Loan Funds
- You will receive an email when loan funds have been applied to your Baker College account.

To qualify for the second disbursement, students must be registered at least half time after the midpoint of the quarter. The second disbursement is applied to your account after that date.

Students who receive financial aid or loans in excess of their charges are issued a refund. Refunds issued from excess financial aid funds are issued by check and are mailed to the student's address on record with Baker College. Please ensure that your address is up to date in order to receive your excess aid refund timely.
