Questions and Answers About E-Check Direct Deposit
If I sign up for e-check direct deposit, when will it start?
It takes approximately 4 days to establish this program with your bank. Once your
bank account information is entered through MyOCC, a process to verify this information
with your financial institution may take up to 4 business days. For Financial Aid
students please enter/update your information by Thursday at 5:00 PM if you are expecting
a refund on the next scheduled Tuesday refund run. See the complete list of current
term Student Refund Dates.
How will I know when my refund is posted to my bank account?
Oakland Community College will notify you by email. This notification will include
the amount, the e-check number, the last four digits of your bank account number and
the date of deposit. You can verify your deposit by calling your bank or by checking
your balance through an ATM or online service. Your bank has 2 business days to place
the funds into your account.
When will my funds be available to me?
See Oakland Community Colleges Student Refund Dates. While your bank has 2 business days to place the funds into your account, generally
the deposit is made the day of the refund run.
Can my refund be deposited in the account of my choice?
Yes! You may choose any account for your direct deposit refund.
What happens if I change banks?
You must submit the new information using the Bank Information form located on the
Student Menu in the Financial Profile section. Changing banks may require another
4 day waiting period.
If I already have my student payroll check direct deposited, will I need to complete
this online Bank Information (e-check) enrollment form?
Yes. Your student account refund is not related to the Payroll Department.
What happens if I choose to cancel my e-check direct deposit?
From the Bank Information form, you may delete the current bank information by selecting the checkbox that
is next to the address and bank account information.
What happens if my refund is not accepted by my bank?
If an e-check direct deposit is not accepted by your bank, Financial Services will
be notified and the reason for rejection will be reviewed. If the reason for rejection
cannot be resolved, you will be issued a refund check.
If I have additional questions, who should I call?
Please contact your local campus business office; for phone numbers see the Campus Directory.
