Check Your Bursar Account Status Online

Third-Party Access: Third-party access is a OneStart role that, as a student, you can assign to any person(s), such as a parent or guardian, to whom you wish to grant access to your personal information available through the Self-Service tab in OneStart. You can assign third-party access to as many persons as you wish, for example, both of your parents. Note: Third-party access is read only for all information.

No Personal Deferment Option and Late Payment Fees

The Personal Deferment Option (Payment Plan) will not be offered for the Summer 2008 term. Late Payment Fees will not be assessed for those students registered for the Summer 2008 term until after the June 27 due date. If you have not paid the amount due on your bursar account by the due date, your account will be past due and you will be ineligible to receive university services ( i.e., transcripts, enrollment verifications, process initial enrollment / registration) for future terms. If your Summer 2008 bursar account balance is outstanding after the June 27 due date, a Late Payment Fee equal to 1.5% of your account balance will be assessed to your bursar account each month your balance remains past due.

No Automatic Cancellation of Class (Wash-Out)

An automatic cancellation of classes ( wash-out) for nonpayment will not be done. If you do not plan to attend or do not want to be financially responsible for your classes, you must withdraw prior to the end of the 100% refund period for the session in which you enrolled. The 100% refund period ends at 5:00 p.m. on May 16 for most Summer I session classes and at 6:00 p.m. on July 7 for most Summer II session classes. If you do not withdraw during the 100% refund period, you will be responsible for all tuition and fees or any forfeited fees incurred.

Important Note For Financial Aid Recipients

Financial Aid will be packaged based on actual enrolled hours for the summer. Students who expect to use financial aid to pay summer fees should register early for ALL classes in order for aid to be processed in time for their bill due date.

If you choose to wait to register, you could be subject to a late registration fee, your classes could be full, and most importantly, it will significantly delay your financial aid. Refer to the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarship website to apply for Summer Aid 2008.

Refunding Excess Financial Aid

The Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships will not begin packaging student awards until after the student registers for classes. Therefore, it is important for students expecting aid for Summer 2008 to register early for one or both summer sessions. The Office of the Bursar will begin processing refunds of excess financial aid on May 5. Refunds will be processed for those students who either meet the eligibility criteria by registering in only the Summer I session or by registering in both the Summer I session and the Summer II session. June 20 will be the 1st refund date for those students who meet the eligibility criteria by registering in only the Summer II session.

Anticipated Financial Aid

The Financial Aid Office processes awards under one of two general conditions.  “Real” awards that can immediately be applied to your account, and Anticipated Aid, expected awards that are under review because the conditions have not yet been met to qualify for their passing to your bursar account as usable credits. The amount of Anticipated Aid may change before it becomes “real” and passes to your bursar account as usable credits. Anticipated Aid will either change to a "real" award and pass to your bursar account as usable credits or be removed from your account on the date shown on your bursar account (30 days after it first appears as Anticipated Aid). Anticipated Aid does not reduce the amount of your outstanding bursar account balance and cannot be figured into the amount to be refunded. Only “real” awards can pay tuition and fees and create a refundable credit. Bank loans will not appear as Anticipated Aid. They will only appear on your bursar account as a “real” award.  

Please check your bursar account and financial aid activity via OneStart. Through OneStart you will see your bursar account and aid activity as it happens.  Both types of financial aid awards can be viewed on-line in real-time.  You also will be able to see details that explain reasons why your aid may not have passed to your bursar account and what you can or should do about it.

All fees and dates are subject to change without notice.
