Guide for Scholarship Organizations

Issuance of Checks for Student Scholarship Payments

Mail scholarship checks for students at the University of Louisville directly to the Student Financial Aid Office at the following address:

Student Financial Aid Office
Attn: Fiscal, Operational, and Scholarship Management Team
University of Louisville
Houchens Building, Room 110
Louisville, KY  40292

Make checks payable to the University of Louisville. Include a student identifier directly on the check when possible. Checks must always be accompanied by additional information, such as

  • a unique identifier in addition to the student's name
  • restrictions and/or disbursement eligibility requirements
  • academic year and/or semester payment is to be applied
  • organization contact for eligibility and refund inquiries

Eligibility Verification Requests

Requests for verification of eligibility must be directed to the scholarship recipient.  The University of Louisville's Student Portal Network (ULink) provides an excellent mechanism for students to provide documentation from a university source to certify essential eligibility requirements, such as enrollment, tuition & fees, and financial aid package information. When direct certification of information from the Student Financial Aid Office is necessary, scholarship recipients may be directed to contact the Student Financial Aid Office for assistance to comply with an organization's request for the purpose of scholarship disbursement. In no case is the Student Financial Aid Office authorized to release information directly to an organization with or without student consent.  Delivery of required information to scholarship-granting organizations is made directly via the scholarship recipient and only when the release of information to the scholarship recipient is in compliance with the Student Financial Aid Office's explicit consent standards established for this purpose.
