent to the University via the Federal Application for Aid (FAFSA), which is deducted from a school’s costs (tuition, fees, housing, books, miscellaneous, etc.) to establish a family’s need. Students must complete a FAFSA each year to determine a full financial aid package. Students must provide their social security number in order for the University to establish access to the student’s FAFSA.
Financial Aid awards are a combination of available aid from the scholarships, grants, loans and employment programs for which students have established eligibility put together into a “package.” Aid is time sensitive so the December 1 Priority Date for application completion is very important to maximize funding.
Applicants for financial aid must be accepted for admission to the University as a degree or certificate seeking students in order to qualify for any institutionally administered financial aid. Official academic transcripts from all previously attended post-secondary schools whether coursework is transferable or not, successfully completed or not must be submitted at the point of admission in order to receive financial aid.
When it is determined that a student will not complete his or her intended degree program within 150% of the total hours required to successfully complete the degree (192 credit hours for most undergraduate degrees), aid will no longer be available (grants, loans, college work study). Some but not all scholarship programs may continue to be awarded.
Second undergraduate (and graduate) degrees may be funded through loan programs only. For students working on a second undergraduate degree, the only available aid is the Federal and private loan programs. The maximum allowable from the Federal Stafford Direct Student Loan Programs for any and all undergraduate course work is $57,500. Any money borrowed for the original baccalaureate degree would be deducted from the ceiling to determine loan funds still available. The actual dollar amount is determined by filing a FAFSA for each academic year of study. Students will receive notification of funding eligibility per semester and the criteria to receive and maintain that funding.
Graduate/Doctoral Financial Aid
|
^Top |
Students accepted into a graduate or doctoral program taking a minimum of three credit hours per semester may apply for federally funded loans.
Each academic year of graduate coursework offers a maximum of $20,500 (6.00% interest for 7/01/2017 to 6/30/2018) in available Federal Stafford Direct Loan funds. A graduate or doctoral candidate may also supplement Federal Stafford unsubsidized loans with the Federal Grad PLUS program which requires a credit check and carries a higher (7.00% fixed) interestfor 7/01/2017 to 6/30/2018 . Interest begins accruing upon disbursement. Limited scholarship aid is available by School/College. The Federal ceiling for borrowing from the Direct Stafford Loan program for post baccalaureate students (including UG borrowing) is $138,500.
Financial Aid Online/Telephone Resources
www.collegeboard.org – Provides information about colleges and universities across the country, admissions requirements, funding opportunities and time lines.
www.aauw.org – Sponsored by the American Association of University Women, this site contains information directed to help promote education among women in all fields of study.
www.finaid.org – Federal website with extensive financial aid information including definitions, explanations and additional resources. One of the interactive features is an EFC Estimator with which an applicant can answer questions regarding income, asset, family size and number in college and be given an idea of the family’s expected contribution to college costs using federal methodology. It also will explain how this number then can be used to estimate funding available from schools of varying costs.

Annual Financial Aid Application Procedures
As early as possible after October 1 and keeping in mind the December 1 priority date to maximize funding eligibility, complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid). This must be done for each academic year to determine all funding. Complete at www.fafsa.gov. Returning students complete a Renewal FAFSA.
Both student and at least one parent (for dependent students) should have a FSA ID to access the federal processing system. It is both a security code and identification system so it should be kept and used whenever accessing or revising information in the Federal database. It also serves as identity verification for an e-signature for filing, correcting information on file in the Federal data base and signing Federal loan promissory notes.
If you do not have a FSA ID, you may apply for one when filing the FAFSA, completing loan processes or at https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/fafsa/filling-out/fsaid . With this individual code, you may electronically sign U.S. Department of Education documents including your FAFSA and promissory note for the Federal Direct student and parent loan programs. It also may be used to make corrections on-line, reapply for financial aid, view the federal loan database and add schools for data release.
