In order to receive financial aid you must first complete your financial aid application and submit any required documentation to the Financial Aid office.
Once Rio Hondo College has received your FAFSA and you have enrolled in classes, Bank Mobile will send a refund selection kit to you by U.S. mail and through your Rio Hondo College student email. (California Dream Act students will not receive a refund selection kit. Any financial aid funds will be disbursed by check.)
Once your refund selection kit arrives, simply follow these steps to make your refund preference sleection:
- Visit RefundSelection.com
- Enter your Personal Code (found in your refund selection kit)
- Select how you’d like to receive your money
- Complete your profile.
Your options for receiving your refunds are:
- Electronic Deposit to another Account
- Money is transferred to another account the same business day BankMobile receives funds from Rio Hondo College. Typically it takes 2-3 business days for the receiving bank to credit the money to your account.
- Electronic Deposit to a BankMobile Vibe Account
- If you open a BankMobile Vibe account (upon identity verification), money is deposited the same business day BankMobile receives funds from Rio Hondo College.
- Paper Check Delivered by USPS
- A check is mailed the same business day BankMobile receives funds from Rio Hondo College, provided receipt is within daily cutoff times. Typically, it takes 5-7 business days for the check to arrive, depending on USPS First-Class delivery.
