Receive your funds

If you are a CO-OP student, you'll receive your funds once you're enrolled in a study term.
Admission scholarships and renewals are usually credited to your student account in mid-July. You'll receive two equal instalments, one in September and one in January, which are applied towards your tuition fees.
If you've already paid your tuition fees, you may have a credit balance in your student account after receiving a scholarship or bursary. Submit a request for reimbursement in uoZone, under Finances and jobs, to have these funds released.