When filing the FAFSA, if the student and/or parents have filed their Federal tax return, use the Data Retrieval option to download 1040 data directly from the IRS to the FAFSA. The system will populate the necessary fields with the appropriate answers, saving time and helping in the verification process. Not all tax filers may use this option but if available, it is an option that both saves time and improves accuracy. The tax year used to apply for aid for 2017-2018 is 2015. NExt year (2018-2019) the 2016 tax year will be used. Students may begin filing the FAFSA for Fall 2018 on October 1, 2017.
If you have been selected for verification by the Federal processor (CPS), contact the Student Service Center to determine what additional paperwork is needed to complete your file for processing (IRS Tax Transcript, W-2 forms, Verification Worksheet, Tax Non-Filer form, Social Security Card, Selective Service Registration, citizenship documentation, etc. income and asset report). Signed copies of Federal tax returns are not acceptable documentation for tax information unless specified. If the student and/or parent did not use the IRS data retrieval option when completing the the FAFSA or later in the correction stage, IRS Transcripts procured from the Internal Revenue Service directly must be provided as part of verification. To obtain IRS transcripts go to one of the following sources to make the request:
- IRS website: www.irs.gov Click Order a Transcript
- Call the IRS at 1-800-908-9946 Select Option 2
When providing information to identify the filers for which you want the transcripts, be certain the information is the mirror image of the information on the tax return (e.g. if the tax return reports you live at 10 North Street do not indicate 10 North St. in your request). Unless the data is exact, it will slow down or reject the request.
When your eligibility is determined and an award packaged, you will be notified by email how to access your Maryville Financial Aid Letter on your student portal under Access Maryville-Financial Aid. While grants and scholarships do not usually require any action on your part in order to signify acceptance of the award, campus employment as well as Federal student and parent loans will require the student’s acceptance or rejection through the portal. Loans require further processing with the Federal website and campus employment requires interviewing for available positions and completing payroll documents. Please do not leave funding at a Penging or Estiamted status. When you have determined whether yo want the funds or not, signify by registering ACCEPT or REJECT on the third page of the Award Letter.
Changes to any information may result in a change to the award. For example, if a student switches from resident to commuter, full- time to half-time, two family members in college to one, a private outside scholarship and/or loan is added to the funding-any of these might cause a change to the programs, amounts or criteria of a financial aid award. Be certain to check with the SSC or on-line in your portal for any potential changes.
All scholarships are financial resources and, as such, must be taken into account when an award is being packaged. If you receive a scholarship from a source other than the University, notify the Student Service Center immediately if it does not appear on the award. Student athletes receiving private, outside funding complete and submit the NCAA Private Funding Certification Form for each external source.
Funding Availability
Funding sources, dollar amounts and criteria for receipt are determined by the formula used by the federal processor to determine a family’s ability to pay (EFC), the current academic level of the student, the number of credit hours taken, previous aid received and the number of weeks (or days) the class is in session.
The number of credit hours taken each semester is a major determinant in financial aid programs providing funding. The enrollment ranges for undergraduate students working on their first undergraduate degree and potential funding programs are as follows:
2–5 credit hours |
Less than Half-Time Pell Grant |
6–8 credit hours |
Half-Time Pell Grant, Missouri Ross Barnett Grant, Federal Student Loans |
9–11 credit hours |
3/4-Time: Pell Grant, Missouri Ross Barnett Grant, Federal Student Loans |
12 hrs WEC/Evening |
Full-Time Pell Grant, Access Missouri Grant, Federal Student Loans |
12–18 hrs Day or 13–18 hrs WEC/Evening |
All Federal Grant and Loan Programs, Access Missouri Grant, Bright Flight, All Institutional grants and scholarship, employment programs |
3 -18 Graduate/Doctoral Hours |
Federal Student Loans/Graduate Level: $20,500 per academic year
|
3 -18 Graduate/Doctoral Hours For Occupational & Physical Therapy |
Federal Student Loans/Graduate Level: $20,500 per academic year
|
Should a student wish to pursue funding other than the programs administered by and through the University, information pertaining to alternative loan programs are available on-line on the Financial Aid menu under Online Resources. The University will work with any private lending institution the student selects. Students are not restricted to the companies listed on the website. They are intended as an information resource not an endorsement. No student may receive total funding that exceeds the Cost of Attendance for the program, classification and status of the registration.
