| It is possible to Buy Before Financial Aid is Disbursed! Student Financial Services strives to have all eligible financial aid refunded by the end of the second week of classes. All debts owed to the University are paid first and any financial aid over and above these expenses is sent as a refund to the student. The processing of financial aid awards continues throughout fee payment and the drop/add period. Late awards of financial aid are processed in the same manner throughout each academic term. |
