Scholarship Process
Scholarship Recipients
If you've been awarded a scholarship, the information is sent to the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office. The scholarship will be processed and added to your student financial record. If there are any additional criteria you must meet before receiving your scholarship funds, you will be notified by the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office and/or the scholarship donor group or organization. If the scholarship allows a refund, you will be notified by email.
Scholarship Refunds
When your student account has been updated, you will receive notification that your scholarship money is available as a disbursement (known as a refund). By signing up for the Maricopa Student Refund Program (MSRP) you can have your refund sent to you by direct deposit or you can elect to receive a paper check. For additional information on the MSRP please visit https://www.maricopa.edu/students/tuition-payment-information/student-refunds. Scholarships have specific requirements for disbursement, and some scholarships may not allow a refund.
