    From the Charges Due tab, to determine out how much you should pay, subtract your total pending aid for the semester from the charges.

    For the example shown:
         Total charges: $7,701.15
         Total pending aid: $2,227.00 + $990.00 = $3,217.00
         Total due: $4,484.15 on or before 10/29/18

    Note: Pending financial aid is reflected on a bill prior to the start of a semester and is based on assumed enrollment. Generally, aid is based on a fulltime enrollment unless the student has requested a part-time award or has a history of attending part time. Financial aid is adjusted to match actual enrollment prior to the start of a semester and when enrollment is official at the end of add/drop each semester. Prior to a semester, students may contact the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office to request a part-time award.
