While we don’t like to see any of our students leave, we do understand that there is life outside of Southeastern and that our students are faced with difficult decisions about the future.

Your Academic Department
Prior to resigning from Southeastern, students are encouraged to speak with their professors and/or their academic advisor to be sure it is the best option for their future academic progress.
Office of Financial Aid – [email protected] | (985) 549-2244 Students attending Southeastern Louisiana University who are receiving federal Title IV financial aid (e.g., Direct Subsidized Loans, Direct Unsubsidized Loans, Pell Grant, or SEOG) are required to return the portion of unearned federal aid if they withdraw, do not register, or otherwise fail to complete the period of enrollment for which the Title IV aid was provided. Once a student has completed 60% or more of the semester, the student is considered to have earned all Title IV funds that were provided. In this instance, no funds would be returned.
Additionally, for students receiving institutional or state scholarships (i.e. TOPS, LA Go Grant), a reduction or cancellation of these awards may be required depending on the date of course withdrawal or University resignation.
Controller’s Office – [email protected] | (985) 549-2068 Students who withdraw from Southeastern Louisiana University are responsible for payment of all outstanding charges on the student account. If an outstanding balance is created as a result of a return of financial aid funds, the student is responsible for paying those charges, as well as any pre-existing outstanding charges. Students will not be able to re-enroll at Southeastern or request an official transcript if any balance remains on the account.
University Housing – [email protected] | (985) 549-2118 Students who have withdrawn from the university are not permitted to live in University Housing, and should notify the University Housing office immediately.

Your request will route to the appropriate offices, and you will be notified in Workday when the resignation is complete.
