1. When can I expect financial aid disbursements, and how do I make sure my aid is issued in a timely manner?

Baylor University disburses financial aid up to 10 days prior to the start of a term. In order for your financial aid to disburse on time, make sure all of your requirements are completed in your BearWeb account. 

2. I received my bill, but why don't I see my academic scholarship listed?

In order to maintain your eligibility for the academic scholarship, you must meet the scholarship requirements of full-time enrollment of 12 or more hours and a cumulative minimum GPA of 3.0 or above. Please note, if you will be graduating early as a result of taking classes in the summer, you may be able to apply one semester of your academic scholarship toward the cost of tuition for the summer term. See our Scholarship Exception Request.

3. I received my bill, but why don't I see my outside scholarship listed?

If you have been awarded an outside scholarship that does not appear on your bill, make sure you have reported the scholarship online here. In addition, you can check with the entity awarding the scholarship to ensure it was sent to Baylor, and designated for the term of the bill. If the scholarship funds have already been sent to Baylor and designated for the term of the bill, please follow up with our Baylor One Stop Office.
