Refunds

When a student account has a credit balance where payments and credits exceed total charges due, a refund of these excess proceeds will generally be processed and the excess returned to you by check. This is an automatic process. No action is required by the student.

The refund check will be mailed to you unless you enroll for direct deposit of your check. The refund check is printed by the State of Nebraska. UNL is identified on the remittance advice under "Remark." The refund will appear in the "Charges/Refunds" column on your statement because it is showing that payment has been made for the credit balance.

There are a number of benefits to direct deposit. Check it out!
