Online Refund Request Form
Spring 2010 student account refunds for qualifying credit balances
may be requested starting January 6, 2010.

FALL/SPRING terms: If you have signed up for Automatic ACH/Direct Deposit:
once you see a refund post to your student account, an additional
2-3 business days are required for your bank to make the funds available.

Complete this online form to request the refund of a credit balance on your Student (CRS) Account
which is NOT the result of a credit card overpayment.

To submit a request for a credit card refund, please click here <Submit Credit Card Refund Request>.

Once you receive an email that your refund request has been APPROVED, check refunds may take up to a minimum of an additional 10 business days for processing and mailing (longer if mailed outside U.S.). Refunds will be made by check or as a credit to the credit card used for payment, at our discretion.

Please do not use this form if:

  • you have signed up for USC Payment Plan -or- if the credit balance is a result of USC Payment Plan
    If you have a payment plan account, you must contact Student Financial Services
    at (213) 740-4077, or send email to: uscsfs@usc.edu to submit a refund request.
  • you have signed up for USC Credit Union's ASAPP - Automated Student Refunds (processed twice weekly).
    If you signed up for this services, you must contact the USC Credit Union for refunds.
  • you have a credit balance as a result of credit card payments or credit card payments combined with any other transactions including loan advances. Please use the Credit Card Refund Request form so that we may first refund your credit card up to the amount you charged.  Any credit balance remaining can then be refunded to you by check or ACH at your request.
For faster refunds, please sign up for our ACH or Direct Deposit (Electronic Refunds) service,
which checks for eligible credit balances and deposits refunds for students
directly to the specified U.S. bank account during Fall and Spring terms (only).
