Student Account Guide (continued)
Revised Balance Due
Students may use the Granite State College Remittance Form (PDF/22KB) to inform the Bursar's Office of any information that will affect the balance due on their student account. Students are required to complete and submit this form when:
- The amount of the payment made is different from the "Pay this Amount" balance on their student account
- There are other credits (loans, scholarships, Academic Management Services monthly payment option, etc) not shown on their account that will pay some or all of the "Pay this Amount" balance
- They are no longer planning on attending
Refunds (Drops)
Note: Please check with the Financial Aid Office before dropping/withdrawing if you are receiving financial aid (grants and/or loans). Depending on the aid you have received, you may be responsible for repaying some or all of the aid to the College if you withdraw. If federal financial aid has been received, it will be returned to the lender in accordance with the U.S. Department of Education regulations in effect at the time of the withdrawal. The return of aid may create an unpaid balance due to Granite State College.
Requests for tuition refunds, as a result of dropping a course, will be considered only if the student completes official drop procedures. Students must file a change of registration form with the College or write a letter requesting that the course be dropped. Change of registration forms are available at all regional centers. The date the change of registration form is received by the College is the official drop date, not the postmark. This date will be used to determine any financial adjustments.
Please consult your course bulletin for the current refund policy and schedule.
Credit Releases (Credits from Financial Aid)
The refund process will begin the 5th week of the term. After that time, student accounts are reviewed for credit releases on a weekly basis. Checks will be printed on Tuesday for any credit balances released by the end of the business day on the previous Friday. Checks cannot be picked up at Granite State College as they are mailed directly from the Controller's Office in Durham, NH. You may track the status of disbursements to your account and any subsequent release of funds on WebROCK at webcat.unh.edu:8886
Returned Check Policy
A $25 processing fee will be charged for all checks returned for insufficient funds.
