To ensure that your financial aid refund is available as soon as possible, make sure that all your paperwork is in order prior to your departure. Loan promissory notes sent to you by the Office of Financial Aid must be submitted in order for loan funds to disburse. A Power of Attorney is suggested if you cannot complete the financial aid process before your departure. Also, consider having your refund directly deposited in a bank account to which you have access via an ATM card. All federal, state, and institutional loans can be deferred while abroad, as long as you maintain your half-time enrollment status.
Counselors are available.
