how is financial aid is applied to my bill?

Financial aid will not pay to your account until after the add/drop period for the semester. This means your account may still show a balance due until the funds have been received. Financial aid (if approved and accepted) will, however, be used as a credit toward your bill.  

• The Office of Student Accounts will give a student credit for financial aid that has been approved and is set to disburse at the beginning of the semester. 
  • If you have enough financial aid in place to cover your bill, there is nothing further for you to do at this time.
  • If you do not have enough financial aid to cover your bill, you must resolve your bill with the Office of Student Accounts by the bill due date each semester to avoid receiving a $100 payment extension fee and a hold on your registration.

what are some tips to understanding my bill?

If the amount you see is a negative number:

• You will receive a refund because your financial aid is more than enough to cover your balance at the university.
  • Consider reducing your loans to just enough to cover your bill to help minimize your loan debt!
  • If you need your refund for other educational expenses, sign up for Direct Deposit through SAM (Student Account Manager) for quicker and more secure delivery of your refund!

If the amount you see is zero (0):

• Your financial aid is exactly enough to cover your balance at the university. There is nothing further you need to do at this time.

If the amount you see is a positive number:

• You have a balance due to the university. 
  • Check to see if all financial aid requirements are completed by visiting the 
    • Under the Financial Aid Requirements section, select the applicable aid year. Here you can see if you have any outstanding tasks or documentation that need to be submitted to the Office of Financial Aid. Outstanding tasks and documentation can delay the processing of your aid.
  • If all of your requirements appear to be complete and you are in need of additional aid options, check out more information about the types of loans available to help you bridge the gap.
• Make sure to resolve your bill with the Office of Student Accounts (OSA) by the bill due date to avoid receiving a $100 late fee and a hold on your registration. 
  • When in doubt, contact the Office of Financial aid for further assistance.
