What will the UA rates be for the Fall 2012 semester?

Tuition rates for Fall 2012 will be established and approved in late June 2012 and will be available at our web site at that time. Current year’s costs as well as an estimated student budget may be viewed at the Student Receivables web site to assist with financial planning.

What does ‘pay/confirm my schedule’ mean?

The payment of tuition, college/course fees, residence hall room, dining dollars, meal options and parking charges are a part of the registration process known as ‘confirming your schedule.’ Payment, or the payment plan agreement, is required before registration is confirmed each semester.

When your student receives the email notice that the account is available, he/she will go to myBama and view their account, select ‘confirm my schedule,’ choose to either pay in full or select a deferment plan, make the required payment and then the schedule will be confirmed.

What is the due date to confirm my schedule?

Students and parent/guest account holders will be able to access their student account on myBama for the fall semester bill in mid July. Notification via email will be sent to the student’s myBama account and to parent /guest specified email addresses. The schedule confirmation due date for Fall 2012 is Friday, August 10, 2012. Students registering late have a due date of Wednesday, August 29, 2012.

How do I make a payment?

Web payment on MyBama may be made by credit card (Visa, MasterCard or Discover) or by web check. The student may also mail the required payment, make in-person payments or pay by credit card via telephone.

Can a parent make payments on an account and confirm a schedule?

Yes, if the student grants access to the account (student financial account only) by establishing a parent/guest account. If the student provides email address(es) in conjunction with the parent/guest account, these email addresses will also receive notices and reminders of billing dates and deadlines. The student will have to provide the user name and password he/she created for the parent/guest account to the individual(s) he/she is authorizing. Those with this information will be able to view the student’s account summary, make payments and confirm the schedule.

Your student will still want to check the accounts to make sure any necessary payments have been made and that the schedule has been confirmed by the deadline. Instructions for setting up a parent/guest account can be found online.

I have other questions related to my student’s charges, or payments, disbursements of funds, financial deadlines, financial implications of withdrawal, etc.

Where do I go to get the answers?

Information is available online at the Student Receivables web site.
