MEMORANDUM
To: All Students

Re: Financial Aid Processing

I am writing to express my deepest apologies for the unanticipated delays

in processing financial aid awards for the 2018-2019 academic year. I
recognize that so many of you have been adversely impacted by the
delayed disbursements to your accounts that will cover your tuition,
scholarships, book expenses and expected refunds. As we work with
unabated urgency to process all financial aid packages, rest assure that no
student will be purged from courses, or asked to vacate the residence halls
for failing to meet the required 60% payment obligation, until September
30 and all federal and other forms of aid have processed and applied to
student accounts. I ask for your continued patience as we work collectively
and unrelentingly to refine our financial aid processes and procedures.
Please do not hesitate to contact me via email at rrice@alasu.edu, or by
cellular phone at 334-224-9550 if you have any questions in the interim.
Thank you.
