As a recipient of federal Title IV student aid, you have options regarding the application of your aid to your student account.

You are encouraged to complete the Title IV Authorization process to allocate any remaining Title IV funds towards eligible charges for both the current and\/or previous academic terms. This authorization is accessible via the “Tasks” tile in your LOUIE Student Center. Once completed, Title IV funds can cover eligible current term expenses and up to $200 of prior term year charges.<\/p>\n
