For a student to be considered officially withdrawn, they must process the appropriate forms within the Office of Academic Records and Registration.

Return of Title IV Funds (Federal Aid)
The federal government requires SRU to return Financial Aid (Title IV) money to the Title IV programs for any student withdrawing through 60% of the session. Students withdrawing Title IV aid may owe the university a balance once the aid is returned. Title IV aid must be returned to the Title IV program before any refund can be returned to a student.
