DCCCD has partnered with financial services vendor Higher One since April 2009 to process and distribute refunds and disbursements to all credit students.

As a credit student, you’ll receive a MasterCard-branded card — the DCCCD Money Card — in the mail. The card will give you access to Higher One’s website. There, you’ll choose the method you prefer for receiving your money. You’ll have three options:

Reimbursement Options

  • Deposit to a free Higher One checking account — The DCCCD Money Card then becomes a debit card for your account. Before choosing this option, visit http://www.DCCCDMoneyCard.com so you can learn how the card works, understand its benefits and find out how to avoid paying any fees. (With this option, you’ll get your money within one business day.) 
  • ACH deposit to another checking account of your choice (With this option, you’ll get your money within two to three business days.)
  • Paper check mailed to your home (With this option, you’ll get your money in five to seven business days.)

Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Verify that DCCCD has your correct address at https://econnect.dcccd.edu/moneycard and set up an activation word (login required). If the address is not correct, you’ll need to visit the Registrar’s Office at your primary college, which will require a photo ID and address verification documents. Check with your registrar to see exactly what is required.
  2. After your DCCCD Money Card arrives in the mail, use your card to log in to and select your refund/disbursement preference at http://www.DCCCDMoneyCard.com. (Even if you don’t think you’ll need it, you must identify your refund/disbursement preference as soon as you receive the card in the mail. The reason: Any money that DCCCD owes you will be paid through your selected refund/disbursement preference. This includes financial aid disbursements, refunds, grants and any other payments you may be owed.)
  3. Keep your DCCCD Money Card and password safe, private and secure.
