Timing of Fall 2022 Financial Aid Refunds
Applicants for financial aid must have a complete aid application and have an aid award in order to receive any credit balance. Applicants should have a complete application by the beginning of August in order to receive a credit balance refund at the start of fall classes. Students who have not received an aid award should review their aid application documents status on the Financial Aid Portal .
Current semester balances reflected as a negative number on your billing statement and generated from financial aid will automatically be processed weekly on Wednesdays (funds must show as disbursed - as opposed to anticipated - on your statement). Please allow 3-5 business days for the funds to be deposited into your account. FAQs related to Finexio can be found here.
Credit balances unrelated to financial aid must be requested from the student by contacting Student Accounts at studentaccounts@amherst.edu from your Amherst College email address.
