Billing Information for the Summer Sessions
Each summer session is billed separately; therefore if you are enrolled in more than one session, you will receive a separate bill for each session. The session each bill pertains to is noted near the top of the bill. Payment is expected by the due date printed on the bill. Please use the envelope provided to send your payment or pay online. Payment plans are not available during the summer session. Please be advised that "due upon receipt" means that the bill is currently due and should be paid immediately.
When you receive a bill which you believe will be covered by financial aid, follow these steps:
-
Review your bill to see if the financial aid has already been deducted. If the aid has not been deducted and you have proof of its approval, you may deduct the amount from the balance due.
-
Return the top portion of the bill with payment of any balance due by the due date on the bill.
-
If your financial aid is more than your charges, you will see a negative number in the "Amount Due" section of the bill. This is the amount of your expected refund. Your financial aid will be processed by the Student Financial Services Office and most refunds are available by the third week of the second summer session. You will be notified via your LHUP e-mail address when your refund has been processed. The check will be ready in approximately 5 business days from this notification.
If the bill is not paid by the due date, a late fee of $50.00 will be assessed to your account. If a student is enrolled for more then one summer session and does not pay each bill by the deadline date, he or she does face the risk of obtaining a late fee for each session that is delinquent. A hold will also be applied to the account which will prevent registration, receiving a diploma, or receiving transcripts.The balance must be paid in full before the hold will be removed from your account. If your balance is not paid by the end of the summer sessions, any classes scheduled for the Fall 2011 semester will be cancelled.
Please remember that student bills will be sent for any of the following reasons:
-
the beginning of each summer session
-
registration change
-
a balance remaining on the student account after the start of the session
-
the amount of financial aid disbursed to your student account is different than the amount expected
Although new bills will be sent for each session, please note that any remaining balance from the first summer session will be reflected on a subsequent summer session bill. If a student makes a change to his/ her account after the session has initiated, it is the student's responsiblity to obtain a copy of the bill and make any payments necessary at that time.
