1.	WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY TUITION BILL?
	The annual tuition charge is billed half in the Fall and half in the Spring. Fall semester bills are processed in July and have an August due date; Spring semester bills are processed in November and have a December due date. Bills are available through the web. You will be able to register to view your bills online after we have produced your first billing. The link to access your bill online is: https://bosebill.salliemae.com/NetPay/Templates/332/frameset.html PLEASE NOTE: Freshmen, Graduate students, Part-Time Studies students and Continuing Education students will not receive a paper bill. These students must access their bills using our V-bill service.
2.	DOES VILLANOVA OFFER A BUDGET PAYMENT PLAN?
	YES, if you would like to spread your educational expenses over monthly payments you may want to contact an outside agency, Tuition Management Systems (TMS) 800-722-4867 for additional information about their tuition payment plans.
3.	WILL MY STAFFORD AND/OR PLUS LOANS APPEAR ON MY 1ST BILL?
	YES, your Stafford Loan and/or PLUS Loan will appear as a memo item on the first bill you receive at the beginning of the semester. This memo amount should be deducted from the balance due. Students are encouraged to borrow federal loan funds through an approved IF EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) lender. Funds delivered via EFT will be directly deposited to the students' tuition account. If the student has borrowed through a non-participating EFT lender, he/she will be required to come to the Bursar's Office to endorse the loan check. PLUS loan checks will be sent by the Financial Assistance Office to the parent for endorsement. Federal regulations prohibit the deposit of loan proceeds, either check or EFT, prior to 10 days before the classes start. Please note: A check that is made payable to Villanova University and another party must be endorsed by the other party and will be credited to the student account. If a credit balance exists, we will follow our refund procedures.
4.	IF I RECEIVE OUTSIDE SCHOLARSHIPS, WHAT SHOULD I DO?
	Please send a copy of the scholarship award letter directly to the BURSAR'S OFFICE, Attention: Charlotte Merker. If an invoice is required, please send a copy of your Villanova invoice directly to the scholarship foundation. This should expedite payment of any private scholarship. If the scholarship foundation requires a direct invoice from Villanova University, please send the billing authorization to Charlotte Merker as soon as possible. Please be aware that recipients of private scholarships should note that most outside scholarships are usually mailed directly to the University. These scholarship checks must be in the student's accounts by the first official day of class or a late fee may be incurred. Please note: A check that is made payable to Villanova University and another party must be endorsed by the other party and will be credited to the student account. If a credit balance exists, we will follow our refund procedures.
5.	DO YOU HAVE THIRD PARTY BILLING?
	Yes, the employee/student should provide an authorization form (Tuition Voucher, Letter of Credit, etc) each semester to the Bursar's Office. The Bursar's Office will credit the student's account. This is only a paper credit. The Bursar's Office will send an invoice to the employer. Payment must be made upon receipt or/within 30 days. The Bursar's Office does not wait until the end of the semester for payment.
6.	DOES THE UNIVERSITY CHARGE LATE FEES?
	Yes, payments are required to be paid by the official first day of class. Late charges will be assessed after that time.
