When will my external award (outside scholarship) show on my account?
Our office enters awards as promptly as possible and in the order received. Please monitor your student account frequently. Your student account and billing statement will reflect the award once the funds have been received and processed by our office. Due to heavy volume during the months of July, August, November, and December, it can take a few weeks for the award to appear on your billing statement. The earlier you submit checks, the more likely your award will be reflected on your initial tuition bill. Please note that external awards do not appear as anticipated aid.
