Enid Campus Business Office
The Business Office provides a variety of services
to students including collection of tuition and fees. All student
financial assistance and applied fee waivers and scholarships are disbursed
through the cashiers on the Alva, Enid and Woodward campuses.
External scholarship payments for Alva and Woodward students are coordinated on
the Alva campus; personnel on the Enid campus coordinate Enid students' external
scholarships.

credits on your student account. Credit cards accepted are Visa,

A monthly payment plan is also available through Educational Data

Payment is due on the first day
of classes each semester. If a student has a signed financial aid
award letter, payment may be deferred until after disbursement of grants, loans
and scholarships. Students without a signed award letter are encouraged to
make payment to avoid late fees. Financial aid, awarded and paid after a
student has personally paid charges, will be refunded to the student. A 5%
late fee will be assessed to all unpaid tuition and fees balances in October,
November and December in the fall semester and March, April and May in the
spring semester. Late fees are assessed in June and July for the summer
semester.
Financial aid and scholarship funds are applied to outstanding charges with the
student being responsible for the remaining balance.
Statements
Paper bills/statements will no longer be mailed starting with the Spring
2006 semester. Students can access their accounts at any time by using
their SIS login with the Student ID and NWOSU PIN number at
www.nwosu.edu. Clicking on the Student
Information and Review/Pay Account links will provide a summary of charges and
credits on your student account.
Fees
The International Student Fee covers the administrative services
rendered in processing, maintaining, and storing various immigration papers.
Only international students are required to pay this fee.
The Student Activity Fee supports activities designed to provide the
students with extracurricular educational, cultural and recreational
opportunities.
The Technology and Library Services Fee provides financial support for
NWOSU computer labs, ITV studios, computer supplies, lab monitors, and library
materials.
The Facility Fee provides funding to support various facilities used by
all three campuses.
External Scholarships
The Office of the Bursar must be notified about external scholarships or
third-party payments each semester. Some third-party payments required a
bill from the Office of the Bursar before they will make payment on the
student's account. In such cases, the student should provide a letter from
the sponsor requesting us to bill them. If for any reason the University
does not receive payment, the student will be responsible for the charges.
It is the student's responsibility to check with the Office of the Bursar to
verify the remaining balance owed.
Refunds
The refund policies listed below describe the financial obligation of the
student who withdraw from classes after the official start date.
According to the Oklahoma State Regents' refund policy, changes in schedules and
complete withdrawals from the institution during the defined add/drop period
(first ten days of classes in the Fall and Spring semester, first four days of
classes in the summer session) will result in full charges for courses added and
full credit for courses dropped. No refund will be made after the add/drop
period for the session except as stipulated below for Title IV recipients.
All Title IV Aid recipients and the university will be required to return to the
federal aid programs the amount of aid received that was in excess of the aid
earned for the time period the student remained enrolled.
The percentage of the semester completed is the percentage of aid earned.
This is calculated by the number of days the student attended divided by the
number of days in the enrollment period. For example, if a student
withdrew in the fourth week of a sixteen week period, the student would have
earned only 25% of the aid received (4/16=0.25).
Students who remain enrolled through at least 60% of the payment period
(semester) are considered to have earned 100% of the aid received and will not
owe a repayment of Federal Title IV funds.
If NWOSU returns funds to the Title IV aid programs, it could result in the
student owing NWOSU charges that were originally paid at the time of
disbursement. Students may also be required to return funds released to
them for personal expenses.
Financial Aid Disbursements
The Bursar/Business Office on all three campuses disburses financial aid.
At the time funds are disbursed to the student, all enrollment fees, tuition,
and housing will be deducted. Scholarships awarded by NWOSU will be
applied to student accounts after the drop/add period. Student
loans are disbursed the week following the drop/add period. Pell grants
should be disbursed the week following the first loan disbursements. Each
recipient must check with the Business Office to determine the application of
these funds. It is the student's responsibility to verify that financial
aid has been applied to their account prior to the deadlines to avoid late fees.
