If a recipient fails to enroll or reduces enrollment, the school must refund the unused portion of the grant to the child care grant program. If the commissioner determines that a school has fraudulently handled grant money, the refund of the unused portion of the grant is immediately due to the office, and the office may institute a civil action for recovery if necessary. Refunds to the child care grant program are determined as follows:
calculate the percentage that the child care grant represents of the student's total financial aid package for the applicable term; excluding funds received from federal Title IV programs, United States Code, title 20, chapter 28, sections 1070 to 1099c-1;
calculate the total tuition refund amount using the refund calculation required of schools participating in federal Title IV programs, United States Code, title 20, chapter 28, sections 1070 to 1099C-1;
subtract the federal aid programs' refund amount from item B to determine the remaining tuition refund amount; and
multiply the percentage in item A by the amount calculated in item C to determine the amount to be refunded to the child care grant program.
Refunded money to the child care grant program is available for grants to eligible students.
