Overaward and Indebtedness
It is expected that every student will discharge any indebtedness to the college as quickly as possible. When at all possible, WGTC will attempt to resolve the overpayment during the next term(s). If the overpayment is due to student error and cannot be resolved, WGTC must report the overaward to the National Student Loan Data System. Students who are in overaward status are ineligible for financial assistance at any postsecondary college until the overpayment is resolved and will be prohibited from attending classes. Students are required to repay the over payment received even if it was due to school error. Most awarding errors are due to the dropping of courses, non-attendance or inaccurate information on the financial aid application.
