Credit Balance Refunds/Financial Aid/Wire Transfers

Application of Aid to Account

Financial aid is shown as a credit on the preterm bill. When the proper documentation for each award is received, funds will be applied directly to the student’s account. If you are a financial aid recipient and your bill does not reflect anticipated aid, please review OPUS for the status of your financial aid file. (Financial aid funds disbursed by co payable check require the student’s endorsement prior to being credited to the student account.

All Title IV recipients must authorize Emory University to apply their Federal funds (in excess of tuition, fees, and contracted room and board) to any other charges incurred on their student account, including minor previous balances.

All recipients have the right to rescind this authorization at any time by contacting Student Financial Services. This may affect the amount of credit balance refunded to the student.

Direct Deposit of Refunds

Students who have financial aid in excess of charges will have a refund direct deposited (see the Finances/Account menu on OPUS for set-up) or a check processed and mailed to their campus post office box or local address. Since all refund checks are mailed, it is important that students ensure their Emory/Oxford post office box or local address is current.

Refunding Proceeds of Bank Wires to Student Accounts

Although wire transfers are an accepted and effective way to pay balances on a student account, Emory Student Financial Services strongly discourages students from sending wire transfers in amounts that exceed their charges and/or total cost of attendance. Credit balances created by these transfers will be refunded only under the following conditions.

Credit Balances created by wire transfers can be refunded to the student up to an amount equal to one term of the “Cost of Attendance” for the school in which the student is enrolled. The remaining credit will be posted to the next term of enrollment as a future credit.

The Cost of Attendance is determined by the Financial Aid Office. The calculation of eligible refund amount is based on one term of that cost. An example of the yearly “Cost of Attendance” for Emory College is available on this website.
