Summer fee payment policy states that all tuition and fee charges are due by the Monday before classes begin. The Tuition and Fee Deferment is available for students waiting in the disbursement of approved financial aid.
NOTE: All deferments are due by the 10th day of class. ESU understands that exceptions do apply, therefore, a deferment extension may be requested for any student waiting on approved PELL financial aid.
Federal student financial aid can only be direct deposited into a student’s account by obtaining written authorization to deposit these funds. This form will allow Cashiering Services to direct deposit any refunds or excess financial aid to your Lyon County State Bank checking account. Direct deposit is the preferred method of reimbursement because it is available for student use prior to the issuance of a check.
Federal student financial aid can only cover “institutional charges” as defined by the U.S. Department of Education. This definition includes current year charges for tuition and fees, and on-campus room and board. It also includes other fees, such as: lab fees, workshops, university registration fees, facilities usage fees, and other specialized departmental or college fees associated directly with taking a class. Unless authorization is received, federal financial aid cannot be used to cover non-institutional charges such as: parking fines, library fines, breakage fees, returned check fees, application fees for short-term installment plans or any charges not directly tied to taking a class.
The only way federal student aid funds can be used to pay for “non-institutional charges” is to obtain your written authorization to pay those charges. This form will allow Cashiering Services to apply your federal financial aid to your non-institutional charges.
For payments that are to be made by another party (VA, voc rehab, employer, etc.), please contact Cashiering Services at 620-341-5135.
