Loan Disbursement & Refund Schedule

Loan Disbursement and Refund Schedule 2023-2024

As loan applications become complete at the beginning of each semester, the financial aid office will draw loan funds down from the U.S. Department of Education and disburse them to your student account. After first paying your MSP bill for outstanding tuition/fee charges, any excess balance will be refunded to you.

Direct Deposit

Students may authorize to have financial aid refunded via direct deposit which is faster and more cost effective. Do not email (unsecure) the completed direct deposit authorization. Use this secure upload to submit the form and any bank/account verification (you must be logged into your MSP email account) to the MSP Financial Aid Office.

Paper refund checks will be mailed if there is no direct deposit authorization, and will occur no later than 14 days after disbursement.
