EFT Authorization

Student Financial Services (SFIN) disburses financial aid through Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT).  EFT permits delivery of your aid (if there is a credit balance remaining after university charges are paid )directly to your checking account.

Have a checking account in your name at almost any bank, savings and loan institution, or credit union, and have preprinted checks available 60 days before your first disbursement.

Submit a completed EFT request to SFIN no later than 21 days before your disbursement date. Parents receiving PLUS Loans must submit a separate form with their account information.

Only one authorization form is required unless you change your name or bank account.  Immediately notify SFIN of any changes, as incorrect account information causes a substantial delay in your disbursement.