Federal Financial Aid Student Eligibility
|
^Top |
Federal Aid is governed by congressional regulation through the Federal Department of Education which stipulates certain mandatory requirements in order to be considered for funding. Some of the regulations mandated for applicants to receive aid are:
- U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen with a valid Social Security Number.
- High school graduate or General Education Development (GED) recipient.
- Official transcripts provided from all previously attended post secondary programs regardless of successful completion or transferability of credit hours.
- Accepted into a Maryville degree or certificate program.
- If male between the ages of 18-25, registered with the Selective Service.
- Not currently in default on federal student loan.
- Not convicted of an offense involving either the possession or sale of illegal drugs.
- Able to complete degree within 150% of the hours required to earn the degree.
Financial aid funds are finite. To insure that you receive funding from all available sources, apply early. Paperwork received and files completed after December 1 run the risk of amounts being diminished or programs being depleted.
Applicants for financial aid must be accepted for admission to the University as degree or certificate seeking students in order to qualify for any institutionally administered financial aid. Official academic transcripts from all previously attended post-secondary schools whether coursework is transferable or not must be submitted in order to receive financial aid.
When it is determined that a student will not complete his or her intended degree program within 150% of the total hours required to successfully complete the degree (192 credit hours for most baccaluareate programs), aid will no longer be available (grants, loans, college work study). Some but not all scholarship programs may be awarded.
Students must apply for both merit-based (scholarships) and need-based (grants, loans, employment) financial aid each year. In the case of need-based financial aid, financial need may be recalculated, based on changes in University costs and family financial situations.
To ensure financial aid is in place to be used as all or part of a student’s semester payment arrangement, material should be received by the University no later than July 1 for fall and November 15 for spring terms.
The University reserves the right to transfer funds from one gift aid program to another. When an award is calculated, it is based on the information available at that time. If changes occur or additional information is obtained, this can affect the source and amount from which awards are ultimately provided.
Veterans’ Benefits
Veterans and their dependents who may be eligible for benefits including the Yellow Ribbon Program can receive information and applications through the V.A. representative located in the Student Service Center.
The V.A. representative routinely reports eligibility, and when a veteran has withdrawn from a class or from the University, to the Veterans Administration Regional Offices, .
https://www.maryville.edu/admissions/veterans-and-military-information/
Vocational Rehabilitation
To apply for benefits, students with disabilities must contact the Vocational Rehabilitation Office, State of Missouri. Authorization to bill the Vocational Rehabilitation Office must be submitted to the Student Service Center by each semester’s payment deadline listed in class schedules. Authorizations will be processed by the Student Accounting staff.
Financial Aid Refund Policy
Financial Aid accepted by the student may be used to pay all or part of tuition, housing, board, fees, books and supplies unless they are tuition specific (e.g. Barat, Duchesne, Mouton Scholarships). In the event aid is not in place by the payment deadline, students should make alternative payment arrangements with the Student Service Center or on-line in their - My Maryville Account. Refunds created by disbursement of financial aid may be deposited into a student-specified account electronically or a check mailed to the student’s permanent address. Allow up to two weeks for either on-line transfer of funds or paper checks to be issued after funds are applied to the student’s account. To request a credit balance not be refunded, submit a request in writing to the Student Service Center. To have it refunded to a Payee or address other than the student, submit a request in writing with the student’s original signature. Credit balances may not be held after the end of the academic year.
Impact on Aid When Withdrawing From Classes
Students with University-approved financial aid who withdraw from classes before classes begin, forfeit all aid. If books and supplies have been charged to the student’s account, these items must be returned following Bookstore procedures. If they are not, this creates balance due to be paid immediately by the student. Any hours already worked for a college work-study assignment will be paid through the payroll process. The check will be mailed using the permanent address on file for the student.
