Scholarship Distribution: All scholarships awarded by UTeach are processed after the 1^st class day at the earliest. We want to get funds to you quickly, but we also must comply with federal and state regulations. Reimbursements for UTS 101 and UTS 110 (Step 1 and Step 2) are processed after the drop deadline each semester.

Where the funds go after paperwork leaves the UTeach office depends on several variables; what happens with one student may be different for another. The best place to start looking for the award is the “Where’s My Check” section of UT Direct.  Make sure to set the month and year correctly. Also, is your address up to date? If you use direct deposit, is the account information correct?

If you are receiving financial aid, all funds go through that office. If you can’t find the information you’re looking for on the UT Direct site, talk to your financial aid counselor for details. If you are not receiving financial aid, then the funds should be sent directly to you, either as a check or through direct deposit. Keep all information on UT Direct up-to-date so the check goes where you want it to.

Finally, you can call Student Accounts Receivable for details. Their number is 512 475 7777 and their website is here: http://www.utexas.edu/business/accounting/sar/
