Refund Checks
Overpayments, charge adjustments or excess financial aid may result in a credit balance on your account.
Excess financial aid is distributed within 14 days after the start of classes. Subsequent refunds are processed each week as financial aid is applied.
If you would like your refund check to be applied to a future semester’s charges, please notify the Accounting Office in writing.
The College does not provide advances on financial aid refunds. If a student’s financial aid award includes funds for books and the student is entitled to a refund, the earliest that a refund can be obtained is when the initial refunds are distributed within 14 days after the start of classes. Therefore, students need to plan accordingly.
All students should prepare to arrive on campus at the start of each semester with funds to purchase books and supplies. Advances on financial aid refunds will not be available.
