Disbursement of Funds
Provided you meet all qualifications to receive financial aid funds, any scholarship or grant awarded to you will be automatically credited to your expenses (tuition, fees and books) and any other charges assessed by the institution. If financial aid credited to your expenses exceeds allowable charges due for the term, a check will be prepared for the difference, and the student will receive the check no later than 14 days after the credit balance was created. NOTE: If for any reason you register for classes late or enroll for insufficient credits, your 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 will be distributed by the Business Office. If you have specific questions regarding charges, distribution of checks or release processes, please contact the Business Office.
