After the third day of the term, a student will not receive a tuition refund. Students receiving Title IV funds (PELL, FSEOG, Loans) may or may not receive a Title IV refund.
• Refunds for Title IV recipients are calculated as follows: Number of Days Completed divided by Number of Days in Semester =Percentage of Title IV Aid Earned.
• * 100% if greater than 60%– If funds are remaining after tuition and fees are deducted from Earned Title IV Funds, a refund for the remainder will be issued by the Business Office prior to the end of the term.
• * All questions relating to refunds should be directed to the Office of Student Accounts at: cashier@atlantatech.edu

• Students with a credit on their account after all tuition, fees, and books have been paid will receive a refund of their credit balance. Should a Pell recipient withdraw from all classes before the 60% time frame, he or she will be required to pay back funds they have not earned. All refunds are issued by the ATC Business Office. All refunds are processed through the BankMobile Disbursement Process.

• All questions relating to refunds should be directed to the Office of Student Accounts at: cashier@atlantatech.edu

• Fees are 100% refundable when a class is canceled by the college.
• Students withdrawing from a course by the end of the third instructional day of the semester and no shows shall receive a 100% refund of applicable tuition (hours below the 15-hour tuition cap) and applicable refundable fees, excluding the application fee.
• Students who withdraw from a course after the third instructional day of the semester shall receive no refund.
• For those students receiving federal financial aid, the technical colleges shall make available Consumer Information that may be found at ifap.ed.gov https://fsapartners.ed.gov/home/  under the appropriate aid year’s handbook. Although there will be no refund of tuition and fees after the third instructional day, withdrawing students receiving Federal Pell Grant will have awards adjusted in compliance with the Return to Title IV process (R2T4) outlined in the Federal Student Aid Handbook.
• The Business Office process refunds.

Students whose Financial Aid awards exceed the direct cost of tuition and fees will receive a refund. Refunds are processed by the ATC Business Office each term. For additional information regarding refunds, students should contact the ATC Business Office.

Financial Aid award notifications are sent to ATC students who have completed Financial Aid file, are enrolled, and have maintained Satisfactory Academic Progress. Financial Aid awards are made on a first-come, first-served basis.

Eligible aid applicants will receive reimbursement later in the semester. The Financial Aid Office will disburse Financial Aid payments to the student accounts of eligible students. Any remaining balance is the responsibility of the student to pay before the first day of the semester or the payment due date. Excess Financial Aid will be refunded to you within 14 days by the Business Office.

The federal government requires colleges to monitor the enrollment activity of each federal Financial Aid recipient. A return to title IV funds process (R2T4) must be performed on students who totally withdraw from class prior to the 60% point of each term. This process identifies the percentage of funding that the student earned, which often results in a reduction in the student’s award for the term currently withdrawn. Therefore, based on the last date of attendance, students may be required to repay a percentage of funds received.

The Technical College System of Georgia defines the state refund policy that must be followed by ATC. Should the student alter his/her enrollment status during the first three days of the term, the student’s tuition and fee charges are revised accordingly. Should changes occur after the first three days of the term, there will be no reduction (refund) of tuition and fee charges.

Occasionally, a student may receive federal or state funding in error. This may occur due to technical difficulties, human error, incorrect data provided by the student, etc. Please note that federal and state funds received in error, regardless of the reason, must be repaid by the student.

Students who want to have their tuition and fees paid by a third-party source, such as an employer or organization, must participate in the college’s third-party billing process.  Company or organization authorizing to pay for all or a part of a student’s tuition and fees, they must agree to enter into a Third-Party billing arrangement with the college by providing a Billing Authorization.  The authorization must meet certain requirements in order to be accepted and a Third-party billing arrangement approved.      

The sponsoring organization and/or Student are responsible for submitting an authorization or voucher on the organization’s letterhead the Business Office or complete the attached forms below.

Authorizations must be written in English and contain no restrictions or contingencies (For example, if the sponsor requires course completion, grades or transcripts prior to payment, the transaction does NOT qualify as Third-Party Billing). Each authorization will be valid for one semester unless otherwise specified. The authorization MUST include the following:

• Student’s name
• Students account number (Organizations should obtain this number from the student.  The College’s student id numbers begin with 900)
• The authorization must clearly outline each type of fees and charges the company will be responsible for paying, such as Tuition, Mandatory Fees, Late Fees, Campus Supply Fees, Graduation Fees, etc.
• It must be signed by an official authorized to obligate payment by the organization.
• The information provided must include the name of the contact person, billing address, email address and telephone number from the organization.  Please provide a secondary contact if applicable.
• For initial set up, a W-9 of the entity covering the balance is required for billing purposes.

Authorizations should be submitted so that they are received at least one week prior to the fee payment deadlines each semester.  For a list of the payment deadlines, visit the Academic Calendar. Please note:  The College is unable to guarantee the student’s courses will be secured if authorizations arrive after the above-mentioned timeframe.  Upon receipt of a valid billing authorization, our office will apply an authorization to your student account while we await payment from your Third-Party sponsor. Each Sponsor will receive an invoice requesting payment for the student(s) after the add/drop period for that semester.

Please note: Students whose sponsor fails to pay the authorized charges will be responsible for the unpaid charges. A financial hold will be placed on the student’s account until the balance is paid in full. Students are encouraged to remain in contact with their sponsor until the terms of the billing authorization have been met.
