All payments to students (scholarship, award, stipend, fellowships, reimbursements, graduation gifts, prizes, etc.) must be processed through Student Financial Services since all are considered financial assistance per U.S. Department of Education regulations. As an educational institution, we at the University cannot award funding directly to our enrolled students via Accounts Payable. All payments to students that do not require service (compensation) must come through the Student Financial Services office for processing. Funding will go against billable charges (tuition, fees, dorm and meal plan) first and then be refunded if possible. The University will not reimburse you until after the event date has passed.
