The Financial Services department at Oakland Community College offers a convenient
program for processing your student refund. With e-check direct deposit, we
can deposit your excess funds in the bank account or credit union account of your
choice. It's simple, safe, and convenient.
How do you benefit from e-check direct deposit?
- No lost or stolen checks or delays with mail.
- No need to go to the bank to deposit your funds.
- No need to wait for the check to clear.
Receive your refunds faster!
Sign up for e-check direct deposit online. To submit your account information:
- Go to MyOCC.
- When the MyOCC web site opens, click Log In.
- Once you have successfully logged in, you will be returned to the Main Menu. Click
Students.
- On the Student Menu, click the Bank Information link in the Financial Profile

Once financial aid disburses and/or tuition overpayments are processed, your student
refund will be deposited directly to your checking or savings account.
Q1. If I sign up for e-check direct deposit, when
will it start?
A. 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 Refund Dates.
Q2. How will I know when my refund is posted to
my bank account?
A. 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.
Q3. When will my funds be available to me?
A. See Oakland Community College’s 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.
Q4. Can my refund be deposited in the account of
my choice?
A. Yes! You may choose any account for your direct
deposit refund.
Q5. What happens if I change banks?
A. 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.
Q6. If I already have my student payroll check direct
deposited, will I need to complete this online Bank Information (e-check) enrollment
form?
A. Yes. Your student account refund is not related
to the Payroll Department.
Q7. What happens if I choose to cancel my e-check
direct deposit?
A. 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.
Q8. What happens if my refund is not accepted by
my bank?
A. 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.
