Disbursement of Funds

Provided students meet all qualifications to receive financial aid funds any scholarship, or grant awarded to them will be automatically credited to their expenses (tuition, fees, and books) and any other charges assessed by the institution. If financial aid credited to students’ expenses exceeds allowable charges due for the term, a check will be prepared for the difference. NOTE: If for any reason students register for courses late or enroll for insufficient credits, student’s aid will be delayed and possibly adjusted.

Other aid, such as BIA grants and some scholarships arrive in the form of checks. These funds will be made available after processing is completed in the Financial Aid office and distributed by the Business Office. If you have specific questions regarding charges, distribution of checks, or release processes, please contact the Business Office.
