Student Refunds

The University’s preferred refund method is direct deposit. Please take this opportunity to sign up for direct deposit so that future refunds will be automatically deposited into your bank account. All students who wish to enroll for direct deposit can log into COIN via the myUMassD portal to designate the bank account into which their refund will be deposited. A job aid to assist with the process can be found at COIN for Students.

If direct deposit is not established, a check will be mailed to the student’s permanent address found in COIN Student Center. Please allow 2-4 weeks to receive a mailed check. Checks are no longer available for pick up at the University Enrollment Center (UEC).
