SPECIAL NOTES REGARDING TUITION & FEES:
Non-Resident Surcharge
and Selective Service Registration
If you are a male between the ages of 18-26, you must report your
selective service number to the Office of the University Registrar, 320 Lincoln
Tower, 1800 Cannon Drive, 292-9330, or non-resident fees will be assessed,
in compliance with state law. If needed, you may obtain your selective service
number by calling (847) 688-6888 or at http://www.sss.gov.
Regional Campus
versus Main Campus Fees
Effective Winter Quarter 2003, the Office of the University Registrar
began adjusting official campus of enrollment for students based upon where
the majority of the classes are taken. Students will be billed based on the
campus where the student is registered for the majority of hours. For students
who have been registered through a regional campus, they are only switched
to Columbus if they meet the selective admission criteria of 2.0 GPA with
30 cumulative hours (to be increased to 45 hours in Autumn 2003). Students
who are taking half at a regional and half at the main campus will remain
enrolled at the original campus. For details regarding the university policy,
"click
here" to visit the web site.
Non-Resident Fees
If you have any questions regarding the non-resident fee or if you need information
regarding your eligibility to be classified as an Ohio resident for tuition
surcharge purposes, immediately contact the Office of the University Registrar
292-9330, 320 Lincoln Tower, 1800 Cannon Drive, Columbus, OH, 43210. Please
note that students are expected to make full payment (including non-resident
fees) by their appropriate payment due date. Payment deadlines may not be waived
or extended while a student’s residency status is under review. You may
also click on this link to be taken to the Registrar's web site on Ohio
Residency for Tuition Purposes.

Tuition Option
Payment Plan (T.O.P.P.)
T.O.P.P. is a payment plan that allows you or your family to pay tuition and other University expenses in two monthly installments per quarter without interest charges. An enrollment fee of $35.00 will enroll you in the program for the entire academic year (Autumn through Summer). NOTE: You must reapply each year.
You may enroll in T.O.P.P. by sending in the payment for the T.O.P.P. amount indicated on your statement of account. Be sure to enroll in T.O.P.P. by the university deadline to avoid late penalty fees. Submit future T.O.P.P. payments by the appropriate T.O.P.P. deadlines to avoid late payment penalties.

Your enclosed Statement of Account shows aid from University, state, federal
and private financial aid programs. The date listed next to each financial
aid credit indicates the date that funds from that program will actually be
available. Some or all of these dates may be later than the Due Date on your
Statement of Account. The amount indicated in the "Pay This Amount"
box takes into consideration financial aid, including those with dates later
than the Due Date. If you accepted aid after the printing of your Statement
of Account, note it and deduct it from your Balance Due.
YOU MUST PAY THE AMOUNT INDICATED IN THE BOX BY THE "DUE DATE" NOTED
If you have a zero or credit balance in the "Pay This Amount" box, your registration is automatically confirmed (you are considered enrolled for Spring 2005). If you are not planning to attend Spring 2005, please call your college office.
Balances which exceed charges (cash due you) will be available for disbursement after the latest financial aid credit date.

FINANCIAL AID
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
History has shown that during this time of year the Office of Student Financial
Aid deals with a high volume of students, and it is often difficult for students
to reach us. Because of this problem, we encourage you to follow the guidelines
that appear below.
Below is a list of questions that you might experience with your financial aid. Don't panic! The problems that appear below are resolvable and instructions are provided about what you should do.

the problem at this web site, call the Office of Student Financial Aid at
292-0300 or call your regional campus or ATI representative.

to secure this loan. The Plus Loan Form can be downloaded from our web page

4. As a final option, seek permission directly from the instructor or department office.
IF YOU ARE PERMITTED

Web registration is now open through April 1, 2005 to add and through April
15 to drop a class during the following hours:
Monday
- Friday 6:30am - 1:30am
Saturday 6:30am - Midnight
Sunday 11:00 a.m. - 1:30am
Prepare before you use register for classes on the web. Choose an alternative when adding classes in case your first choice is not available. You also have the option of going on an electronic wait-list for a closed course. See the section regarding "Wait-Listing" below. You may also wish to investigate class availability on regional campuses to fulfill your course requirements. Information is also available at http://www.ureg.ohio-state.edu.
IF YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED
TO USE WEB REGISTRATION: Contact your college office academic advisor. You may
be required to see an advisor before scheduling, you may have a hold, or course
permission may be required.
FEE INCREASES DUE TO SCHEDULE ADJUSTMENTS:
Schedule
adjustments may result in a fee reassessment. The web will inform
you of the amount due and the due date. Always check your statement of account
after making schedule changes. Also note the DUE DATE -- You are responsible
for paying fees on time!
See the Master Schedule of Classes Bulletin on the web for additional wait-list information. Here are some important reminders about the system:
1. Students are processed
from a wait-list on a "first-on, first-off" basis, whenever there
is a course drop, a course limit increase, or new sections are added.
2. Any open seat must fit into your existing schedule to get processed. If
you need to block certain times during the day (e.g. when you work) from being
available for a wait-listed course, use "Free Time." See the Master
Schedule on the web for details.
3. Students should find out whether or not they have been scheduled from the
wait-list or their current position on a wait-list using the web.
4. Your registration into any section of a wait-listed course automatically
removes your wait-list entry.
5. The system is course-based, not section-based.
6. If you decide not to take a course for which you are wait-listed, use the
web to drop your wait-list request. Otherwise, you may still get scheduled
into the course.
Visit
the web site every few days before classes begin to check your wait-list status,
and every day once classes begin.
You may want to attend the course the first several days of the quarter in case
you get scheduled off the wait-list.

FIRST DAY OF CLASSES:

have already paid fees, do not stop payment on your check as a way to initiate
your withdrawal.
