New Fee Pa
SPRING 1994 PRE-BILLING
Students who register for the 1994 <
Spring Semester before December 2, 1993
will receive a bill that will be very different
from the bill received in the past. The new
bill will list the classes the student is registered
for and the charges the student currently
owes the University. Additionally, the
bill will list the student's financial aid. For
the first time this financial aid can be used
during the prepayment time frame to pay the
bill.
The following is an explanation of the
new bill:
(T) Section One of the bill will be the
schedule of courses the student is currently
enrolled in at the time of billing. These
courses were used in computing the charges ,
due. Students will be billed at the part-time
rate if their courses reflect that they are parttime
students. Students are urged to register
during their TIPS registration appointment
time and make every effort to enroll as fulltime
students if they wish to be billed at the
full-time rate (12 hours) for fee purposes.
(2) The upper portion of Section Two of
the bill will be used to convey general
messages such as the final date to pay fees
prior to cancellation. The lower portion of
Section Two will contain payment options
and instructions that pertain specifically to
this student. i
(5) The left side of Section Three of the .
bill will display the charges due at the time of
billing. The right side of Section Three will
display all available and pending financial ^
aid. Available financial aid is that aid that has j*
been finalized and approved by the Office of ""
Student Financial Aid and Scholarships. Aid
not yet finalized will be listed in the pending m.
column, and the code listed adjacent to the
pending column will be explained on the
bottom right of Section Three. <
Because of federal timing restraints and T""
regulations, NO STAFFORD OR SLS
(SUPPLEMENTAL) CHECKS WILL BE
SENT TO THE UNIVERSITY IN TIME TO
BE AVAILABLE AID ON THE PREBILL.
If you are receiving a Stafford or SLS loan,
you may call TIPS after December 29 and
use these loans to prepay your Spring
Semester charges. YOU MUST COME TO
THE COLISEUM DURING REGISTRAtion
to rwnoDcc vot to ctacmon
OR SLS LOAN CHECKS.
(3) Section Four of the bill is a reprint of
Section Three that will be retained by the
Bursar's Office.
(D If you wish to add optional fees you
may use the reverse side of the bill. Section
Five. Some examples of fees that may be
added are meal plans, cash cards, insurance,
etc.. If you add optional charges to the bill,
do not add them aeain through TIPS.

BEFORE RETURNING IT TO THE UNIVERSITY
FOR PROCESSING.
It is recommended that students with Stafford or
SLS pending financial aid call TIPS after December 29
to pay their bill. After this date most of these loans will
have been sent to the University and can be used to pay
the Spring Semester bill. However, if the student has not
met other criteria such as federal loan counseling or
advisement, the loan will not be available until all
criteria have been met.
All students who have financial aid greater than
their charges must come to the Coliseum at their scheduled
appointment time to receive their financial aid
balance due check.
