毒品定罪和第四章援助

In accordance with federal regulations regarding the administration of Title IV funds, the Office of 金融援助 is required to notify every enrolled student of these consequences, even if the student is not currently pursuing federal aid.

A federal or state drug conviction can disqualify a student for Title IV funds. A conviction will only disqualify a student for funding if the offense occurred during a period of enrollment for which the student was receiving Title IV aid. Also, 被推翻的信念, set aside or removed from a student's record do not count, nor does any conviction received while the student was a juvenile, 除非他们被当作成年人来审判.

If you have been convicted of selling or possessing illegal drugs as previously described, 你不能获得第四章的资助. The chart below outlines the periods of ineligibility for Title IV funding, depending on whether the conviction was for sale or possession and whether the student had previous offenses.

转介诈骗个案

A school must refer to the Department's Office of Inspector General (OIG):

  • Any credible information indicating that an applicant for federal student aid 可能有欺诈行为 or other criminal misconduct in connection with their application.
  • Any credible information indicating that any employee, third-party servicer or other agent of the institution that acts in a capacity that involves the administration of the Title IV, HEA programs or the receipt of funds under those programs, 可能有欺诈行为, 误传, conversion or breach of fiduciary responsibility, or other illegal conduct involving the Title IV, HEA programs.

Common misconduct when applying for aid includes: false claims of independent student status, 虚假的公民身份声明, 使用虚假身份, 伪造签名或证明, 虚报收入. For these purposes, fraud is the intent to deceive as opposed to a mistake.

The UIW Office of 金融援助 will report suspected cases of fraud to the OIG as is required by 34 CFR 668.16.

Note: Not all cases filed with the OIG will generate an investigation, 由监察长进行审计或检查. Matters may be referred to another office within the U.S. 教育部 or to an external entity as appropriate.
