Authorization to Apply Federal Financial Aid to Non-Institutional Charges
- Ø Federal student financial aid can only cover “institutional charges” as defined by the U.S. Department of Education. This definition includes current year charges for tuition and fees, and on-campus room and board. It also includes other fees, such as: lab fees, workshops, university registration fees, facilities usage fees, and other specialized departmental or college fees associated directly with taking a class. Unless authorization is received, federal financial aid cannot be used to cover non-institutional charges such as: parking fines, library fines, breakage fees, returned check fees, application fees for short-term installment plans or any charges not directly tied to taking a class.
- Ø The only way federal student aid funds can be used to pay for “non-institutional charges” is to obtain your written authorization to pay those charges. This form will allow Student Accounts to apply your federal financial aid to your non-institutional charges.
Authorization to Apply Federal Financial Aid to Prior-Year Charges
- Ø Federal student financial aid can only cover “current” academic year institutional charges as defined by the U.S. Department of Education. In order to pay “prior year” charges with your current academic year’s financial aid up to a maximum of $200, you must provide written authorization for Student Accounts to do so. If you have enough financial aid to cover your current year charges and have excess financial aid that you would like to apply to pay off a prior year balance due on your student account, you may do so by completing the below authorization form and submitting to Student Accounts and Cashiering Services.
