Accepted and fully processed spring financial aid will subtract from eligible charges on your WINS student account overnight the evening of January 23. You will not see your spring financial aid in your WINS student account inquiry screen until the morning of January 24, 2023.
If you see a negative balance on your WINS Student Account, that means your financial aid has paid toward your charges, but the refund is still pending.
The Cashier’s Office will initiate electronic refunds on January 26, but it can take your bank and additional 5 days to make the funds available to you.
If you did not sign up for electronic refunds, paper checks will be cut on January 31.
You can view your current charges now by logging in to WINS, selecting Student Financial Account, and then Account Inquiry.
