Disbursement Process — Receiving Your Aid

Disbursement Process

When Will I Receive My Financial Aid?

Financial aid is disbursed to your student account no earlier than 10 days prior to the start of each term. Current term aid is disbursed continuously throughout the semester a few times per week. Aid is credited to the student's account. Based upon notification of other awards or changes in enrollment, financial aid and student account balances can change at any time (even after the semester ends).
