Refunds

Student Refunds

Online Students may be eligible for a refund of financial aid loan credits or payments that exceed the charges on their student account. A refund may also result from other account transactions such as adjustments to financial aid, tuition, fees, and room and board. Please note, once your financial aid loan funds are disbursed and posted to your student account, the Office of Student Accounts has up to 14 days to process and release your refund.

 

Students can receive refunds either by direct deposit or paper checks:

Direct Deposit for Student Refunds

Students have the option to sign up for direct deposit to receive their student refunds to an authorized savings/checking account of their choice.

Benefits for enrolling for direct deposit include:

  • Fastest and most secured method to receive your student refunds,
  • Funds are deposited into the bank account selected eliminating check mailing wait time.

To enroll, visit the "Financials" menu in CaneLink, then select the "Direct Deposit/Bank Account" option. 

Note: Only U.S. bank accounts can be added in CaneLink for this service.

 

Paper Check for Student Refunds

Students who have not signed up for direct deposit will have their refund checks mailed to their current address listed in CaneLink.

Mailed checks can take 5-7 business days to be delivered due to mailing wait time.
