Title IV Funds
Title IV refunds result from students receiving Title IV government funds, such as, Pell Grant, subsidized and unsubsidized loans in excess of charges on their account. Title IV refunds are processed once Financial Aid has posted aid to the student account after the 8th class day. The business office will process all Title IV refunds within 14 days after financial aid has posted the funds to the student account. The Business Office processes any Title IV refund from a report that it runs weekly to determine the existence of credit balances.
The Business Office will process Title IV refunds one of two ways: (1) direct deposit through BankMobile Disbursements or (2) by check. The only way a student receives their refund by check is if they specifically request it in the Business Office. Unless otherwise stated, the refund will be sent via BankMobile Disbursements and processed electronically based upon how the student requested to receive it. Once BMTX, Inc. receives the refund, the student will receive an email notification stating the funds are available.
Parent Plus Loans
The Parent Plus Loan is another Title IV fund that must also follow government refund regulations. Instead of the student receiving the refund, the parent will receive the refund for any credit on the account up to the amount of the Parent Plus Loan for that semester. If the parent wants the student to have the refund, the parent must specify this desire in writing at the loan origination. Once the refund appears on the student’s account, we will look at the Parent Plus Loan application and mail the refund check to the parent name and address on the loan file. These checks will be sent via mail following the day the refund is processed on the student account. If the parent indicated to refund the student, the refund will be sent to the student via BankMobile Disbursements. The student will receive an email stating they have a refund and how to proceed to receive the refund.
Non-Title IV (Remaining Credit Balances After Full Title IV Refunds)
A non-Title IV refund can come from an overpayment, outside scholarships, or private loan to an account. Generally, these refunds occur in accounts receiving no Title IV funds paid to the students’ accounts in the current semester. However, a credit balance can result after a student receives a full Title IV refund if one of the above situations occurs. These refunds can also be completed upon request once a credit is shown in the student’s account. A non-Title IV refund can be returned to the student either by check or BankMobile Disbursements. If the student would like to receive their refund via check, they need to contact the Business Office to specify this. If they do not request a check, the refund will be sent via BankMobile Disbursements. BMTX, Inc. will then contact the student when the refund is ready to be deposited in their selected refund preference.
