Overaward and Indebtedness
It is expected that every student will discharge any indebtedness to the college as quickly as possible. When at all possible, West Georgia Technical College (WGTC) will attempt to resolve the over-payment during the next term(s). If the over-payment is due to student error and cannot be resolved, WGTC must report the over-award to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Students who are in over-award status are ineligible for financial assistance at any post secondary college until the over-payment 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.
