Financial Aid & Other Deferments

A financial aid deferment is an extension granted to students for payment of tuition and fees when a student has anticipated financial aid displayed on their account and has completed all financial aid documentation and processing requirements to receive aid. Please see the Financial Aid website for more information about deferments. If the total amount of tuition and fees exceeds the amount of financial aid received, the difference must be paid by the due date posted on the student’s fee invoice to avoid any late fees. Financial aid deferments are granted after the add deadline on the academic calendar for each term. Students should monitor their accounts the week after the add deadline to confirm that they have received a financial aid deferment. Students whose financial aid posts as anticipated aid after the fee payment deadline will not receive a deferment.

Students who have a third-party sponsorship letter or billing authorization may be eligible for tuition deferment. Students must submit this documentation to Student Account Services before the fee payment deadline each term.  Please see the Florida Prepaid and Third Party Sponsorship page for more information.

Please keep in mind that the student is ultimately responsible for payment of any tuition and fees that are not paid by the third-party sponsor or other sources. A student may incur late fees and may be placed on financial hold until it is paid.
