Financial Aid
Electronically Processed Financial Aid:
All approved financial aid is processed through the Bursar's Office.
Electronic financial aid payments are processed twice weekly. Funds
received are applied to the Student Bill, and any overpayment is
refunded to the student. Student Bill balances must be paid in full
before a refund can be issued.
Sign up for Direct Deposit of Financial Aid Refunds.
Direct Deposit of financial aid refunds to a bank account of your choice
is available for students.
For those students who have not signed up for direct deposit of their
financial aid refunds, paper refund checks will be mailed to the
student’s local address.
Students are responsible for keeping address information current. To
request an address change, contact the Registration & Records Office, or
Change Your Address here.
Manually Processed Financial Aid (Paper Checks):
If the Bursar's Office receives a paper loan check or
scholarship check made payable directly to the student, a notice is
sent by mail instructing the student to report to the Bursar's Office.
Funds will then be applied to the student's University account. Student
Bill balances must be paid in full before a refund can be issued.
