Refunds/Overpayments

The Cashier’s office has automated the process of issuing refund checks. All credit balances generated by financial aid will be automatically issued and mailed to your preferred address in the Registrar’s system, so please make sure that your address is correct with the office of the Registrar’s to ensure that you receive your checks.
To simplify the disbursement of your funds, we have now made direct deposit available!!! If you wish to participate in direct deposit, please go to Web-Advisor:

• Log into your student account
• On the left of the page that will then appear, scroll to the bottom. Under the heading “Financial Information” please select the very last link: “Bank Information”
• This will take you to the final page which will require your accounting information. Please enter your information carefully, check that all data is correct and finally, select submit.

Please be aware that refund are issued twice a week: Mondays and Wednesdays. You will always be given the first available Monday or Wednesday once your funds have become available. Checks will be processed in the order in which funds arrive, as a result, you can expect a wait time of approximately a week during high volume periods of the year (such as the start of each new semester).
If you choose, your refund check may be FedEx to your preferred address, at an additional shipping and handling cost, which must be prepaid.

Note: If a credit card payment was made to your account within 90 calendar days of the refund date, funds will be issued to the credit card first. Any additional credit that remains will then be issued to you in the form of a check.

Student workers who do not participate in direct deposit,  may continue to pick up their pay checks in the Cashier’s office at designated pay periods during the course of the semester. Please remember to turn in your time sheets to the work study coordinator in Kelly House to insure that your check will be available on those dates. And please remember to bring a valid picture ID when you come in….. Graduate assistants will also be able to pick up their stipend checks when they have been issued. For your convenience, however, we do prompt each of you to go to Web-Advisor and register for our direct deposit service so that your funds may be more immediately available to you on your designated disbursement date.
