-
Paid in Full: Your remaining balance is $0
-
Financial Aid: Your aid is finalized and covers your entire balance.
-
Payment Plan: You are actively enrolled in an approved payment plan.
-
Third Party Funding: You have approved funding from an outside organization that covers your full balance.

Why These Dates Matter
- The Priority Date: Missing this doesn't mean you lose aid, but your money might not be ready in time for your bill or books. You may have to pay out-of-pocket while waiting for your financial aid to finalize.
- The Payment Due Date: Missing this triggers a $50 late fee and the risk of being dropped from your classes or getting a registration hold.
- Second Session: These deadlines include second-session online courses.
