If you anticipate a credit on your student account and want to access those funds,
you can apply for a check advance against the semester amount of the expected credit.
If you have an actual credit, you may apply for a credit release.
Undergraduate students and Metropolitan College graduate students may submit a Check Advance form or Credit Release form at the Office of Financial Assistance. All other graduate students must apply at their School or College’s graduate financial aid office.
We strongly recommend that you apply for the full amount of any credit pending on your student account as soon as it is available.
Once you have been invoiced for Spring Semester charges, any credit on your student account will be applied to the Spring Semester. After this happens, you will be unable to access those funds until late January, and only if there is a credit on your account once spring charges are paid.
If your parent (or another co-applicant) is the borrower of a credit-based loan
and that loan is generating the credit on your student account, he or she must
provide written authorization before funds can be released to you. If parent
authorization is required, submit the Parent Authorization for Release of Funds to Student.
