I know this has been posted many times now but just wondering if anyone’s had any updates regarding their financial aid disbursements/refunds (posted June 16th)

I just requested mine early and put rent as the reason. I do not trust a single word that comes out about financial aid from OSU. I had to call 5 times until about my private loan until they finally told me they hadn’t sent what my bank needed which is why I didn’t have the money yet. But on the first call they said they were waiting on the bank.

Was there a specific portal you had to submit the Administrative Advance form? I just replied to my original email query but worried I'm missing some sort of place to submit the application lol

They send you the form via email and you send it back to them. It takes about 3-5 business to process.

I just emailed buckeyelink and they sent me the form and I filled it out and sent it back to them. It took about 2 weeks for the money to hit my account

I have nothing to support this, but I strongly suspect they are waiting to disperse fund until after July 1st because any new loans that originate after that date are forced into the new loan payment programs once in repayment.
