STUDENTS CONVICTED OF POSSESSION OR SALE OF DRUGS (Source: pp. 1-14 and 1-15, Federal Student Aid Handbook, 2015-2016)

A federal or state drug conviction (but not a local or municipal conviction) can disqualify a student for

Federal Student Aid (FSA) funds.

Convictions only count against a student for aid eligibility purposes (FAFSA question 23c) if they were

for an offense that occurred during a period of enrollment for which the student was receiving Federal

Student Aid—they do not count if the offense was not during such a period, unless the student was denied

federal benefits for drug trafficking by a federal or state judge. Also, a conviction that was reversed, set

aside, or removed from the student’s record does not count, nor does one received when she was a

juvenile, unless she was tried as an adult.

The chart below illustrates the period of ineligibility for FSA funds, depending on whether the conviction

was for sale or possession and whether the student had previous offenses. (A conviction for sale of drugs

includes convictions for conspiring to sell drugs.)

Possession of illegal drugs

Sale of illegal drugs

1st offense 1 year from date of conviction 2 years from date of conviction

2nd offense 2 years from date of conviction Indefinite period

3+ offenses Indefinite period

If the student was convicted of both possessing and selling illegal drugs, and the periods of

ineligibility are different, the student will be ineligible for the longer period.

A student regains eligibility the day after the period of ineligibility ends (i.e., for a 1st or 2nd

offense); or when he or she successfully completes a qualified drug rehabilitation program that includes

passing two unannounced drug tests given by such a program. Further drug convictions will make him

ineligible again.

Students denied eligibility for an indefinite period can regain eligibility after completing any of the

following 3 options:

1) Successfully completing a rehabilitation program, as described below, which includes passing two

unannounced drug tests from such a program);

2) Having the conviction reversed, set aside, or removed from the student’s record so that fewer than

two convictions for sale or three convictions for possession remain on the record; or

3) Successfully completing two unannounced drug tests which are part of a rehab program (the

student does not need to complete the rest of the program).

STUDENTS CONVICTED OF POSSESSION OR SALE OF DRUGS (Source: pp. 1-14 and 1-15, Federal Student Aid Handbook, 2015-2016)

In such cases, the nature and dates of the remaining convictions will determine when the student

regains eligibility. It is the student’s responsibility to certify to Indiana Wesleyan University that she has

successfully completed the rehabilitation program.

When a student regains eligibility during the award year, Indiana Wesleyan University will evaluate

the student’s eligibility and if eligible, award Pell grant, TEACH, and Campus-based aid for the current

payment period and Direct Loans for the period of enrollment.

Standards for a qualified drug rehabilitation program A qualified drug rehabilitation program must include at least two unannounced drug tests and satisfy

at least one of the following requirements:

• Be qualified to receive funds directly or indirectly from a federal, state, or local government program.

• Be qualified to receive payment directly or indirectly from a federally-or state-licensed insurance

company.

• Be administered or recognized by a federal, state, or local government agency or court.

• Be administered or recognized by a federally- or state-licensed hospital, health clinic, or medical

doctor.

If a student certifies that he has successfully completed a drug rehabilitation program, but Indiana

Wesleyan University has reason to believe that the program does not meet the requirements, Indiana

Wesleyan University will verify if it does before paying a student any FSA funds.

How Your Loan Options Are Determined

The lenders and loan options presented in FASTChoice were selected for the excellent terms and benefits they

provide to borrowers. Our institution has worked with these lenders in the past, and previous borrowers had

positive experiences working with them.

To determine which lenders and loan options to present, we use strict criteria based on your interests and not

those of our institution. We recognize only those lenders who provide you with exceptional customer service,

excellent incentives (e.g., low interest rates, no origination fees, and loan principal reductions), timely

processing, and electronic funds transfer capabilities when possible.

All of the information provided on the Loan Options page is reviewed annually to ensure that the benefits that

the lenders offer continue to adhere to our criteria. Any loan options that no longer adhere to our criteria are

removed, and new loan options are added. At least two lenders will be presented to you at all times.

You are free to select any lender you choose, including those not presented. If you choose a lender that is

not presented, please contact that lender for instructions to complete the application process. Application

processing will not be delayed unnecessarily if you choose a lender not presented.

Our officials are prohibited from accepting any financial or other benefits in exchange for displaying lenders

and loan options in FASTChoice. Prohibited activities include: receiving compensation to serve on any lender

board of directors or advisory boards; accepting gifts including trips, meals, and entertainment; allowing lenders

to staff our institution's financial aid office; allowing lenders to place our institution's name or logo on any of

their products; and owning of lenders' stock (for college officials who make financial decisions for our

institution).

Here are loan options for you to explore.

Private Loan Options for Indiana Wesleyan University

Keep in mind that you may qualify for Federal education loans. For additional information contact your school's

financial aid office or the Department of Education. The terms and conditions of Federal education loans may

be more favorable than the provisions of private education loans.

The inclusion of a loan product or lender on this site does not imply endorsement. We do not endorse any loan

products or lenders. Note that information is provided by the lender and is subject to change. We are not

responsible for the content lenders provide or the content of lender websites. Contact lenders directly to

confirm details if needed.

Understand your interest rate options

Wells Fargo offers you the choice of variable and fixed interest rates. Each option has unique advantages to consider before choosing your rate.

How are they different?

Variable interest rates

Generally provide a lower initial rate than fixed rates The interest rate may increase or decrease over the life of the loan Monthly payments may increase or decrease over the life of the loan

• • •

• • •

Fixed interest rates

The interest rate remains the same over the life of the loan Allow you to better predict how much total interest you’ll pay on your loan Monthly payments will remain the same over the life of the loan

Included are two Application Disclosures; one for the variable interest rate and one for the fixed interest rate. The Application Disclosures will help you understand the terms of the loan program and the cost of taking the loan.

Please review the pages carefully before choosing your interest rate.

SECTION 5: DEFINITIONS Cost of attendance is an estimate of tuition and fees, room and board, transportation, and other costs for the period of enrollment covered by the loan, as determined by the school. A student’s cost of attendance may be obtained from the school’s financial aid office. Estimated financial assistance is all federal, state, institutional (school), private, and other sources of assistance used in determining eligibility for most Title IV student financial aid, including amounts of financial assistance used to replace the expected family contribution. The student’s estimated financial assistance is determined by the school and may be obtained from the school’s financial aid office. A lender is a private education lender as defined in Section 140 of the Truth in Lending Act and any other person engaged in the business of securing, making, or extending private education loans on behalf of the lender. A period of enrollment is the academic year, academic term (such as semester, trimester, or quarter), or the number of weeks of instructional time for which the applicant is requesting the loan. A private education loan is a loan provided by a private education lender that is not a Title IV loan and that is issued expressly for postsecondary education expenses, regardless of whether the loan is provided through the school that the student attends or directly to the borrower from the private education lender. A private education loan does not include (1) An extension of credit under an open-end consumer credit plan, a reverse mortgage transaction, a residential mortgage transaction, or any other loan that is secured by real property or a dwelling; or (2) An extension of credit in which the school is the lender if the term of the extension of credit is 90 days or less or an interest rate will not be applied to the credit balance and the term of the extension of credit is one year or less, even if the credit is payable in more than four installments. Title IV student financial aid includes the Federal Pell Grant Program, the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) Program, the Federal Work-Study (FWS) Program, the William D.
