Direct Deposit

What are the benefits of using Direct Deposit vs. receiving a refund check?

  • There is no risk of your check being lost or stolen in the mail
  • You don't have to go to the bank to cash or deposit it
  • Funds for direct deposit participants will be available within 48 hours of disbursement (except at the start of each semester, where the refunds will be made available approximately ten business days after the add/drop period)

Information on Direct Deposit 

  • Your direct deposit will be activated approximately 10 days after you submit the authorization form.
  • Refunds of financial aid and other overpayments on your student account may be made by direct deposit. 
  • The direct deposit will reflect on your next monthly billing statement as well as on your bank statement.  Check with your bank to verify receipt of the funds.
  • A closed bank account will result in a return of the funds transferred to your bank account.  The direct deposit will not go automatically to a new bank account.  You must complete a new form to redirect your direct deposit.
  • This direct deposit authorization will remain in effect for as long as you are attending the University of St. Thomas and you do not change bank accounts, unless we receive written notification from you to discontinue the direct deposit option.  Written notification must be received in such time as to afford the university reasonable opportunity to act on it.
  • You will be responsible for repayment to the university of any direct deposit funds should you withdraw or make other changes to your schedule which may result in a  reduction in your financial aid or when any overpayment of financial aid occurs.

Your nine-digit Routing Number is generally located on the bottom of your checks between the symbols shown above.  Some banks however display their own number that may make the number invalid, in which case you should notice one of the following:

1) There are not nine digits in the routing number.

2) There is another symbol mixed with the digits of the routing number.

If you believe the routing number shown on your checks may not be valid or you are unsure of your bank account number, please contact your bank for this information.

To sign up for Direct Deposit you must complete and return a Direct Deposit Authorization form.  Please attach a voided check to the form.  DO NOT attach a deposit slip.

Mail or drop off your authorization form to:
