Welcome to AMU Financial Aid
AMU Financial Aid department was designed for student’s interest in Federal Student Aid. It is dedicated to help each student and family to create a strategy that works for them. Our Financial Aid professionals will make every effort to help students to satisfy all deadlines and eligibility requirements and meet the full demonstrated financial need.

Students who are interested in applying federal aid should complete FAFSA at studentaid.gov for the enrolled award year and add Alhambra Medical University (AMU) School Code 04243100 to FAFSA.

Return to Title IV Policy
Return to Title IV Funds (R2T4) Policy is fully compliant with all the policies, procedures, and guidelines from the US Department of Education and the related Federal laws and regulations, including regulations of the Federal Student Financial Aid programs, under Title IV of the Federal Higher Education Act of 1965.
​
Federal Student Aid (Title IV funds) are offered to a student under the assumption the student will attend school for the entire period for which the assistance is offered. When a student’s enrollment drops, the student may no longer be eligible for the full amount of Title IV funds they were originally scheduled to or did receive. The student has to return the unused portion of the funds.
If a recipient of Title IV funds withdraws after beginning attendance, the amount of Title IV funds earned by the student must be determined. If the amount disbursed to the student is greater than the amount the student earned, unearned funds must be returned to the Federal government.
​
When a recipient of Title IV funds withdraws from an institution during a payment period of enrollment, the school must determine the amount of Federal Student Aid funds the student earned based on the student's Last Date of Attendance (LDA). By subtracting the amount of funds the school is entitled to retain from the total amount of funds the school received, the school will determine the amount of funding to be returned to the Department of Education (Return to Title IV) and the amount of funds to be retained by the school.
​
The returning of Title IV Funds is performed and must be completed within thirty (30) days from the student‘s Last Day of Attendance (LDA), or within forty-five (45) days from the Date of Determination (DOD) of the student’s withdrawal.
