Know What Is Expected of You. Read your award
letter and all financial aid publications carefully. Your financial
aid is based upon the semesters and number of credits you told us
you would enroll for this award year.
Sign and Return Your Award Letter Promptly. If
your award letter is not returned within 30 days of the award date,
the award will be canceled. If you do not mark the "accept"
and "reject" spaces, we assume you mean to accept the
aid. You may receive revised letters later showing changes in your
award; those letters do not require your signature. Make sure you
inform the Financial Aid Office of all sources of educational assistance
you anticipate getting such as scholarships, Vocational Rehabilitation,
Veterans' Benefits, JTPA, Tribal or Higher Education Scholarships,
Assistantships, AmeriCorp, etc.
Come to College with Some Money of Your Own. Even if your award is prepared on time, delays in receiving your
financial aid may occur. You should bring some cash to school with
you.
Register for the Correct Number of Credits. Your
award is based on the enrollment listed on your award letter. If
you don't pre-register for your courses, the financial aid office
may not be able to credit financial aid to your account in time
for fee payment.
Fees Must be Paid or Special Arrangements made by the due date, even if your financial aid is late. All
students must accept their charges with the Business Office each
semester to be considered officially enrolled; otherwise,
your classes will be dropped. Even if the Financial Aid Office makes
special payment arrangements, or a third party, such as Vocational
Rehabilitation, is paying your fees, you must accept
your charges each semester. A $40 late fee is charged
to students who pay fees after the due date.
Deferred Fee Payment Plan. If you will have difficulty
paying University charges by the due date, apply for the deferred
fee payment plan. This is an installment program that permits students
to pay University charges in four payments during the semester after
financial aid and/or third party credits are applied to the student's
bill.
Communicate in a thorough and timely manner by
responding immediately to all correspondence from the Financial
Aid Office. Include your Social Security or ID number on correspondence
or when you leave telephone messages.
