Students with changes in enrollment status or amount of expected aid must notify the Student Financial Services offi ce immediately. Recalculation, as a result of such changes, may cause a delay in the release of fi nancial aid funds. IMPORTANT NOTE: Students with fi nancial aid in excess of total charges will be issued a refund check. These checks will be available in the Student Financial Services offi ce on Friday, January 18, <strong>2013</strong>.

Enrollment for the semester is considered complete only after check payment for charges has cleared the bank. When paying by check, you expressly authorize <strong>Wayne</strong> <strong>State</strong> <strong>College</strong>, if your check is dishonored or returned for any reason, to electronically debit your account for the amount of the check plus a processing fee not to exceed the state maximum legal limit.
