What if my loan has already disbursed?
If you have already received an overpayment/refund of funds related to the loan you wish to cancel please it is your responsibility to return the funds to the University of Chicago.
If the funds were distributed via ACH deposit you will need to repay to your Student Account. If the funds were issued to you via paper check you may destroy the check or return to the Office of the Bursar.
Please contact the Office of the Bursar for further questions or concerns at 773-702-8000 or bursar@uchicago.edu.
