Part I, Line 2:International students. These students are awarded various noncash discounts in the form of tuition scholarships. They do not receive refunds from their account, nor do they receive awards that exceed their charges. The majority of these fall into the following categories: Partnering programs - These students pay a portion (about 1/3) of the cost. Then receive discounts/scholarships for the rest. About half of these scholarships are funded by partnering organizations or donors, the other half are funded from the budget. We work closely with the partnering organizations to select qualifying students. Teach All Nations and Vision Scholars - These students have been selected as outstanding international students to receive up to 100% tuition discounts/scholarships. These students typically only pay the fees (some pay a portion of tuition). The majority of these awards are funded by restricted gifts. Our ultimate goal over the next 20 years is to have one scholarship recipient from every country in the world. Standard Institutional Aid - International students who enroll through our traditional programs qualify for many of the same awards that other students receive. These are mostly funded from our budget. Many of these students come to the U.S. on a student Visa and attend classes on the main campus.

ExplanationCAROLINA UNIVERSITY EVALUATES ELIGIBILITY BY RECEIVING WRITTEN REPRESENTATIONS AND FROM REVIEW OF A STUDENTS FILE. ITEMS TO BE CHECKED INCLUDE CU'S APPLICATION, HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA, DROP/ADD FORMS, AND WITHDRAWAL FORMS. ONCE A STUDENT HAS COMPLETED THE FREE APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL STUDENT AID (FAFSA) APPLICATION, CU SUBMITS IT ELECTRONICALLY TO ED. ONCE IT IS PROCESSED THE STUDENT WILL RECEIVE A STUDENT AID REPORT AND THE SCHOOL WILL RECEIVE AN ISIR. THE ISIR IS KEPT IN THE STUDENTS FINANCIAL AID FILE. THE ISIR CONTAINS THE EFC AMOUNT, WHICH IS THE AMOUNT THE STUDENT IS EXPECTED TO PAY. THE COST OF ATTENDANCE IS FOUND ON WORKSHEETS GENERATED BY WEBER. THE EFC AND COA ARE BOTH USED TO CALCULATE FINANCIAL NEED. THE ISIR ALSO PROVIDES FINANCIAL AID HISTORY, MATCHES SOCIAL SECURITY DATA, SELECTIVE SERVICE DATA AND CHECKS CITIZENSHIP. FFEL - CHECKS FROM LOAN INSTITUTIONS ARE REQUESTED FROM STUDENTS THROUGH LOAN APPLICATIONS. LOAN APPLICATIONS ARE CERTIFIED BY CU AND SENT BY STUDENT FINANCIAL AID OFFICE. MONEY IS DEPOSITED INTO A SEPARATE BANK ACCOUNT USING ACH/EFT SYSTEM. ONCE CU RECEIVES THE DISBURSEMENT RECORD FROM THE LENDER, THE FINANCIAL AID OFFICE BATCHES THE LOANS AND SENDS THEM TO THE BUSINESS OFFICE. THE BUSINESS OFFICE VERIFIES FUNDS AND THEN CREDITS THE STUDENTS ACCOUNT. SOMETIMES CHECKS ARE SENT IN THE STUDENT'S AND CU'S NAME. THESE ARE DEPOSITED SEPARATELY INTO THE BANK ACCOUNT BY THE BUSINESS OFFICE. CHECKS ARE SIGNED BY THE STUDENT, AND CU POSTS CHECKS TO THE STUDENT'S ACCOUNT. LOANS COME IN TWO DISBURSEMENTS - GENERALLY ONE FOR FIRST SEMESTER AND ONE FOR SECOND. THE WHOLE DISBURSEMENT IS APPLIED TO THE STUDENTS ACCOUNT. COST OF ATTENDANCE IS ALWAYS GREATER THAN LOAN PROCEEDS AND ALL OTHER FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. ANY EXCESS CAN BE WITHDRAWN BY THE STUDENT FOR LIVING EXPENSES. PELL, SEOG & FWS - CU IS GIVEN AN INITIAL AUTHORIZATION FOR FUNDS BY THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION FOR WHICH IT CANNOT EXCEED. CU CALLS DOWN THE FUNDS THROUGH GAPS AND THE MONEY IS ELECTRONICALLY DEPOSITED INTO A SEPARATE FEDERAL FUNDS ACCOUNT AT LEXINGTON STATE BANK, THEN THEY ARE SWEPT INTO AN INVESTMENT ACCOUNT EACH NIGHT BY THE BANK. THE FUNDS ARE ONLY REQUESTED AFTER DISBURSEMENT TO STUDENTS ACCOUNT. PER FWS, FUNDS ARE PAID TO THE STUDENTS THROUGH CU PAYROLL AS EARNEDExplanationTxt
