At the point that you graduate, leave the program, or take a leave of absence you must complete a loan exit counseling session and we must notify your lender of your last date of attendance. If you drop below half time or fully withdraw during the course of the semester, portions of your federal aid my need to be returned to the lender as required by Daoist Traditions policy and federal regulations. The following situations require Loan Exit Counseling:
- Graduation
- Leave of Absence
- Drop below half-time (below 11 credits of required courses)
- Withdrawal from the college (either official or unofficial)
- Academic dismissal
Loan exit counseling is a federal requirement and the college has the right to withhold transcripts and documents required for licensing or certification exams until we have proof that this requirement has been met.
