Student Account Refunds

    Request a Refund of Credit

    How do you get the money if there is extra credit on your account?

    You can request a refund of credit from your account by filling out a request form at the front desk in Accounting, or contacting accounting@biola.edu.

    Excess credit from loans or other Title IV Financial Aid is available as soon as it is posted to the account. A credit from a payment by check or online electronic check (ACH) is available after 10 banking days.

    The request must be made by the student and is made payable to the student.

  • The entire credit balance on your account will be refunded
  • If a credit card payment was made during this term, that payment will be refunded to the credit card before processing any other refund
  • Please allow up to two weeks for your refund
