Loan Refunds

Expected Loan refund dates for students registered in six or more credits that are full semester courses. 

If there are funds remaining after JC charges have been paid, a refund will be issued.  Students with loans for Spring semester only may not receive a refund until after the second disbursement has been received by JC.  The Business Office processes all refunds and sends them to students within 7 to 10 days after the funds are posted to the student’s account.
