OMSCS Student Scholarship-return to donor

Hello All,

I'm hoping to get help from the community. I'm currently enrolled in OMSCS - since Fall 2023 - with expected graduation in May. I'm a veteran using my GI Bill with 19 months and 22 days left. I have used my GI Bill for every semester with no issues until this semester. NOTE: I have used my GI Bill to pay for the entirety of the program except for two seminars I took, which I paid for out of pocket and I have the receipts.

I have an outstanding balance on my account from July 2025 that says "Scholarship-return to donor". I have called the Bursar, Registrar, Veterans Services (spoke to Jay), and Third Party Billing (spoke to Ingrid) but was unable to resolve the issue. Third Party Billing seem to have the most information, which was basically, "Yea, this looks weird. I have no idea what this is". So it sounds to me like GT made a mistake.

Has anyone had this happen to them before and what was the resolution?

Edit: Ingrid called me back. Told me that it's because I dropped a class over the summer and so they wanted their money back. This is 100% wrong. I dropped the seminar which I had to pay for out of pocket anyway because I did it late. I have transcripts that confirm I dropped the seminar and not the class.
