Financial Tool Overview

The new landing page for BlueQuill now has a financial tool built in that allows users to view financial aid information, make payments, and schedule appointments for help. This tool was designed to match the look and feel of the financial tool built into the Franklin Gateway mobile app, so once you understand how it works here, you can use this tool in the app as well. For more information on using this tool in the app, see our article: Financial Information.

Here is a quick video overview of the tool being used in the Gateway app. 

Viewing Financial Information

The BlueQuill home page shows Franklin users a quick overview of their financial information. Users can click on the quick view to open up a more detailed break down of their financial aid, disbursement dates, other sources of funding, and make payments. 

To open up the detailed financial information view:

1. In the financial tool on the BlueQuill home page, click on the icon shown here:
   
   
   
   
2. This will open up the detailed financial tool view, where you can then click on any of the categories of funding (such as self-pay) to view more details.
   
   
   
   
3. Here are some examples of how different types of funding may appear:
   • Financial Aid Payouts
     
     
     
     
     • Clicking on the "Scheduled Disbursements" tab lets you see a list of all disbursements and their dates, like so:
       
       
       
       
   • Employer Aid
     
     
     
     
   • Military Aid
     
     
     
     
   • Self Pay
