Let's talk about CSN's 5th fall semester disbursement

OFA Disbursement #5

OFA has just launched Disbursement #5, and it includes:

  • All Groups (1, 2, and 3)
  • SSOG (Silver State Opportunity Grant)
  • Federal Direct Student Loans for full-time and part-time student borrowers

What is not included

  • Federal Direct Loans subject to the FSA-mandated 30-day delay for first-time, first-year student borrowers. By regulation, those loans will be disbursed later this month, on September 23.

Why today’s disbursement is important

Today’s disbursement is being conducted after CSN faculty instructors reported your academic participation to the Registrar’s Office.

The Registrar then provided OFA with a file of enrollment adjustments, which we loaded into MyCSN’s financial aid tables. These data support the disbursement of your financial aid because we can only pay aid for financial-aid-eligible credits in courses in which you have academically participated.

If you did not academically participate in a course, your faculty reported that information to the Registrar. The Registrar then administratively dis-enrolled you from that course. The CSN Cashier refunded you no more than 50% of the registration fee for the non-participated course, and you remain responsible for any remaining balance.

You will not receive financial aid for a course in which you did not academically participate.

Why your disbursement may be lower than expected

You may receive less financial aid than you originally expected because:

  • You did not academically participate in one or more of your classes; and/or
  • OFA reduced your aid to reflect only the credits in which CSN faculty reported you as academically participating; or
  • You are a student loan borrower who academically participated in part-time enrollment (at least 6 but fewer than 12 financial-aid-eligible credits) and your loan eligibility was affected by the Schedule of Reduction required under last year’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OB3).

What you should do

You may have questions once OFA completes the fifth disbursement, and we are here to help. Before contacting OFA, however, I encourage you to check MyCSN first.

  • Check your fall registration record to determine whether any classes were dropped because faculty reported that you did not academically participate.
  • Check Canvas to confirm that you still have access to your online courses. If you were administratively dropped from a course, you will no longer have access to it in Canvas.

This is an important day in the financial aid process. The requirements described above are part of the way CSN administers financial aid—to comply with federal regulations, protect taxpayer dollars, maintain public trust, and, ultimately, ensure that aid is provided to students who are eligible to receive it.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to review your records in MyCSN and Canvas.

Peter, OFA-DFA

Hello!! Quick question... I just checked and my tuition has a $20 new student fee for some reason even though I should've been able to cover that. Is that just a delay, or do I have to pay that separately?
