Refunds for Excess Financial Aid or Overpayments

Refunds are issued to students whose account has been overpaid only after the end of the add/drop period for a given semester. Overpayments from the monthly payment plan contract will not be eligible for a refund until the contract for the term is paid in full.

Eligible students are notified via their University student email address when the refund will be available.
