Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Question: Why can’t I refund a student’s overpayment amount?
Answer: Refunds can only be processed within the Total Payments amount. If the refund amount exceeds the total payments made, the system will not allow the transaction.
Question: How can I re-enroll a student after canceling their enlistment?
Answer:
Go to Finance > Payments > (Student Name) > View Transactions.
Click Add Payment.
Enter 0 as the amount and check the box Mark as Enrolled.
Question: Why don’t I see a "Cancel" button for a transaction?
Answer: If an overpayment transfer has been made for that term, transactions within that term can no longer be canceled or refunded. This is because the overpayment amount is derived from all previous transactions.
