Explanation of Fees

Student Malpractice Insurance

A group insurance policy is purchased and provided by the University of New England for those students involved in clinical training rotations for $1,000,000/$3,000,000.

General Services Fee

This mandatory fee is billed to graduate students and provides the following services:

  • Graduation activities, including the cost of the banquet, speakers, and diplomas.
  • Student Senate (Government) activities, including support for clubs, programs, cultural events, etc.
  • Orientation activities.
  • Student Health Services for high-quality healthcare services.
  • Access to University facilities: Finley Recreation Center featuring a gymnasium, fitness center, intramurals, recreation, and wellness programs, and/or access to Campus Center featuring a gymnasium, running track, pool, fitness center with racquetball courts, snack bar, and bookstore.
  • Athletic events, including intramural programs and all intercollegiate home games.

Health Insurance

Graduate students are required to enroll in UNE's Student Medical Insurance Plan unless proof of comparable insurance can be demonstrated. Please refer to the Health Insurance Brochure for additional information.

Parking Fee

Students, faculty, and professional staff wishing to park a vehicle on campus must purchase a parking permit from www.thepermitstore.com. Enter your destination as the University of New England. Permit prices vary. Failure to register a vehicle will result in a fine and having your vehicle towed from campus.

Payment Information

Overpayments

The University is required to refund overpayments to students resulting from Title IV Financial Aid payments in accordance with Federal Regulations. Students may elect to have their overpayment directly deposited into a checking or savings account.

Payment Options

Students may pay the college charges as they fall due each semester or in accordance with UNE's Monthly Payment Plan offered through TouchNet.

The payment dates in the UNE-sponsored payment plans cannot be deferred for the convenience of students using student loans, or other tuition payment programs. Both long and short-term financial arrangements should be made far enough in advance to ensure payment on the required dates. Special problems or emergencies can be discussed with the Student Financial Services Center at any time.

Option I: Payment by Semester

Approximately six weeks before the start of a semester, bills will be sent for the tuition, room and board, and fees. Payment of this bill is due by the due date listed on the bill, which will typically be prior to the start of the semester. The payment due is the total of all the semester charges less any previous payments or financial aid credits.

Option II: Tuition Payment Plan

UNE offers students an interest-free tuition payment plan. These plans are offered on a per semester basis and can be used to break the semester balance owed into smaller monthly installments. There is a $25 per semester fee charged any semester a student enrolls in the payment plan. View additional information about payment plans

In addition to these options for payment, UNE accepts MasterCard, VISA, and Discover.

Late Payment Charge

The balance due each semester will be considered overdue if not paid by the specified date, and any unpaid balance will be subject to a late charge of 12% per annum or 1% per month. Students with a past due balance on their account will have a hold placed on their account, which will prevent adding enrollment for future semesters.

Course Withdrawal Tuition Refund Policy

Course changes for matriculated students are allowed during the add/drop period during the fall and spring semesters. After the add/drop period, no refunds are made for course withdrawals.

University Withdrawal

Matriculated students who intend to withdraw from the University must complete official forms available from the program director, Student Affairs Office, or the Registrar’s Office on either campus. Documentation must be signed by the appropriate Academic Dean. Student responsibilities include a) knowledge of the University's policies regarding refund of tuition and/or fees as stated in this catalog; b) return of University identification (ID) card to the Office of Student Affairs; c) return of any University keys to the appropriate departments. The University reserves the right to withhold the issuance of refunds and transcripts until the process has been completed. Following withdrawal, any student wishing to re-enroll at the University of New England must apply through the Office of Admissions.

For purposes of computing refunds, the date of withdrawal recorded by the Academic Dean's office upon receipt of the withdrawal notice from the student shall be considered official and will be used to compute refunds, if any, due to the student.

Loan/Grant/Scholarship Adjustments

Adjustments to scholarships, grants, and loan programs will be made in accordance with respective program regulations and University policy before a refund to the student is calculated. In cases where a refund may be due and the student has received funds through the Guaranteed Student Loan Program, it is our policy to refund those funds directly to the bank that made the loan. Refunds will not be made in the case of absence, dismissal, or suspension.

Other Fees

After registration, there shall be no refund of fees.

Refunds for Maryland Residents

Maryland

University of New England's Refund Policy follows the Federal Return of Title IV Aid Refund Policy for Maryland residents. If a student withdraws from UNE prior to the 60% point in the semester (based on calendar days from the first day of the semester through the last scheduled day of the semester), eligible charges due or paid will be refunded on a pro rata basis within 40 days of termination date. Some fees are non- refundable, and, therefore, not pro-rated. Fees not refunded are General Service (one-time fee), Application (one-time fee), and Technology (charged each semester fee). Financial aid awarded (if any) will be returned to the federal, state, and the University of New England programs on a pro rata basis. Outside scholarship or non-federal loan assistance will not be returned unless specifically requested by the provider. After the 60% point in the semester, financial aid will not be reduced for any withdrawal, nor will any refund be granted.

This policy applies to all university withdrawals, whether student initiated or administrative withdrawals. Students should note that withdrawal may or may not result in an actual refund of money to the student.

Circumstances may occur in which the student still owes money to the University even after the appropriate withdrawal credit.

Important Notes

  1. Students should expect annual increases in the cost of attending UNE since the University is subject to the same inflationary pressures that affect the rest of society.
  2. The Board of Trustees reserves the right to make changes in tuition and fees at any time.
  3. For their own protection while at the University, it is recommended that students carry their local checking accounts to provide funds for incidental expenses and emergencies.
  4. The University offers direct deposit to its students. Students with credit balances can have the excess funds directly deposited in the bank of their choice. Students can enroll in direct deposit through Compass.
  5. The University will not be responsible for the loss of property on or off campus although it strives to safeguard students' property on campus.
  6. Students are expected to pay for textbooks at the beginning of the semester. Books, supplies, and other items available at the University Bookstore may be paid for with cash, check, Master Card, VISA, and Discover.
  7. A student in the military reserves will be granted a full leave of absence tuition credit should the student be called to active duty while attending courses during any given semester.
