SVF - Student Voted Fees

The Undergraduate Student Government is in charge of initiating and managing fees for services that can be enjoyed by the entire student body.  

Course Lab Determined Fees

If it is determined that a course needs special technologies and/or equipment in order to run at an effective level, the department that the class resides in may assess a course/lab fee.

Residence Hall Accommodations

These fees are based on whether a room has been recently remodeled or not and on the meal plan that a person chooses (Silver, Gold or Platinum Plan). Special living arrangements also play a part in determining these charges. Visit the Residential Services website for rate information.

Fines and Penalties

Sometimes, over the course of the year, a student may incur some extra charges on his or her bill. These fees usually arise when a person registers late, has outstanding parking tickets, room damages, past due library books, or other similar acts of dereliction.

Credits/Payments

Any credit to an account, be it through a check, grad support, wire transfer, credit card, or a dispersion of financial aid, shows up in the credit column on the student bill.

Financial Aid

Aid appearing on your bill is based upon the number of credits on your current schedule.  If your financial aid award letter contains aid not on this bill, you may need additional course credits to receive the full award package. If additional credits are added, get a revised billing statement online. If you are carrying a full course schedule and aid is not on your bill, contact the Financial Aid Office.

Memos

Memos on your billing statement reflect incomplete Financial Aid or payments from sources outside the university (tuition vouchers, Vocational Rehabilitation). Until payment is received, memo amounts are not included in refund calculations or bookstore credit.

Refunds of overpayments and financial aid

Refunds based on Federal Direct Loans are initiated the day after disbursement. All other credit balance refunds are produced the third week of classes.
