Refunds for the most part need to be requested in order to be disbursed. If no action is taken by the student, then credit balances will be rolled over from one term to the next. If a student has a credit balance on his or her account and becomes inactive - that is, if he or she is to leave the university for any reason: graduation, leave of absence, etc. - a refund check may be mailed to his or her permanent address if it is not requested. Otherwise, the only funds that will be disbursed without student action are title IV funds.

If you are eligible for a refund, you are encouraged to request it as soon as funds are deposited in your account, and you are fairly certain that you will not incur significant further charges from the university. This includes anyone eligible for title IV refunds.

Once a refund has been requested, the student account is reviewed for accuracy of charges, possible pending charges, and accuracy of funds posted to the account. Once the request is approved, a check will be generated (or funds will be transferred in the case of electronic refunds) within 48 hours. The check will be in the mail or available for pickup (or the funds transfer will be complete) within four business days. We strongly recommend electronic transfer of refunds since we cannot control the speed at which the USPS operates.
