If your student secures a campus job, or is 
expecng to receive a refund, they can have their 
refund directly deposited into their checking 
account. All student payments, whether it be 
payroll or refunds, are disbursed through the 
Student Disbursement Center. Reasons for a 
refund may include:  
  Overpayment on loans or grants aer all 
university charges have been paid  
  Dropping a class (before August 24th)  
  Resigning from the University before 
September 7, 2018 
  Payment for an on-campus job  
It is important to note that refunds will only be 
made through the original method of payment and

is the suggested method of refund, as it is the 
fastest and safest way to collect funds. Refunds by 
check are also possible, however it will take 
roughly 3-5 business days longer to receive. If a 
check is lost in the mail, the student will have to 
wait 30 days before a replacement check can be 
issued.
