Each student must complete all requirements for disbursement at least 15 days prior to enrollment in order to receive financial aid in a timely manner. Requirements may include a request for verification of certain materials submitted in the application process.

All federal and state grants are disbursed to the students on approximately the 14th day of each semester. A notice is sent to all students with disbursement information.
