FINANCIAL INFORMATION: Winter Session - 2013


The Free Drop/Add period ends Tuesday January 8. Withdrawal from Winter classes after that date leaves tuition committed and non-refundable. The last date to withdraw or change grade status is Tuesday January 22.

Tuition and Fee Payment

The University of Delaware bills students for tuition, fees, and other charges electronically through our My Finances online billing site, available at www.udel.edu/myfinances. Billing notification is sent via email to the preferred billing email listed on UDSIS, 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. Student and authorized billing users can then access the ebill and current account activity from the My Finances site access throughout the term. See www.udel.edu/myfinances for more information.
        Bills are due prior to the start of classes in order to avoid late payment fees and to remain registered in courses. If financial aid (scholarships, loans, Grad Contracts, fee waivers or other credits) is sufficient to cover the balance due, we still require that you notify us of this aid via My Finances to maintain your registration. To do this, log into My Finances. From the 'Make a Payment' option, please indicate 'Yes' at the 'Report Additional Credits' page and indicate both the type and amount of award that is being used to cover the balance. This will update a Reported Adjustment credit from the Account Summary. From here you can either make the lesser required payment or, if no payment is due, submit the information without making a payment.
        For you convenience, My Finances provides an up-to-date balance and, therefore, payment can be made at any time after registration. When you access your ebill through My Finances, you will be able to pay online via your checking account (please have your checking account and routing number available). Alternatively, you can pay via credit card (though the University does not accept Visa and there is a 2.75% service fee associated with this option). If you have questions about the billing and/or payment process, contact Student Financial Services at (302) 831-2126, or sfs-advisor@udel.edu.

Please note that:

Payment Locations
        The Cashiers Office in the Student Services Building is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. To view and pay your bill online via your checking account go to: www.udel.edu/myfinances.

Residency Classification for Tuition Purposes

In general, to qualify as a Delaware (in-state) student for tuition and fee purposes, the student (or the parent/guardian 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/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 the purpose of tuition and fees. First time students should resolve any questions concerning residency prior to submitting a registration form.
The complete residency policy can be found at www.udel.edu/registrar/residency.

Financial Aid

Federal Direct Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized Loans and Federal Direct PLUS (Parent) Loans or private educational loans are the primary source of financial aid available for Winter Session. Students must have filed a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form for the 2012-2013 year in order to apply for the Federal Direct Loan Program (Subsidized or Unsubsidized Student Loans) and for Federal PLUS Loans. Students should also be pre-registered for Winter Session classes when they request a Direct Loan, and Direct Loans for Winter Sessions are processed after November 1. Contact Student Financial Services at (302) 831-2126, or at sfs-advisor@udel.edu for additional information. Please note that financial aid awards are based upon your enrollment status and Federal Direct Loans require that you maintain enrollment of at least 6 credit hours during the Winter Session. If your enrollment status or credit hour load changes, then your aid package will be revised. Furthermore, if you are enrolled for less than three credits, you are not eligible for most types of aid. Listener (L) credits do NOT count toward enrollment status for financial aid purposes.
