Refund Policy

Refunds are deposited directly into students' bank accounts. Students are required to sign up for direct deposit on CUConnect. Click here to find out how. Refunds are processed weeknights and should be deposited into your bank account within two to three business days, usually sooner, depending on the bank. Students are responsible for verifying that funds are available in their account before spending the funds. Direct deposit authorization only allows funds to be deposited into your account. Funds are not withdrawn from your account to pay your bill as a result of this authorization.

Refunds reflect your current account activity on Boulder main campus. You may be assessed future charges if you change your schedule, enroll in a waitlisted class, or receive a financial aid adjustment. If you are enrolled in Continuing Education classes, you have a separate bill that may still need to be paid.

See Refund FAQ's for frequently asked questions.

Note: This direct deposit is for refunds from your student account related to your tuition and fees bill. If you are a workstudy or student worker, contact your payroll liaison to set up direct deposit for your wages.

Please monitor your account on CUConnect and be aware that you are responsible for payment of future Boulder main campus and Continuing Education charges.

If you have a federal student loan, you have the right to cancel that loan within the award year by calling the Office of Financial Aid at 303-492-5091.
