Processing has begun on Spring 2020 refunds. Don't forget to submit a Refund Request!

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND:

• Refunds will not be issued without a credit balance.
• Once a refund has been posted to your account, they should be printed and available for pick up after 1pm the following day.
• As the popularity of mobile banking apps rises, please be aware of your bank's deposit limit for checks. Some banks will not accept mobile deposits in large amounts. If you have a large credit, you may need to request two checks or make your deposit in person.
• 2nd Party checks/wire transfers/refund to credit cards may take longer due to varying banking operation times.
• If you're wanting to cash your check instead of depositing it, be aware that funds may not be available for immediate withdrawal.
• If you change your mind and want to cancel a refund check once it has been printed, there will be a $35 Stop Payment Fee.

For more information, contact our office or check out our REFUNDS page!

The FAFSA for 2020-21 opened on October 1 using 2018 tax information. We encourage all students who plan to take federal & state financial aid next year to apply early. Applying now has several benefits:

• Some aid money, usually grants, are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Filing early gets you first in line!
• The sooner you file, the sooner you can get your financial aid offer and begin planning for next fall.
• If you have questions or need help filing, you have more time to get help. Our offices are not busy right now. Your financial advisor is free to sit down and explain the process to you without the worry of class cancellation or registration delays.
• Filing now when you have more time to react to filing requirements or verification requests can cut down on mistakes that could cost you time and money later.

Before you file, read this Wall Street Journal article on 10 of the Biggest Financial-Aid Mistakes. Do any of these sound familiar?
