Student Request to Return Title IV Monies to Lender

Any student can return all or a portion of their refund by bringing or mailing a check to the Bursar’s Cashier Window.

• Bursar Cashier Window located on the second floor of Meshel Hall. Hours are Monday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

• Bursar Cashier mailing address is: 

  Youngstown State University 
  Bursar Cashiers 
  1 Tressel Way 
  Youngstown, OH 44555
• Checks written from a personal account are held for 14 days to make sure they clear the bank. Bank checks, cashier’s checks, and money orders are considered secured funds since they are paid for at the time of purchase and are posted within a day or two. The memo on the check should have “Return to Lender” written on it.
• If returning the refund check write “Return to Lender” on the check stub along with date, amount to be returned, and physical signature of student or parent’s signature for parent plus loans.
• The cashiers will post the refund check or check payment to the student account and then The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships will return the requested amount to the Department of Education.
• Please complete a Loan Change Form to increase, reduce or cancel loans that have previously been accepted.
