If I am awarded financial aid, a scholarship
or grant monies, how do I receive those funds?
All student refunds will be distributed via HigherOne. Please be sure your permanent address is valid. The Seahawk Card will be mailed to your address listed as your permanent address on Seaweb. There is a $20.00 charge to replace the card if your address is incorrect or there is a fowarding order on the address. You do not have to keep the Seahawk Card to receive a refund but you must have it to activate your status with HigherOne.
There are three options to choose from once you activate the card:
1. Easy Refund -This is the quickest way to receive your refund. Your funds are placed directly on the card to be used anywhere visa or mastercard is accepted. Using the card at ATMS that are not HigherOne ATM's will incur fees charged by the institution who maintains the machine.
2. Direct Deposit - You must complete a form and provide it to Higher One before they will release your funds and the process takes about 3 days. (If you wish to fax them the form the number is 1-866-309-7443).
3. Paper Check - This will get a check mailed directly to you from them and takes the amount of time that the postal service allows.

If I have registered and I find out I cannot
attend, will my tuition and fees be refunded to me?
If a student completely and officially withdraws through the
Registrar's Office, a refund may be made according to the
tuition refund
schedule. Please review this page for exact dates. Please note: Tuition Refunds are not available for the Summer Months.
If you are withdrawing from at least one class but not all
classes prior to the end of the drop/add period, then a refund
will be generated according to the
tuition refund schedule. If withdrawing after the drop/add
period listed in our Registration
and Billing Schedule, no refund will be generated. Please note: Tuition Refunds are not available for the Summer Months.
3. If
I have registered as a non-resident and I am expecting in-state
residency to be granted, can I just pay the difference
between the two rates?
Student Accounts policy
is to collect the out-of-state rate as charged to the student
account. We will collect the entire balance due and refund
the difference between the two rates when in-state residency
is granted. All questions regarding residency should be directed
to the Admissions
Department.
4.
If I lose my check, how can I get a replacement check?
The accounting department will require an Affidavit
and Indemnity Bond (PDF) form be completed and notarized.
The form may be mailed or returned in person to the accounting
department located in Hoggard Hall, room 145. Please be advised
that it will take at least 5 business days to process the
new check.
11.
How can I get my Hope Scholarship or Lifetime Learning tax
information?
Your IRS form 1098-T will be mailed to your permanent address
on file. You may also view your tax information online through
Seaweb.
Choose Student Information and Registration Access, then
choose the link to your IRS Form 1098-T information and
select the appropriate tax year. For general information
you may wish to view IRS publication 970 to be used in completing Form
8863 for education credits. (Form 8863 uses information
from form 1098-T). Or you can visit our 1098-T Tax Information Frequently Asked Questions website.
12. I am an
international student receiving grants and/or scholarships.
What tax information is available to me?
Your IRS form 1042-S will be mailed
to your local address on your student account February 28.
For more information you may wish to view IRS
Publication 515.
13. How do I
change my mailing address on my Student Account?
Address changes can be
made through Seanet or online at the registrar's website.
Incorrect address information can delay or prevent important
mailings, such as billing statements and tax forms, from
reaching you. If you receive loan or grant money it also can delay your Seahawk Card from being delivered to you which will prevent you from receiving your refund in a timely fashion. Please check your account to make sure we
have the proper mailing address!
