for which the student is registered. Students enrolled

Registration Agreement
Students who register for courses agree to pay tuition
and fees to the University according to the payment policies
and schedules adopted by the Board of Trustees. If a student
wishes to cancel registration, and thus avoid payment of
tuition and fee charges, the student must do so by 5:00
p.m. of the first day of instruction.
Unauthorized use of U of I computerized systems, data,
or resources; unauthorized use of another individual's
identification, account, or password; or an attempt to
gain unauthorized access is prohibited by University policy
and may constitute a violation of Illinois state law. Access
to the student registration system will be terminated if
you are found to be making excessive unsuccessful registration
attempts.
Tuition and Fees
Charges are assessed on the basis of the student's level
(undergraduate, graduate, or professional) and curriculum
of enrollment; classification as resident or nonresident
of Illinois; and credit range as determined by the total
number of semester hours for which the student is registered.
A full-time student is one who is registered for 12 or
more semester hours of credit.
The Service Fee supports operation of certain campus facilities
such as the Illini Union, Turner Student Services Building,
Assembly Hall, and the Intramural Physical Education Building.
The Health Insurance Fee covers the cost of the University
Student Health Insurance Program that provides worldwide
hospital, medical, and surgical insurance coverage. The
Health Service Fee provides health care and limited prescription
service at the campus McKinley Health Center and helps
support the Counseling Center. The General Fee supports
certain fixed costs of campus fee-supported buildings such
as the Assembly Hall and the Illini Union. The Transportation
Fee finances a campus and community transportation plan
for students.
Students are also assessed:
- $6 each semester for SEAL (Students for Equal Access to
Learning) to supplement existing financial aid for needy
students. A refund is available upon request during the
seventh week of instruction in a semester for students
not desiring to participate.
- $1 each semester for CP (Cultural Programming Fee) to
support cultural programming sponsored by the African American
Cultural Program, La Casa Cultural Latina, and the Native
American House. A refund is available upon request during
the sixth week of instruction.
- $10 each semester and summer session for SORF (Student
Organization Resource Fee) to help support the Student
Legal Service and the programs and services of registered
student organizations. Refunds are available upon request
during the sixth week of instruction in a semester and
summer session.
- $2 CET (Cleaner Energy Technologies Fee). A fee used
to purchase cleaner energy technologies for campus including
solar, wind, hydrogen and geothermal projects, energy efficiency
purchases, and the purchase of renewable energy from non-university
producers.
- $5 each semester and $3 for summer term 2 to support productions
at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts (KCPA).
Refunds are available upon request during the fifth week
of instruction for fall and spring. No refunds are available
during the summer session.
Students enrolling at less than one-half time (less than
6 hours) are not assessed the service fee; the McKinley
Health Center fee; the transportation fee; the KCPA fee;
or the SEAL, SORF, CET, or CP fees and are not eligible
to use the services supported by these fees. Such students
may elect to purchase one or more of the services directly
from the provider.
Late Registration
Students who register after the first day of instruction
in any semester, including University staff and persons
who submitted admission applications too late to be processed
before the first day of instruction, must pay a Late Registration
Fine of $15 (amount subject to change). (This fine is not
covered by scholarships or tuition waivers. It may be waived
under exceptional circumstances upon petition to the Office
of Admissions and Records. The petition form is available
from the Records Services Center, 901 West Illinois Street.)

Residence Classification for Admission and Tuition
Assessment
The residence classification of applicants for admission
is determined on the basis of the information given on
their applications and other credentials. Eligibility for
admission to the University is determined and tuition is
assessed in accordance with this decision.
Persons who take exception to the residence status assigned
to them should refer to Appendix B.
Payment Requirement
Tuition and fees assessed for any semester, term, or summer
session are due and payable in full by the deadline indicated
on the Student Accounts Receivable Statement. The privilege
of paying these charges by installment may be granted by
the Office of Student Accounts and Cashiers (see next section).
A delinquent service charge of 1.375percent per month,
or $2 per month, whichever is greater, is added to delinquent
student accounts. The delinquent service charge is applied
to all items charged to the student account and for which
payment is delinquent.
Installment Plan for Paying Tuition, Fees, and Housing
Charges
Students enrolled on campus may pay tuition and fees, single-student
residence hall charges, and flight instruction fees on
an installment plan. This plan is not available to students
registered in extramural, correspondence, and four-week
summer term courses, or to students for whom this privilege
has been denied.
Under the installment plan, semester charges are collected
in three installments. The first is payable during the
first month of instruction, and the remaining ones are
payable in each of the two following months. Approximately
one-half of the summer term 2 charges must be paid during
the first month of instruction with the remainder due during
the following month. There is a finance charge of 1.5 percent
of the total amount deferred, or $2, whichever is greater,
when charges are paid in installments (amount subject to
change).
Students who pay their accounts on the installment plan
and later withdraw from the University, or reduce their
registration to a lower credit range after the established
refund deadline date, are liable for the full amount of
tuition and fees assessed.
Installment payments are delinquent on the first day of
the month after the date that payment is due. A delinquent
service charge of 1.375 percent per month, or $2 per month,
whichever is greater, is added to delinquent accounts (amount
subject to change). The delinquent service charge is applied
to all items charged to the student account and for which
payment is delinquent.
Students who are in debt to the University at the end of
any academic term may not be permitted to register in the
University again. They are not entitled to receive diplomas
or official statements or transcripts of credits until
either the indebtedness has been paid or suitable arrangements
for payment have been made, unless either there is a pending
bankruptcy petition of the student seeking a discharge
of all such indebtedness or all such indebtedness has been
discharged.
