FINANCIAL INFORMATION: Winter Session - 2012

Payment of Tuition and Fees

The University of Delaware bills students for tuition, fees, and other charges electronically through our Campus Finances online billing site, available at www.udel.edu/paybill. 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 Campus Finances site access throughout the term. See www.udel.edu/paybill 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 Campus Finances to maintain your registration. To do this, log into Campus 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 where you can either make the lesser required payment or, if no payment is due, submit the information without making a payment. For you convenience, Campus Finances provides an up-to-date balance and, therefore, payment can be made at any time after registration. When you access your ebill through Campus Finances, 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. There is also a credit card payment option (American Express, Discover, MasterCard), though this option comes with a 2.75% service fee and is not an option for Visa card holders. 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:

The Cashier's Office is located in the Student Services Building and 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/paybillContinuing Education students may also pay at the Access Center registration site listed in the registration information section of this website.

Financial Aid

Federal Direct Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized Loans and Federal Parent Loans or Alternative 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 2011-2012 year in order to apply for the Federal Direct Loan Program (Subsidized or Unsubsidized Student Loans) and for Federal Parent 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.

CANCELLATION, WITHDRAWAL AND REFUND POLICIES

Students who advance register for the Winter Session will be assessed charges via our Campus Finances online billing site. Advance registered students who later decide not to attend must drop their courses
online as early as possible. This adjusts the student's Winter Session charges, and frees space in courses for other students. Students in University housing must also notify the Office of Housing Assignment Services, (302) 831-3676, and Dining Services, (302) 831-6761. Canceling registration will not automatically cancel housing and 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 late registration ends, January 6.

Financial Aid Recipient Withdrawals:

Financial aid eligibility is based on the cost of education (tuition, mandatory fees, housing, meal plan, books, etc.) incurred for the entire Winter Session, and is contingent upon completion of that session. If you are a recipient of Title IV federal financial aid funds** and your enrollment terminates through official withdrawal, your financial aid award must be reviewed for possible adjustment. Federal regulations mandate that any unearned aid be returned to the federal aid programs when you withdraw. 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. If this happens, students will be responsible for any remaining Winter Session charges. Handouts for Title IV recipient withdrawals, explaining the policies, procedures, and examples of Title IV refunds are available upon request through Student Financial Services.

Dining:

Cancellations must be submitted in writing by mail or email to Dining Services (153 Perkins Student Center) or in person at the Student Services Building by January 6, the end of the free drop/add period.

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. Applicable refunds for Winter will be calculated in proportion to the semester refund schedule.

Full details regarding cancellations and changes are published in The Student Guide to University Policies and at www.udel.edu/dining.
