Global FINAID Disbursement-Graduate

Any other ODUGlobal graduate/doctoral students having Fall financial aid issues?

About two weeks ago, my estimated Fall aid was showing on my account. Now it’s completely gone with no explanation, and my classes start Tuesday.

I’m also receiving emails saying I’m registered for a First 8-week course, although I’m a Ph.D. student and my courses are 16 weeks. Between the new BBAY/8-week changes and financial aid, I’m wondering if something is being coded incorrectly.

Communication isn’t helping either. I emailed campuspayments@touchnet.com, which was a working contact as recently as Saturday, and it came back invalid today.
I only learned about the BBAY changes because I happened to find the information on ODU’s website this summer.

I received my MPA from ODU, so I’m not new to dealing with Financial Aid here. It wasn’t great before, but now…whew. 😩
