Under state and federal regulations, educational expenses such as tuition and fees are to be covered prior to the release of any credit refund from loan proceeds. Therefore, if there is a balance due on your student account, all loan proceeds must be credited to your account, and the Office of Student Accounts, 110 21st Avenue, Suite 100, Nashville, TN 37203, must be notified in writing or a Refund Request completed in the Office of Student Accounts before a refund check will be issued. For the 2011 fall semester, refunds of credit balances will begin processing September 6. For the 2012 spring semester, refunds of credit balances will begin processing January 25.

However, for students who are utilizing the Sallie Mae interest-free payment plan, all payments must be received for the semester before a refund check will be issued. Refunds will be processed for the fall semester beginning October 15. Refunds will be processed for the spring semester beginning March 15.

A Federal Student Financial Aid Cash Management Authorization must be on file in the Office of Student Accounts before a refund check will be issued.
