Financial aid recipients
Students who receive a Financial Aid award letter may deduct each certified award amount from their balance due. Lender fees should be deducted from each loan award. In these cases, students must contact Student Financial Service at 203‑576‑4568 for assistance in determining which action is necessary for the financial aid to be credited to their account. Please note work-study awards are not deducted from the amount due since the student will be eligible to earn up to this amount through student employment. Federal Regulations require the University to issue a paycheck directly to the student for hours worked.
Deferment of all or part of tuition
Direct billing
Students eligible for an external scholarship or for whom an employer pays their tuition may qualify for the direct billing option. Students are responsible for obtaining a Tuition Voucher from their sponsor for each registration period and to ensure that it is received either at the SFS Office by the tuition due date for each semester. Vouchers will only be accepted in lieu of payment as long as the sponsoring agent assumes responsibility for payment upon receiving an invoice from the University. Official transcripts will not be released until all financial obligations to the University have been satisfied.
