Online Undergraduate Programs
Funds are disbursed once you've reached half-time status (taking 6 credits in one semester). For example, if you take 3 credits in Fall Term 1 and 3 credits in Fall Term 2, your funds will post after Fall Term 2.
The disbursement date is usually 10–16 days after the start date for the 8-week term.
Low-Residency Programs
Funds are disbursed after the low-residency portion of your program has started. July 1 is the earliest disbursement date.
When your loans are certified, the U.S. Department of Education mails you a disclosure form and your disbursement dates.
