Student Refunds

Refunds are a result of credit transactions or adjustments to student accounts and may result from financial aid proceeds, changes in registration, changes in housing/meal plans, or various other transactions resulting in a credit balance on the student account. More information about refunds.

Although the method of disbursement is your choice, we strongly recommend using direct deposit (EFT). It is the best way to get your money quickly.

Direct Deposit

Student Financial Services now offers direct deposit as a more convenient means of providing refunds to students.

The advantages of direct deposit are:

  • Convenience - no waiting on the mail or waiting in line to receive, cash or deposit checks.
  • Quick access - the funds are available within 2-3 business days after the credit transactions have been processed.
  • Safety - prevents loss or theft of check

Once you have signed up for direct deposit, any future credit balance will automatically be deposited into your bank account until graduation or withdrawal.

If you do not elect to have direct deposit, your check will be mailed to your permanent home address. It is your responsibility to keep your address current with the University's Office of Records and Registration. You can view and/or update your address information via Wingspan.

Please visit the Direct Deposit FAQ section for more detail.
