Resignation Procedure
Your education is extremely important to us here at Southeastern. While we don’t like to see any of our students leave, we do understand that there is life outside of Southeastern and that our students are faced with difficult decisions about the future.

Your Academic Department
Prior to resigning from Southeastern, students are encouraged to speak with their
professors and/or their academic advisor to be sure it is the best option for their
future academic progress.
Office of Financial Aid – finaid@southeastern.edu | (985) 549-2244
Students attending Southeastern Louisiana University who are receiving federal Title
IV financial aid (e.g., Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct Unsubsidized Loans, Pell Grant,
or SEOG) are required to return the portion of unearned federal aid if they withdraw,
do not register, or otherwise fail to complete the period of enrollment for which
the Title IV aid was provided. Once a student has completed 60% or more of the semester,
the student is considered to have earned all Title IV funds that were provided. In
this instance, no funds would be returned.
Additionally, for students receiving institutional or state scholarships (i.e. TOPS,
LA Go Grant), a reduction or cancellation of these awards may be required depending
on the date of course withdrawal or University resignation.

remains on the account.
