The amount of such repayment is to be determined on the basis of criteria set forth by the U.S. Secretary of Education.
I affirm that to the best of my knowledge, I do not owe a repayment on a Federal Pell Grant, a Federal supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, or a Federal State Student Incentive Grant previously received for study at any institution. To the best of my knowledge, I am not in default on a Federal Perkins/National Direct Student Loan, Federal Stafford Student Loan, Federal Supplemental Loan for Students or a Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students.
My signature below gives Suffolk University permission to use financial aid to cover all educational expenses associated with my enrollment. I give Suffolk University permission to utilize financial aid funds to cover the cost of any state mandated health insurance plan costs, unless I opt out of the program and use my own plan.
