University of Delaware

Financial Information: Summer Sessions (2011)


The Free Drop/Add period for the First Session ended Thursday June 9. Withdrawal from First Session classes after that date leaves tuition committed and non-refundable. The last date to withdraw or change grade status for the First Session 5-week classes is June 24; for 7.5-week classes, July 5. Registration and changes for the Second Session are still fully available through Thursday, July 14.

Tuition and Fee Payment

The University of Delaware uses an electronic billing process to bill all students for charges incurred. Students and authorized billing users can access the ebill and current account activity from the Campus Finances site accessed from www.udel.edu/paybill Students and those granted billing access receive email notification sent to their preferred email address when the bill is available so new students must establish a pin and email account at the time of registration to receive these notifications. Students also have the option of granting ebill access to an authorized party. See www.udel.edu/paybill for more information.

Fee Payment must be paid by the start of classes in order to avoid late payment fees and to maintain registration. If payment is not required due to scholarships, loans, fellowships, fee waivers or other credits covering the amount due, we still require certification to maintain your registration. This is also done from the ebill in Campus Finances. From the Make a Payment option please indicate Yes at the 'Report Additional Credits' page and document the type of award that is being used to cover the balance as well as the amount of credit anticipated. This will update a Reported Adjustment credit from the Account Summary where you can either make the lesser required payment or if no payment is due submit the information without making a payment. For your convenience, our online billing site, Campus Finances provides an up to date balance and therefore payment can be made at any time after registration again from www.udel.edu/paybill

When you access your ebill you have the option of paying online via your checking account. If you choose this option you should have your checking account and routing number available. If you have questions about the billing and/or payment process contact Student Financial Services at (302) 831-2126 or at sfs-advisor@udel.edu.

Continuing Education students may also pay at all of the registration sites listed in the registration information section.

Please note that:


Residency Classification for Tuition Purposes

In general, to qualify as a Delaware (in-state) student for tuition purposes, the student (or the parent upon whom the student is dependent) must have established a domicile in Delaware and must have maintained continuous residence therein for a period of 12 consecutive months prior to the first day of classes in the semester or session in which Delaware student status is sought. Individuals who work in Delaware but reside in another state are not considered in-state students for tuition purposes.

A pamphlet entitled "Regulations Governing the Classification of Students at the University of Delaware for Tuition and Fee Purposes" contains a complete policy statement and can be obtained by clicking on the above link or in-person in the Registrar's Office, the Student Services Building, the ACCESS Center at 850 Library Road, or by calling (302)831-1554. First-time students, especially Continuing Education and foreign students, should resolve any questions concerning residency before submitting their registration requests.

Financial Aid

Students who would like to use financial aid to pay for their summer session should pre-register for classes. Those students that are registered, have filed a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)for 2010-2011 and still have loan eligibility will automatically be notified of the Federal Financial Aid award(s) available to them. If you are registered and have filed a FAFSA but do not receive this notification, please visit www.udel.edu/sfs for information on other sources of funding such as a Parent Plus Loan and Alternative Loan options. If you have not filed a FAFSA for 2010-2011, you can do so at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Please keep in mind that if you are enrolled in less than six credits you are ineligible for most types of aid and if your credit load changes then your aid package will be revised. Listener (L) credits do NOT count toward enrollment status for financial aid purposes.

CANCELLATION, WITHDRAWAL AND REFUND POLICIES

Students who advance register for the Summer Session incur a financial obligation to the University. Advance registered students who later decide not to attend must drop their classes on the
Web as early as possible. This adjusts the student's Summer Session financial obligations, and frees space in courses for other students. Students in University housing must also notify the Office of Housing Assignment Services, 302-831-3676 or by email to ud-housing@udel.edu if they want to cancel. Dining Services must also be notified at (302) 831-6761. Canceling registration will not automatically cancel housing or dining.
Tuition:
If a course is canceled by the University or if a student withdraws before the end of the late registration period, a full rebate of tuition is given. There is no rebate of tuition for course withdrawals after the end of the Free Drop/Add Period: after June 9 for the First Session, and after July 14 for the Second Session.

