Disbursement Information

How do I get my aid?:
  • Your financial aid will be disbursed to you by the Business Office beginning with the 12th day of fall and spring semester or the 10th day of summer semester
     
  • For each term these are the specific disbursement dates
     
  • Here is how it works:
        
    Ü   When the Financial Aid Office gets ready to disburse financial aid, the computer system records the
               number of credits you are registered for and adjusts accordingly any grant eligibility you may have.
        
    Ü Your financial aid will transfer electronically to your student account in the Business Office.
        
    Ü If there is more than enough financial aid to pay your tuition, fees and any other charges owed to the college a
               check for the difference will be cut to you by the Business Office.
     
  • The Business Office is in charge of disbursing checks. 
        
    Ü   Brainerd Campus fall and spring semester disbursements are usually by the TV wall near the
              computer commons.  Summer disbursement is at the Business Office window.
        
    Ü   Staples Campus is disbursed in the Bookstore.
     
  • You may have to pay back financial aid if either of the following situations occurs:
        
    Ü   A students’ financial aid award will be recalculated for any class in which the student never showed
               attendance.  As a result you may owe tuition and fees after financial aid funds are recalculated. 
               Federal regulations require that a student must show attendance in each class for which financial aid was
               received.
        
    Ü
    Students who receive Federal Financial Aid and then withdraws from all classes, whether officially or
               un-officially (just stop attending without telling the CLC Records office) on or before the 60% date of each
               semester
    will be required to repay a portion of their financial aid.
