Fall 2010 | SCHEDULE OF CLASSES
Return of Title IV
Funds
In addition to institutional policies and
procedures regarding refunds, students
receiving Title IV funds will be subject
to a separate calculation to determine the
return of any Title IV funds. The federal
formula provides a return of Title IV aid
if the student received federal financial
assistance in the form of a Pell Grant;
Supplemental Educational Opportunity
Grant; Federal Perkins Loan; Federal
Stafford or PLUS loan and withdrew on
or before completing 60 percent of the
semester. The percentage of the refund
is equal to the number of calendar days
remaining in the semester.
If any refund remains after the required
return of Title IV aid, the refund will be
used to repay UTEP funds, state funds,
other private sources and the student in
proportion to the amount paid by each
non-federal source, as long as there was
no unpaid balance; then all aid sources
will be repaid before any refund is paid
to the student.
Worksheets used to determine the
amount of refund or repayment are
available upon request. Example: Paydirt
Pete completely withdraws on the third
week of school (17th calendar day into
the semester). The number of calendar
days in the semester is 54. He had $500
in Federal Pell and was charged $438
in tuition and fees. Under the federal
Return of Title IV Aid policy, this student
would owe $20.98.

Fall 2010 | SCHEDULE OF CLASSES
DISCLAIMER
DISCLAIMER
This Schedule of Classes is a general information publication only. It is not intended to nor does it contain all regulations that relate to students. The provisions of
this Schedule of Classes do not constitute a contract, express or implied, between any applicant, student or faculty member and the University of Texas at El Paso
or the University of Texas System. The University of Texas at El Paso reserves the right to add or withdraw courses at any time, to change fees or tuition, calendar,
curriculum, degree requirements, graduation procedures, and any other requirements affecting students. Changes will become effective whenever the proper
authorities so determine and will apply to both prospective students and those already enrolled.
STATEMENT OF EQUAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY To the extent provided by applicable law, no person shall be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under, any program or activity sponsored or conducted by the University of Texas System or any of its component institutions, on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion,
sex, age, veteran status, or disability.
FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT
FERPA affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These rights are:
The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the University receives a request for access. Students should
submit to the Vice President for Finance and Administration written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. The Vice President for Finance and
Administration will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected.
The right to request the amendment of the student’s education records that the student believes is inaccurate or misleading. A student who believes that
his or her education records are inaccurate or misleading, or that the records violate his or her privacy rights, may informally discuss amendment of the record with
the university office or agency concerned with the particular record. If agreement is reached with respect to the student’s request, the appropriate records will be
amended. (Note: The substantive judgment of a faculty member about a student’s work, expressed in grades and/or evaluations, is not within the purview of this
right to seek amendment of education records.) If the record is not amended pursuant to the student’s request, the university will inform the student of its decision
and of the student’s right to request a formal hearing. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the
right to a hearing.
The right to consent to disclosures of the personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that
FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. One exception, which permits disclosure without consent, is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is defined as a person employed by the University in an administrative, supervisory, academic, or support staff position (including
law enforcement unit and health staff); a person or company with whom the University has contracted (such as an attorney, or collection agent); a person serving
on the Board of Trustees; or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs
to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, the University discloses education records without consent to
officials of another school in which a student seeks or intends to enroll or is enrolled.
The right to request that directory information not be disclosed to the public. “Directory Information” means information in a student’s education record that
would not generally be considered harmful or an invasion of privacy if disclosed. The University of Texas System component institutions policies will designate
the following minimum information as directory information: student’s name; local and permanent address; email address; telephone number; date and place of
birth; field of study; dates of attendance; enrollment status; student classification; degrees, certificates and awards (including scholarships) received; photographs;
participation in officially recognized activities and sports; weight and height of members of athletic teams; and the most recent previous educational agency or institution attended. Directory information may appear in public documents and may otherwise be disclosed without student consent unless a student submits a written
request to the registrar during the first 12 class days of a fall or spring semester or during the first 4 class days of a summer semester to withhold such information
from disclosure. Requests to withhold directory information will be honored by the University for only the current enrollment period; therefore, a request to withhold
Directory Information must be filed each semester or term in the Office of the Registrar.
The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the University to comply with the requirements of
FERPA. The name and address of the Office that administers FERPA is:
Family Policy Compliance Office
U.S. Department of Education
400 Maryland Avenue, S.W.
Washington, DC 20202-4605
