REMINDER: SOME REGISTRATION ISSUES TO BE AWARE OF FOR SUMMER TERM

• 1. As a result of federal regulations governing aid eligibility in modular terms (i.e., summer mini-sessions), it is possible to receive a passing grade in one summer course, withdraw or fail another, and have part of your financial aid immediately retracted. This is just one of many scenarios.
  2. As a result of these regulations, ALL students who apply for summer aid will have a REGISTRATION HOLD placed on their account IMMEDIATELY after you submit your JMU 2024 Summer School Financial Aid Application. You will NOT be able to adjust your summer school registration without first consulting the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships. This hold will NOT impact your ability to register for the fall term. It ONLY affects your ability to make changes to your summer registration.
  3. This hold is being placed in order to protect you, as it necessitates a discussion with the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships prior to changing your registration. This provides our office the opportunity to advise you of how the potential changes can impact your aid so you are not surprised with a bill later in the summer if/when aid is reduced.
  4. Only Financial Aid Eligible classes count towards your Financial Aid enrollment (Full Time, 3/4 Time, Half Time or Less than Half Time).
  5. For these reasons, please make sure your registration is FINAL prior to submitting your JMU 2024 Summer School Financial Aid Application. Otherwise, you WILL experience delays in being able to adjust your schedule.
