Refunds If you have a credit on your account after paying your spring bill, you may reduce your or your parent’s loan amount by the amount of your credit or you may request a refund through Online Academic Resources via MySaints, on the Emmanuel website, or in the OSFS. Students who request their refund through Online Academic Resources can request to have the funds directly deposited into their bank account. Because financial aid is disbursed after the add/drop period, most refunds are not available until mid-March for the spring semester. However, some funds, such as state grants, are generally not disbursed until after March. Please plan accordingly if you use your refund to purchase books or pay for off-campus expenses. If you have questions about when your refund will be available, please contact us at financialservices@emmanuel.edu or 617-735-9938.
