     FOR STUDENTS RECEIVING VA BENEFITS

 

If a student who is receiving an educational assistance allowance from the Department of Veterans Affairs fails to enter the course, withdraws, or is discontinued at any time prior to completion of the course, the amount charged for registration fee and tuition for the portion of the course completed shall not exceed the pro rata portion of the total charges for the course that the length of the completed portion of the course bears to its total length.

 

ACCOUNTS PAYABLE

 

All student accounts must be paid in full at the end of each semester.

 

Any student whose account is not paid in full at the end of the semester may not be allowed to enroll in the next semester.

 

Southland reserves the right to examine any delinquent account at mid-term with the possibility of asking the student, who has shown no responsibility in regard to his account, to leave school.

 

Southland is pledged to help those who do their best spiritually, scholastically, and financially.

 

Any resident student leaving before the close of the semester will be expected to take all his belongings from school housing immediately. Southland will not be responsible for items left in school housing after the student severs his status as a student. All items left in the dorm one month after the student leaves will be removed from the school housing.
