Billing Information
Contact the Student Payment Center, 412-624-7520, with billing questions.
Invoice Payment
Students and their Authorized Users will be notified twice before each due date if there is a balance due on the student account. Electronic invoices (eBills) are posted on the student’s account after registration for classes, on or about the 20th of every month, and are due on the 17th of the next month. The University may also place a financial hold on overdue accounts.
Tuition Adjustments
Add/Drop
Students who drop courses by the term’s deadline for add/drop may have their tuition for the term adjusted if they are part-time students, or if the drop changes their status from full-time to part-time.
Resignation
If you are considering resigning for the term (academic withdrawal from all of your classes), please discuss your situation with your academic advisor, a Financial Aid counselor, or a staff member in the Office of Student Appeals to be certain you understand all of your options and obligations. The effective date of your resignation determines if you are eligible for an adjustment in the tuition and fees you were charged for the term. The effective date of your resignation will normally be the date you notify the University by one of the methods described below. You are responsible for satisfying all financial obligations accumulated until the time you officially resign. The timing of your resignation also has an impact on how grades are recorded on your transcript. The last day to resign from a term is when sixty percent of the term has passed.
For more information regarding Resignation, please refer to policies AC 67 Termination of Registration and Title IV Refunds. Please visit https://www.payments.pitt.edu/tuition-fees/tuition-adjustments for detailed instructions.
Transition to Active Duty
If you are registered and your military unit has been called to active duty:
Once you have a copy of your orders, contact Student Appeals at:
Phone: (412) 624-7668 during business hours.
or
Phone: (412) 624-7585 after business hours, where you will be prompted to leave information. Student Appeals staff will contact you the following business day.
We will do whatever is required to have students called to active military duty transition out of the University as expeditiously as possible. In most cases, we will be able to arrange for you to drop the term’s registration so you will owe no tuition for the term and receive no grades. There will be exceptions to this, depending on personal and/or financial reasons. We will discuss all options available to you before making any final decisions.
Title IV Refund Policy
Adjustments to Title IV financial aid resulting from official resignation are based on the effective date of resignation and in accordance with the federally mandated calculation.
The calculation is based on the period of enrollment completed. That percentage is computed by dividing the total number of calendar days in the term into the number of calendar days completed, as of the date of student notification. The percentage of Title IV assistance to which the student is entitled (has “earned”) is equal to this percentage of the term completed, up to 60%. If the resignation occurs after 60% of the term is completed, the percentage is equal to 100%.
The amount of Title IV aid which must be returned is based on the percentage of “unearned” aid. That percentage is computed by subtracting earned aid from 100%. The University is required to return the lesser of 1) the unearned aid percentage applied to institutional charges or 2) the unearned aid percentage applied to the total Title IV aid received.
The student is required to return the difference between the amount of unearned aid and the amount returned by the University. If the student (or parents in the case of PLUS loans) is required to return a portion or all of their loan proceeds, the calculated amount is to be repaid according to the loan’s terms. Students must return only half the amount of grant funds calculated.
Funds are returned to the following Title IV sources in order of priority:
- Unsubsidized Federal Direct Loans
- Subsidized Federal Direct Loans
- Federal Graduate PLUS Loans
- Federal Direct PLUS Loans
- Federal Pell Grants
- Iraq and Afghanistan Service Grants
- Federal SEOG
- Teach Grant
- Other Title IV assistance for which a return of funds is required
- Other Federal, state, private, or institutional financial assistance
- Students
Installment Payments
Under some circumstances, students may be approved for three- or four-installment payments in the fall or spring term. Contact the Student Payment Center for more information, including dates of payments.
All students should enroll for direct deposit as refunds and financial aid are awarded through eRefunds.
They should also update their authorized users (parents, spouses, and others) so that they can have access to their student account.
