How and when will I receive my financial aid?

Financial Aid Disbursement

Financial aid is paid out in two disbursements, half for the fall semester and half for the spring semester. If all requirements for receiving aid have been met, most financial aid will disburse into your WVU student account about one week before the start of each semester; however, some types of assistance coming from sources outside WVU (some state assistance and private scholarships) may be late in arriving. Use STAR to monitor receipt of your assistance, or contact the WVU Hub.