The date the Registrar determines as the “date of withdrawal” is used to determine any potential adjustment to financial aid. This date is:
- the verifiable date the student began the withdrawal process
OR
- the date the student provided official notification of the intent to withdraw
OR
- for the student who does not follow the University’s withdrawal policy or notify the University of the intent to withdraw, the midpoint of the enrollment period for which aid was disbursed.
In each instance, if a later date of attendance can be documented, that is the date that will be used as the date of withdrawal.
When calculating the percentage of the semester completed, the total number of calendar days within the enrollment period will be divided into the number of calendar days from the beginning of the term until the student’s withdrawal date. Periods of five consecutive days or more in which classes are not held (e.g. Thanksgiving holiday or Spring Break) are not included in the equation.
The amount of funding earned (maintained) by the student is calculated by determining the percentage of the enrollment period completed as of the official date of withdrawal. The difference is the unearned portion of financial aid that will be refunded to the appropriate aid program. If the student withdraws after the 60 percent point in the semester, the percentage of assistance earned is 100 percent. Unearned funds will be refunded by the school to the appropriate financial aid program.
The amount the school must return is the lesser of the unearned amount of assistance, or the institutional charges incurred for the enrollment period multiplied by the unearned percentage.
The amount the student must return is the unearned assistance minus the amount the University returns. The order of program funding return is as follows:
- Unsubsidized Federal direct loans
- Subsidized Federal direct loans
- Federal Grad PLUS
- Federal Parent PLUS
- Pell Grant
- SEOG
- Teach Grant
Aid yet to be disbursed for which the student is eligible is included in the calculation of earned and unearned assistance. When students (or parents in the case of a Parent PLUS loan) are required to return a portion or the entire loan proceeds, the calculated amount is to be repaid according to the terms of the loan program.
Students receiving aid from the State of Missouri requiring full-time enrollment as part of the funding criteria must be enrolled in 12 credit hours at the time the funds are received and disbursed. If the student has dropped below the requisite number of hours prior to this date, the funds will be returned to the State. A student must also maintain a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 for all State funding each semester.
Programs funded in their entirety by the University will be pro-rated at the same percentage used by Student Accounting in pro-rating tuition charges (percentage of aid):
First week of classes |
100 percent Refunded to Funding Program |
Second week of classes |
75 percent Refunded to Funding Program |
Third week of classes |
50 percent Refunded to Funding Program |
Fourth week and Beyond |
No Aid will be Refunded to Funding Program |
Non-attendance of classes once registration is complete does not constitute official withdrawal from that class or the University. To ensure the appropriate and timely financial aid adjustment, be certain to follow the withdrawal procedures or call one of the registration centers or Student Service Center to determine the student’s responsibility in the process. The University reserves the right to delete a student’s enrollment from a class(es) if it is determined the student never attended the class, including class activity prior to 1st class meeting.
Refunds
In the event that a credit is generated on a student’s account, the Student Service Center will issue a refund to the student and either electronically transfer to a student specified account via the student’s online refund profile on My Account or mail a check to the permanent address on file. This process can take up to two weeks from the date of the credit-generating disbursement. Any changes added to the account after the refund is requested are the responsibility of the student and should be paid upon billing (e.g. bookstore vouchers, student fees including test or insurance fees, added classes, etc.) Any decrease in charges generating an additional credit once a refund has been delivered to the student we encourage the student submit a request to generate a second refund.
Students wanting credits to be maintained on his or her student account must request in writing a refund not be issued. Credits not absorbed by subsequent charges will be refunded to the student within 30 days of the end of the academic year for which the funds were disbursed.
Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy
The U. S Department of Education requires students to meet and maintain satisfactory academic progress (SAP) in any degree program in order to receive Federal funding. Students who are not making SAP when they initially apply for Federal funding at Maryville will not be eligible for Federal financial aid at Maryville until SAP is met under the terms of the policy or the student submits an acceptable appeal for aid that upon review is approved.
