J-term Aid Permission Form

To ensure your J-Term balance is paid and avoid a late fee*, you may request a one-time authorization to use Spring Financial Aid towards your J-term balance. This form must be submitted by January 22, 2026 to be considered.

• Who should complete this form?
  • Any student whose total anticipated Spring Financial Aid (grants, loans, scholarships) is enough to cover the Spring and J-term tuition and fees.
    • You can view your total charges by logging in to SIS, selecting “Account Inquiry” on the left, and selecting the amounts for J-term and Spring
• What does this form do?
  • It grants the institution permission to apply your excess Spring Financial Aid directly to your J-term balance
• What is the benefit?
  • It ensures your J-term balance is covered by your anticipated aid 
  • You will be exempted from the J-term late payment fee.
    • If your aid does not cover the full outstanding balance, you will receive the late fee
    • If you make a personal payment for the difference between your aid and the balance, you can avoid the late fee*. (ex. If your charges are $3,000 and you are expecting $2,000 of financial aid, a $1,000 out of pocket payment and filling out this form will exempt you from the late fee)

*The Billing Office will review accounts after the Spring Financial Aid disbursement and apply a late fee waiver for students who have filled out this form and who meet the above criteria.
