If you register for Cohort 2 (Fall B or Spring B) after your financial aid disburses (pays) you may not receive additional funding if you already received $10,250 for the semester. You will need to:

a) Use any amount received in a refund during Cohort 1 to pay for your charges in Cohort 2.

OR

b) If you did not accept your full loan amount in Cohort 1, you will need to contact the Office of Financial Aid to request an increase to your loan to help cover the cost of Cohort 2.

Once you accept your loans and complete all financial aid requirements these loans can be used as a credit towards your bill.

• If you are enrolled in both Fall A (Cohort 1) and Fall B (Cohort 2) and/or Spring A (Cohort 1) and Spring B (Cohort 2) your full loan will pay to the university on the standard initial disbursement date for the semester(s) you begin enrollment. 

The payment of your financial aid and the charges that will be covered will rely heavily on your registration and when you are registered for Cohorts 1 and 2.

You are registered for Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 in the same semester at the time when financial aid pays for the semester.

Your loans will pay to the university on the standard disbursement date listed above.

• If you accepted the full amount of your offered loan, your aid would cover any charges you have for Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 as of the disbursement date.
  • If you add another class in Cohort 2 at a later date, you will not receive additional funding as you will have already received your fully allotted loan amount for the semester.
  • You would need to use any amount you received in a refund to help pay for the additional course you added.
• If you accepted a partial amount of your offered loan, your aid will cover any charges you have for Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 as of the disbursement date and up to the amount you accepted in the loan.
  • If you add another class in Cohort 2 at a later date, you will not automatically receive additional funding. Federal regulation does not permit the Office of Financial Aid to increase your loan without consent.
  • You will need to contact the Office of Financial Aid to request an increase to your loan to help cover the cost of the additional course you added.

You are registered for Cohort 1 only when financial aid pays for the semester and plan to register for Cohort 2 in the same semester at a later date.

Your loans will still pay to the university on the standard disbursement date for the semester.

• If you accepted the full amount of your offered loan, your aid would cover any charges you have for Cohort 1 as of the disbursement date.
  • Once you register for Cohort 2, you will not receive additional funding as you will have already received your fully allotted loan amount for the semester.
  • You would need to use any amount you received in a refund to help pay for the additional course you added.
• If you accepted a partial amount of your offered loan, your aid would cover any charges you have for Fall A as of the disbursement date and up to the amount you accepted in the loan.
  • If you add another class in Cohort 2 at a later date, you will not automatically receive additional funding. Federal regulation does not permit the Office of Financial Aid to increase your loan without consent.
  • You will need to contact the Office of Financial Aid to request an increase to your loan to help cover the cost of the additional course you added.
