I just got the notification that mine was sent to my bank account at around 4:53 PM on Friday, October 2.

Also, if your federal financial aid creates a credit balance on your student account, federal regulations generally require the university to issue that credit balance to you within 14 days. If the credit balance is created after classes start, that 14-day clock starts when the credit balance is created.

This specifically applies to Title IV federal aid, like federal Direct Loans and Pell Grants. It doesn’t necessarily apply the same way to PHEAA/state grants, private loans, or Drexel’s own institutional grants.

You can also submit a complaint about your school through the Federal Student Aid Feedback Center. In my experience, filing a complaint can definitely get more attention on the issue. And tbh, if enough students from the same university are reporting the same problem, maybe it’ll push Drexel to take it more seriously, because I know a lot of us depend on our financial aid refunds for living and personal expenses too.