The Financial Aid Office will review Satisfactory Academic Progress for financial aid recipients at the close of each semester upon release of all grades by the Registrar. This review will include a qualitative (GPA), quantitative (pace of completion) and maximum time frame for completion (150%) as discussed below. These apply to all aid recipients at Maryville.
Qualitative Measurement
The quality of a student’s progress is measured by grade point average (cumulative GPA). While there are programs that have a higher minimum GPA requirements than the standard required for continued enrollment (2.0), these should be determined by reviewing the individual program in question in the catalog. For the sake of this example, the standard will be used as that is the minimum requirements for Maryville enrollment into an undergraduate, degree-seeking program. If a student at the end of the semester has lower than a 2.0 cumulative GPA, they are on warning. By the close of the next semester of attendance, the GPA must be raised to the minimum 2.0. If it is not, the student is dismissed. They may appeal the dismissal which is reviewed and approval of reinstatement is determined on a case-by-case basis.
Quantitative Measurement
The quantity of a student’s progress is measured by the cumulative completion rate (credit hours successfully completed divided by the credit hours attempted). Students must successfully complete a total of 75% of attempted credit hours at each SAP review period.
Successful completion is defined as credit hours completed with a a minimum of “D” resulting in GPA credit hours being awarded. Attempted credits include successfully completed courses, accepted transfer credit, courses dropped after the deadline, failed or not passed courses, repeated courses, courses that are not completed, course withdrawals and transfer credit not accepted into the student’s degree program. Courses for which a student receives delayed or incomplete grades are counted as attempted but not successfully completed until a final passing grade is officially posted to the student’s permanent record. Repeated courses or courses with a grade of I (incomplete), DG (Delayed Grade), F, AF, NA, NE, W(withdrawal), or U (unofficial withdrawal) do not count toward the earned hours required to establish satisfactory academic progress and may lead to financial aid warning or suspension.
Maximum Time frame (Pace)
Students receiving Federal financial aid must complete their educational program within a time frame no longer than 150% of the published length of the educational program. For example, if the degree requires 128 credit hours (100%),150% would equal hours or 128+64. The student may not retain aid if it is determined he or she will not earn the degree by 192 credit hours. For students who transfer into the University, this maximum includes attempted credit hours at other colleges and universities attended whether Maryville accepted the credit hours or such credit hours are applied to the student’s degree program.
Where the review shows it is o longer mathematically possible for a student to complete within 150% of the published length of the program, the student’s eligibility for Federal Title IV /State aid will be terminated.
Undergraduate students earning a baccalaureate degree are encouraged to plan their course load in order to complete approximately one-fourth of the graduation requirements each year.
- Number of hours needed are:
- Full-time undergraduate students must register for a minimum of 12 credit hours for each semester of enrollment for which full-time aid is received.
- Three-quarter time undergraduate students must register for complete a minimum of nine credit hours for each semester of enrollment for which three-quarter time aid is received.
- Half-time undergraduate students must register for a minimum of six credit hours for each semester of enrollment for which half-time aid is received.
- Less than half-time undergraduate students will register for a minimum of two hours if less than half time aid is received.
- Students must successfully complete the minimum number of hours each semester and each year.
- Full-time undergraduate students should successfully complete 12 hours for one semester/24 credits for the academic year.
- Three-quarter time undergraduate students successfully complete nine hours per semester/18 credits for the academic year.
- Half-time undergraduate students should successfully complete six hours for a semester and 12 credits for the academic year.
- Less than half-time undergraduate students should complete two (2) credit hours for one semester
- Financial Aid Warning will go into effect when, at the end of any semester the following occur:
-
The cumulative GPA is below 2.0 for the previous semester.
-
The pace is below 75% - hours successfully completed divided by hours attempted.
- Financial Aid Suspension will go into effect when, at the end of any semester the following occur:
- A. The cumulative GPA is below 2.0 for two consecutive semesters
- B. The pace is below 75% for a second consecutive semester.
