Account Balances

All Account balances are carried forward each semester. Should a JU Dolphin Card member not re-enroll and the account shows no activity for one month, it will be retired to an inactive file. Those accounts with a balance more than $10.00 will be refunded per the Payment Policy. Balances under $10.00 will be retained and donated to the JU Fund.

Refunds

The JU Dolphin Card cannot be used for cash withdrawals. All refund requests must be submitted to Student Accounts in writing. Enrolled students may request refunds only within the last two (2) weeks of the semester. Refunds will require one to two (1 - 2) weeks to process, and the proceeds will be forwarded to the student’s permanent address.

Refunds will not be issued to students owing a balance on their tuition account. Credit balances will be applied to the student tuition account for all non-returning students owing a balance.

Transferring Credit

Students have the option of transferring a financial aid credit balance to their Dolphin Card by completing a Dolphin Card Transfer Form. Transfers are subject to the pending financial aid being confirmed and will be processed within 1 to 2 business days. The form can be found here: https://etcentral.ju.edu/#/form/22
