important installment plan information

when you are registered for classes you are registered for the entire academic year and your total tuition and fees are due by the time your school year begins. for students receiving financial aid this can create a hardship since your financial aid must be disbursed in two payments, the first disbursement at the beginning of the year and the second disbursement after the midpoint of the year has passed (january).

therefore, students, particularly those receiving financial aid, should consider paying tuition and fees by the installment plan. this option allows students to pay tuition and fees in up to four payments. the first two payments would be made during the first half of the year and the last two payments would be made during the second half of the year.

students receiving financial aid would have the first two payments deducted from their financial aid disbursement scheduled for the first half of the year and the last two payments deducted from their financial aid disbursement scheduled for the second half of the year.

there is a one-time charge of $15.00 to enroll. a late fee of $10.00 can be assessed to any payment made after the due date.

no student is ever automatically placed on the installment plan, you must initiate this process via e-connect. it is an annual enrollment process and is not carried over from one year to the next.

Hello everyone,

I just happened to stumble upon this amazing website. I have been accepted to UTMB SON and will begin Spring 2010. I have been trying to catch up will all of your comments and I love the spirit you each bring. I look forward to meeting all of you on Jan 5th. I myself have been trying to work down my "Thing-to-do" list. Can anyone tell me what they are doing for Health Ins, are you applying to the health plan provided by UTMB or is it cheaper to get from elsewhere?

I am soo excited!!!

Welcome Acrugrat,

Ms. Sealy gave you a great link. The cost for student health insurance through UTMB is only $92/month. If you have a spouse or children, you can add them as well. I know the spouse payment is $267/month.

I did call United Healthcare to find out when to sign up. They said we can sign up as soon as we start classes. The coverage starts the day they receive the premium.

Hope that helps,

Deb.

Dang... This sucks! I had an appointment to get my shots finalized, but left my house too late and just had to reschedule :-(. At least they were really nice about it...

i just signed up with my jobs aetna insurance...the deadline for changing program details was sunday. i'm paying $87 a month for full coverage.

Oh no ms sealy! Try to talk them out of it! Lol

Heh, I'm paying $85 a WEEK, but with two kiddoes and a husband on the transplant list I think I'm doing OK.

Hi Vikie22. Do you already have a place or you're looking for one? I am looking at the apartments around UTMB and they seem good deals with a roommate.
