*Refund Check/E-Refund – This date designates the first possible date that refund checks will be available for that particular term. The actual date a student’s refund check is available is determined by the date that funds are actually received. A notification will be sent to students via AU student email notifying them of the receipt of federal loan funds. Only accounts that have an actual credit balance from overpayment or excess financial aid will be considered for refunds. Refunds will be processed within 14 days. Any pending financial aid will not be taken into consideration. Account balances may be verified by accessing Self-Service and viewing the account summary.
