Students attending both fall and spring semesters will have loan disbursements made in two equal parts to correspond with the beginning of fall term and the beginning of spring term. Students attending one term will have the loan equally divided, with one half of the loan paid at the beginning of the term and the remaining half paid in the middle of the term. All summer students will receive their loan in two equal installments.

All first time freshman student loan borrowers are subject to a mandatory thirty day delay on the first disbursement of student loan funds. This pertains only to the first semester disbursement.
