We understand that many students need parental help. Due to privacy restrictions, the university is limited on information that we can release to parents. See Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) at: unk.edu/offices/registrar/ferpa . To assist us in answering questions, students should give guest access to parents or other interested parties. This is available on the profile page of MyBlue. REFUNDS Sign up for Direct Deposit on MyBlue. This allows UNK to disperse refunds directly to the bank account of your choice. By securely entering your bank routing number & account number (in MyBlue > Student Accounts > Direct Deposit Refunds) an electronic deposit will process to your bank account through the State of Nebraska. With direct deposit you typically will receive your refund within 5-7 days versus 7-10 days with a paper check. Direct deposit lowers the risk of lost or delayed refund checks and eliminates waiting in line to pick up a check at the Student Accounts office.

UNK Student Accounts uses a paperless billing process. When the bills are processed by Student Accounts, you will receive an email to your Loper mail advising you that your bill is available to view in MyBlue. The student account, including the billing statement, is the student’s responsibility. If a parent or other party will be paying tuition, it is the student’s responsibility to forward the billing statement in a timely manner. Due dates can be found on the Student Account website listed below. Late fees and transcript/registration holds are applied to outstanding accounts after the due date. LOPER DOLLARS With just a swipe of your UNK ID Card, you can use Loper Dollars (an on-campus declining balance account) instead of cash around campus and save 20% at the eating establishments on campus (excludes Brewed Awakening). Download the GET App on your smartphone to make deposits, check your balance, or review your transactions. Parents can make guest deposits online using their student’s NUID number.
