<p>Talk to your financial aid department tomorrow. If they have your financial aid information and all the documentation they have requested they probably will give some wiggle room on the tuition payment dates. My son returned to school in the fall and it was a last minute decision - his aid was processed pretty quickly.</p>
<p>Really only your school can tell you. My son and daughter both get financial aid and I was surprised at how differently each school processed everything. For instance my daughter’s school gives refunds of any excess aid almost as soon as the drop class period passes (@ 2 weeks into the semester). At my son’s school it was almost 6 weeks into the semester (awkward with rent and bills to pay).</p>
