TUITION AND BILLING SERVICES
view our full cost of attendance information
Tuition and Billing Services manages Student Accounts, including tuition and fee billing, payments, Financial Aid refund disbursements, Florida Prepaid, state-mandated waivers, third-party billing, and Fee Petitions. The Department establishes and maintains proper internal controls and participates in program reviews and audits. By administering the Florida Prepaid Program, we will automatically bill Florida Prepaid account for any student enrolled as of the last day to add/drop of each semester. We also accept authorizations and vouchers for students who are sponsored by an employer, organization or other third party agency. Third party students must qualify under the terms set forth under the Third Party Billing letter. Monthly electronic notifications via FAU email will be sent to currently enrolled students for outstanding financial obligations.
Any student with an outstanding balance more than 90 days past due will incur collections charges in addition to the past due balance, and his/her student account will be forwarded to a collection agency. Lastly, a student may complete a Fee Petition for course(s) dropped after the published deadline if drop was due to exceptional circumstance(s).
