Student Loan checks are issued approximately 2 weeks after the loan application process is complete. Note: The above dates indicate approximately when loan checks will be mailed out.

Returned unclaimed checks left beyond 25 days will be automatically returned to your lender. In the event that you are enrolled in fewer than 6 units (half-time) when your loan check arrives, we will notify you that you are no longer eligible for the check and make necessary arrangements to return your check to your lender.

Loan disbursement dates reflect the date your student loan check will be mailed out. Please be advised, the date of disbursement provided by your lender does not reflect the time it takes for the check to be mailed to and processed by College of the Canyons.