At the end of each semester, academic records are reviewed for all financial aid recipients to identify those who have not met the satisfactory academic progress standards. Students will receive email notification if they are being placed on financial aid warning or suspension.
Aid will pay one time for a course that is being repeated. If repeated more than once, aid will not pay nor will the class count as part of satisfactory progression.
Financial Aid Warning allows a student one semester of continued aid at the end of which the total hours successfully completed must equal the minimum required for the pace formula. Students passing the requisite number of hours by the end of the semester of warning will be fully reinstated and the warning status dropped. Aid remains the same unless the cumulative GPA is too low for scholarship renewal.
If students fail to successfully complete the minimum hours by the end of the semester of warning and are placed on Financial Aid Suspension may submit a written appeal to the Director of Financial Aid by the deadline indicated stating the reasons they believe there were extenuating circumstances that affected their academic performance, what has happened to eliminate these circumstances and an academic plan to correct the failure to progress satisfactorily. The Director of Financial Aid will refer the appeal to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee that will review the student request and statement of extenuating circumstances. The student will receive (via email) written confirmation of the Appeals Committee’s decision which, if the appeal is approved, will include an academic plan the student must follow to reinstate aid and change the suspension status to probation. A student may not appeal failure to meet the terms of the academic plan for aid reinstatement.
Students on financial aid suspension may be reinstated on probation after one year if they document comparable satisfactory progress at Maryville or at another college or university during that period of time.
Students receiving institutional scholarship funding which carries an additional GPA requirement will be reviewed for credit hours progress each semester; however, the GPA will be monitored at the end of each academic year to determine renewability for the next academic year unless otherwise required by the program (e.g. TEACH Grant, Access Missouri, Academic Plan set as a result of an approved appeal).
Because of the time needed to procure and review academic progress, students should be aware of the minimum progress requirements and anticipate actions needed to address a semester where credits are not accumulated successfully.

Satisfactory Academic Progress for Graduate Studies and Appeal
Graduate students receiving financial aid are required to successfully complete a minimum number of credit hours to fulfill the terms of receiving aid. Whether a student is on-line or on ground, classes are monitored for satisfactory progress at the close of each semester.
Graduate attendance is determined by the following measure:
Half Time 3 - 5 credit hours
Three Quarter Time 6 - 8 credit hours
Full Time 9 -11 credit hours
Full Time (fixed tuition charges) 12-> credit hours
Occupational, Physical & Speech Therapy Undergraduate Course work
Half Time 5 - 8 credit hours
Three Quarter Time 9 - 11 credit hours
Full Time 12 -18 credit hours
Students who fail to meet the credit hour minimum will be monitored to insure future progress. If six or more credits are not successfully completed, aid will be suspended. Students placed on financial aid suspension (loss of financial aid funding) may submit a written appeal within two weeks of notification to the Director of Financial Aid stating:
- The extenuating circumstances that affected their academic performance negatively
- An academic plan to correct the failure to progress satisfactorily
- Documentation supporting reasons for failure to make academic progress where appropriate
The Director of Financial Aid will refer the appeal to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee that will review the student request and statement of extenuating circumstances. The student will receive written confirmation of the Appeals Committee’s decision, which is final. Should aid continue, the student will be placed on Financial aid Probation with an academic program to follow encouraging progress but not setting the student up for failure. For example, if a student registers for and receives aid for half time attendance (3-5 hours), withdraws from a class and successfully completes the second class which is three hours, he or she would continue to receive uninterrupted on financial aid warning. Should a second class not be successfully completed, financial aid suspension would occur with the right of appeal. If the appeal is approved, financial aid probation will be instated.
Financial aid suspension ends the availability of aid until any hour shortfall is successfully completed and the progress toward the degree is back on track. If granted financial aid probation through appeal, aid is continued and the student is placed on an academic program designed to maximize the possibility of success.
