4.8 PAYMENT BY STUDENT LOAN OR SCHOLARSHIP

Tuition and fees owing to the University are the first charge against student loans or scholarships, as follows:

4.9 SPONSORSHIPS

On receipt of a letter from a sponsor such as a tribal council or funding agency, Financial Services bills the agency directly. The account is considered to be uncleared (see §4.11) until payment is received from the funding agency. The letter is considered to expire at the end of the semester, at which point interest charges begin to accrue (see §4.10).

4.10 LATE PAYMENT

The deadlines for payment of fees without penalty can be found in §1.2. Students who have not paid their fees by the deadline are assessed charges of 1.5% of the total amount owing.

4.11 UNCLEARED ACCOUNTS

Students who owe money to the University are not allowed to register, make changes to their registration, or obtain transcripts or diplomas.

Uncleared accounts are turned over to a collection agency after approximately 6 months.

4.12 AUTOMATIC REFUNDS FOR REGISTRATION CHANGES

The semester is divided into three drop deadlines for fee refunds:

• Period 1: 100% refund of tuition and semester- and course-based fees.
• Period 2: 50% refund of tuition, no refund of semester- and course-based fees.
• Period 3: no refund of tuition or fees.

Dates of refund periods for most courses are given in §1.2. Dates for other parts of term can be found on-line in UR Self-Service by clicking on Class Refund Schedule. The information can also be obtained at faculty and college offices and the Registrar’s Office.

Refunds generated by withdrawals in periods 1 and 2 are automatically credited to the student account.
