Billing Information

(For eBill information, click here.)

Full-time registered students are billed in June with payment due July 15th, for the Fall term, and in November with payment due December 15th, for the Spring term.  Incoming and continuing students registering after these dates will be billed once course registration has been performed. 

Students who do not pay their bills by the due date will be subject to penalties and loss of University privileges/services including:

• Cancellation of all classes in which you were previously enrolled
  - Re-registration into those classes is not guaranteed,
  - will be on a course availability basis only, and
  - subject to a $100 non-refundable Re-registration Fee

• $50.00 Late Fee

• Cancellation of on-campus housing

• Revocation of student status

Questions about fees or your billing statement should be directed to the Bursar’s Office,
billing-bursar@ccsu.edu, 860.832.2010. Bursar Fax is 860.832.2173. Inquiries regarding financial aid should be directed to the Financial Aid Office, 860.832.2200.  Information relative to Residence Life, please call 860.832.1660.

1.       SICKNESS INSURANCE is billed each Fall and Spring term to all full-time students.  Coverage is from August 1 through January 19 for the Fall term, and January 20 through July 31 for the Spring term, and the fee is mandatory UNLESS waiver is submitted online by the first day of classes of each term at CentralPipeline (http://pipeline.ccsu.edu), click on the "Student" tab, click on “Sickness Insurance Waiver” link under “WebCentral-Banner Web for Students”.    If waiver submitted in Fall term, waiver automatically rolls over to Spring term.
PLEASE PRINT A COPY OF THE FORM, INCLUDING THE "INFORMATION HAS BEEN SAVED" MESSAGE, AND SAVE FOR YOUR RECORDS.  Do NOT include insurance fee in your payment if waiving.   After submitting waiver, please be sure to pay remaining charges.  

Full-time students changing to Part-time status at the beginning of a term and who had intended to obtain the University-billed sickness insurance will instead need to contact and pay directly to The Chickering Group at 877.375.4244 or go online to http://www.chickering.com/ for sickness insurance available to Part-time students. 

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, an initial credit of 94% 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 excess will be refunded.

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 your CPP Enrollment Form on the .pdf version of your electronic Billing Statement (click on icon) to arrange an installment payment plan for the term’s current balance.  A generic form is also available.  Do NOT include Blue Chip, prior term charges, and 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. 

6.       Payment Methods - CREDIT CARD / eCheck – Discover, Master Card, Visa and  eCheck are accepted for billed charges.  Students paying by these methods should use the secure website available at CentralPipeline (http://pipeline.ccsu.edu). 
CHECK - made payable to CCSU, is to be sent to PO Box 4010, attn: Bursar's Office, New Britain, CT 06050-4010.  The check should contain the students’ name and ID#.  The cancelled check is your receipt. 
Checks and eChecks returned to CCSU by maker’s bank as uncollectible will 
1) result in a $50 service charge, 2) cause forfeiture of personal check submission privilege. 
Credit card transactions may also be made by completing the Payment Options section on the Billing Statement. 
PLEASE NOTE:  Payments will not be accepted over the telephone. 

7.       BLUE CHIP debit account (optional) - Funds placed on account by student are accessed by CCSU student ID for purchase at various on and off campus locations.   Contact the Card Office at 860.832.2140 for more details.  You may ADD Blue Chip directly to your charges on CentralPipeline, with electronic payment required at that time. 
If you are a Full-time student and wish to use excess financial aid not yet disbursed for the purchase of textbooks at the CCSU Campus Bookstore, up to $600/term may be transferred to your Blue Chip card by completing a form and returning it to the Bursar’s Office.
