Additional Disbursement Information

Loan Disbursement Notification

Students are notified of the amount of Title IV loan funds they can expect to receive. The notification outlines the type of loan (such as Unsubsidized or PLUS), the disbursement date, and the amount. Students are notified in writing of the date and the amount of the disbursement no earlier than 30 days before or no later than 7 days after crediting the student’s account. The notice explains the borrower’s right to cancel all or a portion of the disbursement and the procedures for doing so.

Student Authorizations 

The University uses Federal Student Aid (FSA) funds to cover charges for tuition and fees. The University obtains authorization from a student (or parent borrower) to use FSA funds to pay for allowable educationally related charges other than tuition and fees. The authorization from a student allows the University to carry out the activities for which authorization is provided for the entire period that the student is enrolled at the University. The student may cancel or modify the authorization at any time. 

Credit Balances

The University disburses funds within 14 days after the Federal Student Aid (FSA) credit balance occurs.
