Delivery of Refunds
Middle Georgia State University delivers refunds of tuition, fees, scholarships and financial aid remaining balances to BankMobile (formerly HigherOne). Students may elect to have BankMobile send their refund to a bank account of their choice or have BankMobile issue them a Vibe card - a MasterCard debit card that can be used anywhere MasterCard debit cards are accepted. More information about the BankMobile Vibe card can be found on the University's website under the Bursar’s Office page.
At the start of the semester or part-of-term session, disbursement of financial aid funds to student accounts will occur after the drop/add period has ended and no-show reporting has been finalized. Per federal regulations, refunds of remaining credit balances are released no later than 14 calendar days after posting of financial aid disbursements to student accounts. Following this period, refunds are processed weekly.
