Our student would like to move off campus for Fall term.
How does FSU account transfer funds to new landlord?
BF money is sent to the schools. The schools can control how the money is used, but I’m pretty sure FSU allows any money not used for school billed items to be refunded to the student, and then the student can do with it what he wants. The school will NOT pay a landlord.
Be aware that the BF funds are not in the account until after the drop/add day, so usually 3-4 weeks into the semester. My daughter often started school (and the bill due) in mid August but the BF money wasn’t there until Sept. Her school put it on the billing statement as ‘pending’ (at her school it could only be used for tuition) and they didn’t make her pay the tuition in advance of the funds arriving at the school. She wouldn’t get her ‘overage’ check until mid Sept.
