All students must set up a direct deposit link to his or her checking account. This is helpful in cases in which a student regularly receives a refund of financial aid or receives other refunds, such as those resulting from overpayment. A common cause of overpayment is dropping classes and/or labs after tuition has been paid.
Once direct deposit is set up, all refunds will be directed to the student’s checking account. With this option, students will receive refunds 24-48 hours after the refund is generated.
To set up direct deposit, follow these steps:
1. Log into My Citadel Portal
2. Locate the Student Business Services card.
3. Click “Make a Payment and Review Billing Information”.
4. You will be redirected to TRANSACT PAYMENT portal page. You will then need to Click on “I agree”.
