Deadlines and Payment Information
肉肉传媒 is part of the University System of Georgia (USG). Payment procedures are determined by USG policy and deadlines are very specific. It is important to remember, the Financial Aid Office awards financial aid while the 叠耻谤蝉补谤鈥檚 Office charges, collects and refunds.
Important Dates are always available on the Registrar, and Financial Aid websites. These websites are updated each term and you should become familiar with these very important dates.
This is how financial aid assists with charges in the 叠耻谤蝉补谤鈥檚 Office:
- Once your awards are posted and accepted (i.e., loans) and all documentation is provided
(note Additional Steps), aid will authorize to be released at the appropriate time.
- When you register for classes for an upcoming term, charges are posted and
- For each term, the authorization of aid will occur approximately one month before payment is required by the 叠耻谤蝉补谤鈥檚 Office.
- Payment deadlines in the 叠耻谤蝉补谤鈥檚 Office are available each term. If payment (Charges - financial aid = the balance due) is not received by the Final Payment deadline, the Bursar will remove registration.
- Drop/Add period for coursework can be noted on the Registrar's Office website. If coursework is removed by the Bursar because of non-payment, a student may re-register for available classes during this period.
- Following Drop/Add, financial aid releases automatically to the 叠耻谤蝉补谤鈥檚 Office. No action is required of the student to secure this release.
- Once financial aid is released and credited to the student鈥檚 account in the 叠耻谤蝉补谤鈥檚 Office, all unpaid balances must be paid promptly. If remaining balances are not paid, the student鈥檚 registration will be removed and there will not be an additional opportunity to reinstate coursework.
- If a student has a credit balance (more financial aid than charges), the Bursar will
begin processing refunds typically within 3 business days.
It is important to remember the following regarding the disbursement of financial
aid:
- Financial Aid is always awarded based on full-time status (12 hours or more for any
term). Aid will prorate according to enrollment for certain funds, i.e., HOPE, Pell Grant.
- To be eligible to receive a disbursement of a student loan for any term the student
must be enrolled at least half-time (6 hours or more) after drop/add ends.
