Student Fees
*For current tuition and pricing, vistit www.unco.edu/acctservices/budget/costs.htm.
General University, student and health service fees are committed to support essential student activities and programs, the Student Health Center and the Student Representative Council. Every student must pay these fees each semester, whether or not he/she makes use of the privileges and activities underwritten by the fees. However, student service fees for students enrolled in the summer session may be set at a rate lower than that charged during the regular academic year.
Other Fees
In addition to general tuition and fees, and room and board rates for students who choose to purchase those services, a number of other fees have been established by the Board of Trustees. Such fees assessed for employment opportunity assistance services, transcripts, etc., refer to www.unco.edu/acctservices/budget/costs.htm for more information.
Payment
By applying for admission, registering for classes or allowing charges to be added to their account, the student represents to UNC that they have the intention and ability to pay and they promise to pay for all charges placed on their account as well as any service charges or collection costs, if any, that may be due.
The student will receive a billing statement. The first billing statement of the semester will be sent to the student's permanent address unless a billing address is provided. Subsequent billing statements for the semester will be sent to the student's local address unless a billing address is provided. Payment is due at the Cashier's Office on or before the Payment Due Date shown on the billing statement.
Payments from Financial Aid will be automatically posted to the student's UNC bill. Any excess funds will be deposited to the student's checking account.
A service charge of 1.75% of the unpaid balance will be added to the student's account if payment is not received in the Cashier's Office by the due date. Service charges are figured on the student's account by applying the service charge rate to the previous balance owed at the billing date minus any credits made to the account during the previous billing cycle. The annual percentage rate (APR) that corresponds to this service charge is 21%.
The University will accept payment on the student's account by cash, check, money order, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, direct payment through financial aid and through the Credit Available for Student Employees at UNC (CASE-UNC). To learn more about the CASE-UNC plan please contact the Office of Student Employment in Carter Hall. Payments are accepted in person at the Cashier's Office in Carter Hall. Payments can also be made with MasterCard, Visa or Discover through the Web. Visit our website: http://www.unco.edu/acctservices/bursar/accrec.htm.
The University of Northern Colorado will not register a student, release a diploma, provide a transcript, or supply employment opportunity assistance and other University services to any student or former student who has an outstanding financial obligation to the University other than a loan that is not yet due or on which payments are up-to-date. Also, failure to pay a financial obligation to the University when it is due may result in the student's account being placed with a collection agency and such action reported to a credit bureau. In addition, the student's account may be charged legally allowable collection charges and attorney fees needed to collect or enforce the student's indebtedness.
Registration Cancellation. The last day to drop all advance registered classes, without being assessed a fee is the first class day of each semester. During the Drop period, if a student drops all classes, he/she will incur a minimum charge of 10 percent (10%) of tuition and fees. When applicable, the student will also pay the new enrollment fee and housing deposit. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to drop all the classes by the first day of the semester to avoid a minimum 10% late withdrawal charge. The minimum 10% withdrawal charge does not apply if the student drops individual classes as a part of the schedule adjustment process.
Fees for Class Withdrawals. Withdrawal from an individual class is permitted until the midpoint of the course. Students can withdraw from individual classes via the Web through Ursa or in person. The student must initiate the process of withdrawing from ALL classes in the Registrar's Office. A total withdrawal may be initiated through Friday of the 12th week of the term.
Changes in tuition, fees, and other charges can occur during the Add and Drop periods if the individual credit hours change from part-time to full-time or vice versa. After the Drop deadline, no changes in tuition and fees will occur unless the student totally withdraws from all classes. In this instance, the student is assessed a percentage of the tuition and fee costs based on the number of credits registered for and the date at the time of withdrawal.
To determine the actual percentages of tuition and fees and the varying withdrawal dates, refer to the Total Withdrawal Section in the appropriate Registrar's homepage site at www.registrar.unco.edu/registration/course/withdrawal.html.
Students who need to withdraw from all of their classes must do so by Friday of the 12th week (see above Registrar's Office site for actual date). This is the LAST day that students can withdraw from all classes for the semester.
Note: 100% of non-refundable fees will be assessed. These fees include course fees and online fees, graduation, health insurance, housing damages, ID card replacement, instructional fees, lab equipment not returned, library fines, lost athletic equipment, lost library books, new student fee, parking fines, phone features, returned check service charges, unpaid cash advances, etc. Some federally funded aid programs mandate a different withdrawal computation.
All amounts owed to the University are due and payable as of the date of the withdrawal. Only charges for tuition, general student service fees, room and board may be pro-rated based on the date of the withdrawal. All other charges are not pro-rated or refunded.
Individual classes may be dropped or added during the Add and Drop periods at no charge. Students with room and board are assessed amounts based upon rates, policies and procedures explained in the Residence Life contractual materials.
If a more complete explanation of the above policies is required or if individual circumstances warrant review, the student should contact the Bursar's Office.
