Financial Aid checks are disbursed twice during each fall and spring semester by the Cashiers Office and once during the summer semester. To receive a disbursement refund, students must have a credit balance at the time of disbursement and have completed all required verification documentation, student loan processing documentation and have a finalized financial aid award.
Funds cannot be disbursed if the student is missing necessary documentation. Students are also required to have an “official” high school or high school equivalency transcript sent to the admissions office, which will be verified through the financial aid office, to finalize eligibility for financial aid.
Student’s that do not provide required documentation prior to the standard disbursement schedule, will have a modified disbursement schedule based upon completion of necessary documentation and verification.
