If you have had a legal name change for whatever reason, your name can be updated with Herzing University when you provide the financial aid department with a copy of your updated social security card.

For security purposes, please do not send your social security card to your financial aid advisor without discussing it with them first. We will add a needed document to your financial aid portal for secure upload.

To request a review for transfer credits, students should submit their unofficial transcripts to their admissions team at the time of enrollment.

Identified transfer credits can only officially be conferred and be posted to a student's account once we receive the official transcripts.

To receive federal student loans when enrolled in an undergraduate degree you must have 6 or more credits scheduled in a semester.

Yes, your SAP status does affect your FA. If you are on Academic Warning you are ineligible to receive Financial Aid without an appeal.

When you are placed in the Academic Warning status, your financial aid will be canceled for future semesters and will not be reinstated until you have successfully appealed to remain in the program.

Please keep an eye on your Herzing Email for the steps needed to appeal your SAP status.

Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) standards ensure that you are successfully completing your coursework and can continue to receive financial aid. All students receiving financial aid are required to meet SAP standards.

Federal regulations require the University to establish, publish, and apply standards to monitor your progress toward completing your degree program. If you fail to meet the SAP standards, you will be placed on financial aid warning or suspension.

When you withdraw from the school or a class, there is a possibility of there being a balance owed to the school. If this happens you will be sent a notification and a payment plan to cover the balance.

If you wish to return to Herzing after withdrawing, your financial aid advisor will work out the options for covering the balance with you.

If you need to leave school (withdraw) because life happens, we understand that. If this happens to you, we will perform what is called a Federal Return to Title IV Calculation. This calculation takes the number of days you have sat in courses and adjusts your tuition and aid according to the Federal and State rules we are required to follow.

Sometimes it may leave a balance on a student's account. If this happens, we will work with you on a financial plan.

If you need to take a break from the University, tuition and fee adjustments happen in a similar way to withdrawing from the school. One big difference is that you will come back on a date that is pre-determined with your Student Services Advisor.

If the break happens at the end of the semester, there is no proration of tuition and fees. However, if you need to take the break after the semester starts, we will take the number of days you have attended the classes and apply the tuition and fees based on the number of days, not the whole semester.

Yes, anytime you have to retake a course you will be responsible for paying for the retake as well as the original course. Your financial aid package will be adjusted once your schedule has been updated.

When you fail a class, your student services advisor will reschedule that course for you. Once this schedule change is completed, your financial aid advisor will review the changes and make any necessary adjustments to your financial aid package. The student is responsible for paying for the failed class as well as the retake.

Rescheduling the course may result in a tuition change and lengthening your time before graduation.

Adding or removing classes from your schedule can change your tuition cost.

If you add a course to your schedule, your tuition for that semester will go up based on the individual cost per credit.

If you drop a course before you start attending it, the tuition cost will adjust down based on the individual cost per credit. If you drop a course after you start attending, the full cost of the course will remain on your account.
