AND FEES
 
          APPROVED BY THE PRESIDENT 1 AUGUST 1991
 
 
      I. Policy
 
          Tuition and fees at UMCP are due and payable in full on
          or before the date stipulated on the billing, except
          under the following circumstances:
 
          1.     Financial aid awarded by the institution has not
                 been completely processed;
 
          2.     Guaranteed bank loans have not yet been disbursed;
 
          3.     Third-party student support contracts have been
                 awarded but not yet received by the institution
                 from the awarding entity;
 
          UMCP does not have a deferred payment plan.  Charges
          incurred during a semester are payable immediately.
          Returning students shall not be permitted to complete
          registration until all financial obligations to the
          University including, but not limited to, library fines,
          parking violations, and other penalty fees and service
          charges are paid in full.
 
          Payment for past due balances and current semester fees
          are due on or before the first day of classes.  Students
          who register in advance must pay their bills in full
          prior to the general registration period.  Students who
          register after the initial registration period are
          required to make full payment by the close of business
          the following working day to avoid cancellation of their
          enrollment and loss of their classroom seats to other
          students.
 
          Students shall be severed from University services and
          incur a late payment fee in the event of failure to pay a
          balance on their student account by its due date.  In the
          event that severance occurs, the individual may make
          payment during the semester in which services were
          severed and services shall be restored.  A twenty-five
          dollar severance fee and a late payment fee of five
          dollars or five percent, whichever is higher, shall be
          assessed in addition to payment for the total past due
          amount.
 
 
 
 
 
          Students removed from housing because of delinquent
          indebtedness shall be required to reapply for housing
          after they have satisfied their financial obligation.
 
          The State has established, under legislative mandate, a
          Central Collections Unit (CCU) within the Department of
          Budget and Fiscal Planning.  The University is required
          by State law to refer all delinquent accounts to the
          State Collections Unit.
 
          No degrees, grades, diplomas, certificates, or
          transcripts of records shall be issued to students who
          have not made satisfactory settlement of their accounts.
