2009-2010 Financial Aid Check Disbursements
(Beginning August 31, 2009)
After a student receives a Financial Aid Award Notification letter from the COD Financial Aid Office, the student can expect to receive his/her financial aid funds in the form of a check that is mailed to the student’s home address on file with the Admissions and Records Office. Students must be sure to keep their home address current and accurate.
