If you would like the University of Connecticut to hold your credit balance instead of refunding it to you or your
student, Department of Education regulations require that we obtain written authorization from the parent borrower.
A credit balance occurs when the university credits Federal Student Aid (FSA) Parent Plus Loan funds to a student’s
account and the total amount of those funds exceed the student’s allowable charges.

This is a voluntary authorization and is valid from the date that the school receives it from the parent.
The parent borrower may also cancel at any time and the cancellation likewise takes effect on the date that we
receive it from you. In such cases the funds will be paid to you within 14 calendar days after the university receives
your cancellation request.

If you would like the University of Connecticut to cancel your credit balance authorization hold and
refund you, Department of Education regulations require that we obtain written authorization from the
parent borrower. A credit balance occurs when the university credits Federal Student Aid (FSA) Parent
Plus Loan funds to a student’s account and the total amount of those funds exceed the student’s
allowable charges.

This is a voluntary authorization and is valid from the date that the school receives it from the parent
borrower. This cancellation or modification of the original authorization is not retro-active, it takes
effect on the date that the school receives it from the parent. The funds will be paid directly to the
parent borrower within 14 calendar days after the university receives your request.

The Department of Education has implemented federal regulations that authorize this University to administer Title IV financial aid funds. Title IV funds are financial aid you may receive in your financial aid package from the University and include:

Federal Pell Grant
Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (SEOG)
Federal Perkins Loan
Federal Education Loan Program
Stafford Loan Program-Subsidized and Unsubsidized
Parent Plus Loan
Federal Work Study Program

Federal regulations stipulate that Title IV financial aid funds cannot be applied to your student account until ten (10) days prior to the first day of classes. Federal regulations further require that the University apply your Title IV financial aid funds to ‘allowable charges’, which are tuition, mandatory fees, and room and board charges contracted with the University. The University also allows many departments to assess charges to your student account in order to consolidate billing. Some of these charges might include, and are not limited to, Husky One Card charges, health charges, library charges and parking fines. Federal regulations require the University to obtain your authorization to apply your Title IV financial aid to all charges appearing on your student account, not including finance charges. (Finance charges include, but are not limited to, late fees, returned payment fees, and payment plan enrollment fees.)

Your permission to authorize financial aid to pay for these charges will expedite the settlement of your student account. If authorization is not received prior to the settlement due date, the Title IV financial aid funds will not be applied to all charges. This may result in an outstanding balance on your student account and cause late charges to be assessed.

You are not required to give authorization but if you do; once the authorization is signed, the Secretary of Education considers the initial authorization to continue to be valid for future years. You may cancel the authorization at any time by submitting your request in writing to the UConn Bursar’s Office. The cancellation is not retroactive and will take effect on the date that we receive it from you.

You can create this Title IV Financial Aid Waiver by logging into your Student Administration account. In the Student Center, click the "Bursar Services" tile and select waivers, then "Title IV Waiver".

The State of Connecticut has passed an act (Public Act 02-126) which grants a tuition waiver for those residents of the state of Connecticut who are either dependents or spouses of victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

Tuition Waivers are used for selected courses taken by certain employees defined by collective bargaining agreements and Board of Trustee actions, at any of the University of Connecticut campuses. Tuition waivers ONLY cover tuition or a partial waiver of a standalone credit fee program, which is equivalent to tuition for graduate level courses on space available basis. Waivers cannot be applied to any mandatory fees, books, registration fee, application fees, etc., which the student may incur.

It is the responsibility of the student to adhere to the fee bill and enrollment deadlines set forth by the offices of the Bursar and the Registrar. Tuition benefit administrative deadlines and processes outlined by Human Resources have been put in place to provide time for processing and approval of employee tuition benefit applications as per collective bargaining agreements. Once waiver is approved please allow 4-7 business days for Bursar’s Office to post waiver to account. Please contact the Bursar and/or the Registrar’s offices for enrollment and fee bill questions.

Additional information regarding Collective Bargaining Agreement and Board of Trustee waivers can be found on the Human Resources website at: https://hr.uconn.edu/tuition-benefits/

This waiver pertains to any person 62 years of age or older who has been accepted for admission, provided this person is (1) enrolled in a degree-granting program or, (2) for a person not enrolled in a degree program, provided, at the end of the regular registration period (on or after the first day of classes), there is space available in the course in which the person intends to enroll. Students must be a Connecticut resident and 62 years old prior to the beginning of the term they wish to enroll in. The waiver is only available for fall and spring semesters, and is valid for TUITION ONLY. Residual fees are the responsibility of the student. For any person who receives a tuition waiver and also receives educational reimbursement from an employer, the waiver is reduced by the amount of the educational reimbursement. Some fee based programs may not qualify for this waiver. The senior tuition waiver does not apply to students in graduate certificate programs. Please contact bursar@uconn.edu for any questions.
