As the due date for students’ fall term bills is August 26, and as student e-bills have already begun to be sent, the University is instituting a Priority Deadline of August 19 for SEA (Student Educational Award) forms for the fall 2020 term.
Why the deadline?
-
There are adverse effects for students when SEA forms are submitted late. This deadline will allow Financial Aid sufficient time to process awards to students’ accounts prior to the first cancellation for nonpayment (Aug. 26).
-
The earlier that SEA forms are processed, the better. Students start worrying about balances owed to the University when the first e-bills are issued (July 15).
What this means
-
All SEA forms for Fall 2020 term awards should be submitted by Aug. 19. Please communicate this deadline broadly to all in your departments who are involved with issuing student educational awards, including grant-funded participant stipends.
-
If SEA forms are not processed by this date, students will be at risk of class cancellation for non-payment for the fall term.
