Checking your status Paying your bill Payments to the university are handled by the Office of the Bursar. We transfer your aid to them at the beginning of each academic period. If your aid exceeds your bill, you will receive a check for the difference. If your aid doesn't pay all of your charges, you must pay the difference. If you miss the deadline When your aid applies Even if you received your financial aid notification in May, your academic year aid won't pay anything until 10 days before the start of classes.
Most aid applies one semester at a time.
The loans listed on your Financial Aid Notification are only offers. You have to sign the promissory note we sent you to receive the funds. If none of your aid has applied to your bill, it could be because we haven't received verification documents we asked you for. This ensures we're awarding aid correctly. If you were randomly selected for verification, we sent you a letter telling you your aid was on hold until we received the documents listed.
