DISBURSEMENT AND REFUNDS
ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ University Charles Widger School of Law’s tuition refund policy and schedule can be found by referencing the Bursar's Office Tuition Reversal Schedule.
Financial aid is disbursed at the beginning of each semester in which funds are awarded. For traditional fall/spring terms, one half of the total loan amount minus any loan origination fees will be disbursed directly to your student account each term.ÌýPlease note: due to federal regulation, the deadline for currently enrolled students to request federal direct loan funding for the current academic year is April 30th. Any loans requested after this date cannot be disbursed.ÌýIf you are an admitted or rising student and complete a new FAFSA, you will receive an Estiamted Award Offer for the upcoming Academic Year.
All student loan funds will be disbursed to your account no earlier than 10 days before the first day of class each semester. If the total aid applied to your account creates a credit balance, then you will typically receive a refund within 7-10 business days.Ìý
The timeframe for disbursing loan funds and receiving refunds cannot be changed; therefore, we recommend that you be prepared for any expenses you may incur before your refund becomes available such as: moving expense, rental deposits, etc.
