Emergency Short Term Loan Disbursement Dates
Refunds are issued on accounts when a credit balance is created on dropped classes. Refund penalties may apply, which may reduce the refund. Drops involving financial aid must be approved by the Financial Aid Office before a refund is issued. Payments made by bankcard will have any refund credited back to the card. All other refunds are sent to HigherOne to be disbursed via your selected refund option, OneAccount, Direct Deposit to your existing checking account or paper check via mail. Refunds take 4-6 weeks to process.
Returned Checks and Stop Payment Checks If a check is not honored by the payer's bank and is returned to the University, the consequences are serious. The service charge for returned check collection is $25.00 per item, regardless of the amount of the check or the reason it was returned. Returned checks will be billed on your student account - this means that you will see a charge back for the amount of the check. A hold will be placed on your student account, preventing any additional registration activity, until the situation is resolved. PSU is not responsible for any fees that your bank charges you as a result of writing checks against funds not on deposit at your bank. PLEASE NOTE: IF YOUR CHECK IS RETURN TO PORTLAND STATE UNIVERSITY AS NON-SUFFICIENT FUNDS YOU MAY BE DROPPED FROM YOUR CURRENT AND FUTURE REGISTRATIONS. Check writing privileges will be suspended if two checks are returned and all future payments must be made in cash, cashier checks, money orders, certified checks, debit card or Visa/MC. |
