This varies not only from person to person, but school to school. I attend DeVry University online, once I have a credit balance (meaning they owe me money in excess of what was paid for tuition etc) in my account they legally have 14 "business" days to send out the refund. Note business days are Monday-Friday, so this is nearly 3 weeks.
Most of the time I have noticed that they generally try to get it out sooner and the longest I've had to wait for a refund was about 7 days. But as I stated, they legally have 14 "business days" in which to refund any money due to you.

To properly record a tax refund in accounting, you would debit the cash account to increase it and credit the income tax expense account to reduce it. This reflects the refund as income received and reduces the expense previously recorded for taxes paid.
It takes time to receive a refund on a debit card because the process involves multiple steps, including verification by the merchant, processing by the bank, and posting to your account, which can all take time to complete.
