联邦或州的毒品犯罪可以取消学生获得联邦财政援助的资格. Under Section 485 and 484r of the Higher Education Act, 学生在任何入学期间因持有或销售非法毒品而被定罪,将没有资格获得联邦学生援助.
目前入学并正在完成联邦学生援助免费申请(FAFSA)的学生将被问到:“您是否因在接受联邦学生援助期间因持有或销售非法毒品而被定罪??”
If you answer “Yes,你将被问及一系列额外的问题,以确定定罪是否会影响你获得联邦学生资助的资格.
如果你在接受联邦学生资助期间因出售或持有非法毒品而被联邦或州定罪, 你仍然应该填写并提交FAFSA,以确定你是否仍然有资格获得援助. If you leave this question blank, 在你对你的FAFSA做出更正之前,你不能获得联邦财政援助.
被判拥有或销售非法毒品的学生在联邦法律规定的一段时间内失去第四章的资格. 丧失资格的期限视乎被定罪者是否因管有或出售(包括串谋出售)非法毒品而被定罪.
涉及管有的定罪,丧失资格的期限如下:
- One conviction: one year after the date of conviction.
- 两次定罪:自第二次定罪之日起两年.
- 三次以上定罪:自第三次定罪之日起无限期
涉及买卖的定罪,丧失资格的期限如下:
- One conviction: two years after the date of conviction.
- 两次或两次以上定罪:自第二次定罪之日起无限期.
联邦或州的毒品犯罪可以取消学生获得联邦财政援助的资格.
定罪只有在你接受第四章援助的入学期间发生的犯罪才算数,如果不是在这个期间发生的犯罪不算数. Also, a conviction that was reversed, set aside, or removed from the your record does not count, nor does one received when you were a juvenile, unless the student was tried as an adult.
Regaining Eligibility
在不合格期结束后的第二天或当您成功完成合格的药物康复计划时,您将重新获得资格. Further drug convictions will make you ineligible again.
If your Title IV eligibility has been suspended indefinitely, 只有成功完成戒毒康复计划,你才能重新获得资格. If you are under a one- or two-year penalty, 您可以通过成功完成戒毒康复计划,在不合格期限届满之前重新获得资格. 如果你成功完成了批准的戒毒计划, 在您成功完成课程之日,您将重新获得资格. 你有责任向学校证明你已经成功完成了康复计划.
In order for you to qualify for eligibility, 戒毒康复计划必须包括至少两次未经通知的药检, and:
- 已经接受或有资格直接或间接接受联邦政府的资金, State, or local government program; or
- be administered or recognized by a Federal, State, or local government agency or court; or
