Your financial aid disbursement is based on the number of credits in which you are enrolled as of the 3rd week of the regular fall and spring semesters. You cannot receive any financial aid for courses you register for after that time (note: this will include late start courses). Many state scholarships also require that the student be full-time. If you are not full-time at the end of the 3rd week, these state scholarships will be canceled.
Tuition, fees, and other charges authorized by you will be deducted from your award. Any proceeds remaining from your award will be disbursed as an e-Refund, direct deposited into your checking account. Learn more about CCBC e-Refunds »

Refunds are direct deposited into your checking account.
If the awarded aid covers only part of the bill, the student is responsible for the difference.
