<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Financial Aid Applicant:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The start of the 17-18 academic year is quickly coming up and federal and state financial aid will begin to be released to Student Accounts to apply to student bills.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Financial aid will cover only those classes that are part of the degree program you are admitted to at A&M-Commerce and are actively pursuing.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have registered for classes without first discussing with your academic advisor or academic department, check with them to make sure the classes you are registered in fall are part of your degree plan.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">An audit program will be in place to monitor this Department of Education financial aid requirement.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have registered in course(s) that are not applicable to your degree, for whatever reason, you have time now to make changes with your academic advisor.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Financial aid will be cancelled accordingly for any and all courses that you are registered in but which are not part of your degree plan.
