Financial Aid Disbursement

To receive your financial aid, you must meet all eligibility requirements as listed on Eligibility to Apply and complete all the requirements specified on the Financial Aid tab of Texas State Self Service. If these requirements are met and your aid is ready for disbursement, it will be moved to your student account with Student Business Services no earlier than ten calendar days prior to the start of classes. Any aid available after that point will be moved to your student account within 24 hours of it being ready for disbursement.

Moving Aid To Your Student Account

Remember, if you are enrolled 10 days prior to the first day of classes, and any day thereafter, your financial aid for that semester (if available for disbursement) will be moved automatically to your student account with Student Business Services. If you decide not to attend Texas State University prior to the start of classes, you must withdraw through the Registrar’s Office. If you do not withdraw, you will be considered to be enrolled and will be responsible for the repayment of all or a portion of your financial aid due to such issues as your withdrawing from the university once classes have begun, failing to earn at least one passing grade during a semester, etc.

Completing Registration Payment

For questions about completing your registration payment, please contact Student Business Services at 512.245.2544.

Refunds

For questions about any refunds once the aid has been applied to your student account, please contact Student Business Services at 512.245.2544 or visit the Student Business Services' Financial Aid Refunds webpage.

Non-EFT Alternative Loans

If your lender does not use EFT (electronic funds transfer), you will have to pick up your paper loan check at the JCK Building (student id required) within 21 days of it first being available. We are not—under federal regulations—allowed to release your funds until ten days prior to the start of classes.
