![]() Despite consistent promotion, many Bowie students didn’t use the Gold Card. After signing up through their Bulldog Connection accounts, approving the release of funds on the Gold Card, like with any other debit card, students were able to withdraw their refund money from ATMs, but for free.īowie State sent out emails about the Gold Card, there were flyers around the campus, and people advocated for it, officials said. Since the card was made by the Discover company, a well-known card service, students could use it wherever they wanted. The refund process was the same, but it was a free option for both the students and the university. She wanted to come up with a faster way for students to get their refunds, thus the Gold Card was started. The idea for this form of direct deposit came from the Bursar in the Student Accounts office, Terrayne Pittman. It served as an alternative for students to receive their refunded money on the card, instead of having a paper check mailed home. The Gold Card was a prepaid Discover card offered to Bowie State students in previous years.
