No. Your aid offers are based on the aid that we are able to offer you and your estimated
annual Cost of Attendance Budget, which includes estimated TU charges and allowances for other expenses, such as books
and living expenses.
If your expected charges exceed your aid offers, you must pay the remaining balance
by the Due Date on your online eBill. If your aid exceeds your charges, the Bursar’s
Office will send you a refund after your bill is paid. For more detailed financial
aid refund information, please visit our Aid Disbursements & Rebates; and for more detailed billing information, visit or call the Bursar’s Office at 410-704-2100.
These are the most common situations. For more information, see Award Changes & Reductions. Please notify our office of any changes listed below so we may adjust your financial aid promptly.
To avoid late or unexpected aid changes, please read Your Award Guide and promptly complete all the steps on the Undergraduate Student Instructions or Graduate Student Instructions for accepting aid.
We will primarily communicate with you through your TU student email account. You
must read all aid emails, complete all aid tasks, and must notify parents of all requests
for parent data. (See below for instructions on how to automatically forward copies
of your financial aid emails to your parent's email accounts.)
We will also post documentation requests on your To-Do-List at Towson Online Services. Please check your To-Do-List weekly.
From your TU email account, go to Settings and select the source you want forwarded — finaid AT_TOWSON. Select More to filter messages “to” and “from.” Be sure to disable “all forwarding” and apply the filter.
