2. FINANCIAL
AID CREDIT
– Recipients of CCSU administered financial aid awards
will note that the Billing Statement shows an anticipated CREDIT against
charges.
GRANTS awarded by
the Financial Aid Office are based on a student registering for
12 academic credits to get 100% of the award. Fewer than
12 credits will result in a PRO-RATED grant award.
Those
whose aid is insufficient to cover all charges must pay any
balance by the due date. Aid in excess of that needed for the
billed charges will be refunded after the term begins. Students
awarded aid by the Financial Aid Office are cautioned that, if
awards, for which payment of fees has been deferred, are
cancelled/decreased, the student remains liable to the
University for any indebtedness.
ALTERNATIVE LOANS
are
available. You MUST contact the Financial Aid Office for
application procedures. Once the loan process is COMPLETED, and
the loan is APPROVED, a credit of the approved
amount will be applied to your charges. When the loan is
disbursed, the actual amount received will be paid to your
charges and any remaining amount owed will be the responsibility of the
student.
3. SCHOLARSHIPS
– Students awaiting receipt of funds from private
scholarship(s) may receive credit by providing a copy of the donor’s
award letter to the Financial Aid Office.
Students given credit for anticipated scholarships, and whose
donors send scholarship checks directly to them, are responsible
for ensuring that the Financial Aid Office receives the proceeds
in a timely manner to pay off the credit.
4. CENTRAL
Payment Plan (CPP) –
Complete
a CPP Enrollment Form to arrange an installment payment plan
for the term’s current balance. Do NOT
include Blue Chip, prior term charges, or any penalty type
charges, i.e. parking/library fines, which must be paid directly
to the Bursar’s. Contact the Bursar’s Office at
billing-bursar@ccsu.edu or 860.832.2010 with questions.
5. ROOM
/ MEALS – Cancellation by the
Housing Office of a student’s room assignment results when any
amount for room charges is unpaid after the due date.
Meal plan participation is REQUIRED
of all
students in the residence halls. The University makes every
effort to see that meal plan students’ general needs are met but
special dietary requests can’t always be satisfied. Residence
Life phone number is 860.832.1660. If the billed meal plan is
not the one that you want, make another selection prior to the
start of the term and notify
Residence Life.
