Refunds Due to Financial Aid or Other Overpayment
Refunds will be issued once all financial aid is posted to student accounts. Financial aid is typically posted to student accounts after the third week of class. Note: financial aid will not be estimated and refunded prior to posting. Refunds are issued by check. Refund checks are typically ready for pickup after 1PM on Fridays. Student refund checks will be held at the Business Office for pick up until the following Friday morning. Checks not picked up will be mailed to the home address on file.
If you prefer that we mail your check instead of holding it in the Business Office you will need to complete a Credit Balance Form each academic year.
Credit balances resulting from Parent Plus loans will be refunded to the borrower and mailed to the borrower’s address unless instructed otherwise in writing by the parent.
