<p>Is it a check that is sent to your house? (of course after they pay the school) Do they send the left over amount to you? Thanks</p>
<p>If there is money left over after all tuition, fees, and charges you owe are paid the money will be refunded to the student. However, each school has its own policy on refunds. A school in my area will not refund money until several weeks into the term due to the number of students who drop classes & then owe aid money back to the school - other schools will refund right after the drop/add period is over. Remember that you only get 1/2 the annual award each term - and if you enroll less than full time, your award is prorated.</p>
