Personal Property and
Liability
Students
who need personal bank accounts are encouraged to use one of the local banks for
checking and savings. The University is not responsible for the loss of
personal property on the campus by fire or from any other cause. Students are
advised to verify insurance coverage that may be extended from parents’
homeowners insurance. Students are responsible for all University property,
materials, and equipment issued to them and will be charged for loss or
breakage.
Health Services and
Insurance
Health
services are provided to students at the Health Services Center during regularly
scheduled hours. Full-time students must show evidence of health insurance
coverage (under parents’ coverage or self) or the student will be enrolled in
an accident and sickness insurance plan and billed at the student’s expense.
Health related expenses beyond services provided by the University Health Services
Center are the responsibility of the student.
Payment of Student Accounts
Students
may make advance payments to the University on their accounts for the coming year
from their earnings during the spring and summer months. Funds are held in trust
until classes begin and may be withdrawn or transferred by the student.
In
June and in December, an official billing is sent to each student for the
subsequent semester. Billed expenses are due by August 10 for the Fall semester
and January 10 for the Spring semester. Students are not allowed to begin the
semester unless full payment has been received.
Full-time
students may make prior arrangements for installment payments through Tuition
Management Systems, Inc. (TMS Plan) Students should join the TMS Plan by July
so that initial required payments have been made. The TMS Plan enables the
student to pay the Net Amount Due in ten monthly installments (July through
April). (Except for a small application fee, there are no monthly interest
charges.) The Net Amount Due represents the total annual charges, less any
scholarships, grants, or loans confirmed by the financial aid office but not
including estimated awards or anticipated earnings, such as work-study
employment which cannot be considered until they are earned or finalized. The
budgeted amount elected under TMS should be sufficient to cover both fall and
spring semesters. The TMS Plan is available only to those who are U.S. residents
and full-time students. Alternatively, the student may choose to arrange
private financing for educational expenses through one of several private
lenders. The financial aid office is able to provide information about such
lenders.

service charge of 1.5% or $30, whichever is greater, is added to any unpaid
balance in the student account as of the last working day of each month.
Refund Policies

entitled to a refund on the tuition paid for courses dropped, according to the schedule
shown below. Before the official beginning of classes, full tuition is refunded. For
withdrawal after the beginning of classes, the date for any refund is the official date of
withdrawal based on whether that official date falls within the specified week or day