Financial Aid Recipient Withdrawals:
If you are a recipient of Title IV federal financial aid funds** and there is a change to your enrollment, including trmination through official withdrawal, your financial aid award must be reviewed for possible adjustment. Financial aid eligibility is based on the cost of education (tuition, mandatory fees, housing, meal plan, books, etc.) incurred for the entire Summer Session, and is contingent upon completion of that session. When your tuition cost changes, federal regulations mandate that any unearned aid be returned to the federal aid programs. The percentage of aid earned is based on the date of withdrawal divided by the total number of days in the session. Title IV recipients are governed by federal policy if they withdraw prior to completing 60% of the session. ** Examples: Direct/Stafford Student Loans, Perkins Loan, Nursing Student Loan, Supplementary Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG), PELL Grant, Direct/Parent Loan.
Students are required to adhere to the University's official withdrawal policy when terminating their enrollment prior to the end of a given term. Failure to officially withdraw will result in the cancellation of any Federal financial aid program funds previously awarded for that term. Federal regulations require that funds for ineligible recipients be returned to the financial aid program accounts. Students will be billed for Summer Session charges. Handouts for Title IV recipient withdrawals, explaining the policies, procedures, and examples of Title IV refunds are available upon request at the Student Services Building.

Dining:
Cancellations must be submitted in writing by mail (Dining Services 153 Perkins Student Center) or e-mail diningservices@udel.edu or in person at the Student Services Building by the end of the free drop/add period: June 9 for the First Session (5-week and 7 1/2 -week periods), July 14 for the Second Session. When your Dining Services Agreement is officially cancelled, your student account will be credited based on a proration of unused dining plan meals for the remaining days in the term less five days plus the value of any unused points. Any credit balance in your student account may be transferred to a FLEX account.
Full details regarding cancellations and changes are published in the Student Guide to University Policies www.udel.edu/stuguide and at www.udel.edu/dining.

Housing:
Students who have received permission to live on campus for Summer Session and wish to cancel prior to check-in will receive a full credit. Cancellations must be submitted in writing, in person, by mail, or e-mail ud-housing@udel.edu to Housing Assignment Services, 5 Courtney Street, Newark, DE 19716, phone 302-831-3676.

After check-in, charges are prorated. Summer Session housing cancellation requests should be submitted on the Summer Session Housing Cancellation Form located on our website at www.udel.edu/has. When the space is vacated, charges will be based on the actual number of days that the room was occupied. Any room charges paid in excess of the actual amount owed will be credited to your student account.


Graduate Tuition Scholarships

Matriculated Delaware Resident Graduate Scholarships

Certain Scholarships are automatically granted to Delaware Residents who are already accepted to Graduate Degree programs. These vary according to the College in which the student is seeking a degree, and the year in which they first matriculated in those degree programs. Matriculated students should confirm the amounts with their College business office.

Delaware Educator Scholarships

Teachers and instructional aides in the Delaware public elementary and secondary schools will automatically receive a University-funded credit for summer session courses at the Graduate level in the Colleges of Agriculture & Natural Resources, Arts & Sciences, Earth, Ocean & Environment, Education & Human Development and Health Sciences, reducing their graduate level tuition by approximately 60% of the published UD Tuition Rates. (See table of net tuition below). Teachers are also required to pay all other applicable fees, including the $15 General Fee, the $30 Registration Fee and $25 Student Comprehensive Fee for each session. Please note, eligible Graduate Resident Teachers who may have received the "Delaware Graduate Scholarship" in prior semesters will only receive the Delaware Educator Credit for any summer session courses in which they participate. To qualify for the Delaware Educator Scholarship, teachers must hold a current certificate as a regular, provisional, temporary, or substitute teacher in the State of Delaware, and must have taught in Delaware public schools at least one-half of the total class hours during the preceding academic year (90 days). Summer bills will be electronically available starting in mid-May and credits will be automatically applied if verification of eligibility has been provided by the State of Delaware. If the appropriate credit is not reflected, then additional documentation must be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Services. Temporary or substitute teachers must submit a letter from their principal or superintendent certifying that they did teach at least 90 days during the preceding academic year. Prospective full-time teachers in Delaware public elementary and secondary schools are qualified for this credit if they present a copy of their completed contract for the following academic year or a letter from their principal or superintendent certifying that they have legally contracted to teach full-time during the following academic year. This will allow us to apply the appropriate credit to the student account. This Delaware Teacher Credit does not apply to Travel Study Programs nor to Non-Credit training classes conducted by the Division of Professional and Continuing Studies.
