Laura -
1)We have only 2 semesters each year. Fall bills are sent out by July 10
and are due August 15. Spring bills are sent December 10 and are due
February 15th. The mailing dates are for both Freshmen and returning students.
2) Currently we are out sourcing our payment plan. It is a 10 month plan,
begining in June. There is a mailing of May 1st and another reminder June
1st. Generally our Financial Aid Office does a wonderful job of
communicating with the students about their aid awards and helping them out
at the last minute (validation day).
3)We prepare a "hold" list for the Registrars Office of any student who has
not made payment in full or made arrangements with the Student Accounts
Office to make payments by the 1st day of classes. The Registrars Office
does not allow the student to validate until they receive finacial
clearance from our office.
Hope this helps!
