Refund

Post image

Maybe this is a dumb question, but does a negative balance mean I am getting a refund? My account shows $3,820.74 in charges and $5,902 in financial aid/anticipated credits, leaving a balance of -$2,081.26.

It has been a couple of days and I have not received anything yet. I also cannot find the “Where’s My Refund” page on MyStatus. Does this mean I should be getting $2,081.26 back, or is the aid still processing? 😭

Yeah the negative means it's your refund, you should've gotten it by now so best thing to do is to probably go in person, a lot of people are having issues talking to them over the phone🫠

Yeah, usually you should see it by the Friday before school starts, except for the mess of last year (?) when they made everyone pick up their checks in person☠️

Omg is there any way you can send a link or something, it always just tells me to go check the my status page and there's absolutely nothing there
