      Parent Plus Credit Balance Hold Authorization Form

      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.

      Plus Loan funds to a student’s account and the total amount of those funds exceed the student’s
      allowable charges.

      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

      Financial Aid Waivers

      Title IV Waiver

      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".

      Connecticut General Statutes (CGS) Tuition Waivers

      The below waivers are processed for qualifying students in compliance with CGS Section 10a-105 (formerly Sec.10-119a).  Please note, these waivers are specifically intended to waive tuition. Certain graduate degree and certificate programs do not charge standard tuition and instead are billed as program fees.  For programs that do not charge standard tuition, the amount waived is based upon the in-state per credit graduate tuition rate and may not cover the full cost of the semester program fees.  Additionally, not all waivers qualify for fee-based programs. Please contact studentbilling@uconn.edu for additional questions.

      National Guard Tuition Waiver

      National Guard Tuition Waivers for Storrs students will be processed by the Office of Veterans Affairs and Military Programs located in Hawley Armory (north tower).

      The National Guard should send individual sealed forms that certify the student will receive the waiver to the Office of Veterans Affairs and Military Programs.

      Veteran Tuition Waiver

      The veteran must complete paperwork with the Office of Veterans Affairs (located in Hawley Armory - north tower) to qualify for the waiver. Please visit the Veteran's Affairs website.

      September 11th Tuition Waiver

Students can complete their waiver applications by contacting the Office of Veteran Affairs and Military Programs: (860) 486-2442 or veterans@uconn.edu

      Over 62 Waiver

      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, with the exception of specific cohort programs.  The waiver is intended for tuition only, and therefore some fee based programs may not qualify for this waiver. The senior tuition waiver does not apply to students in graduate certificate programs.  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. Please contact studentbilling@uconn.edu for any questions. For registration inquiries, please contact the Office of the Registrar.

      Employee Tuition Waivers

      Employee 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.
