  3. A Brief History of R2T4 • Simply stated: If a recipient of Title IV aid withdraws during a payment period or a period of enrollment, the institution must calculate the amount of Title IV aid the student earned.  Unearned Title IV funds must be returned to the Title IV programs.

  4. A Brief History of R2T4 • Prior to 1999/2000 called “Refunds and Repayments” (refund of unearned institutional charges) • Effective July 1, 2000, the 1998 Reauthorization of the HEA and Negotiated Rule Making changed this regulation to “the Treatment of Title IV, HEA program funds when a student withdraws from an institution”, AKA “Return to Title IV Funds”

  5. A Brief History of R2T4 • R2T4 PC Software became available on April 25, 2000 • R2T4 on the Web was released on September 14, 2004 • R2T4 on the Web with HERA updates became available on August 7, 2006
