Be sure you've got your fall bill covered––check to make sure all of your financial aid to-do items are complete before Aug. 15.

Financial aid will apply toward the bill the Monday before the first day of classes (Aug. 15 for fall) if all to-do items are complete. You may see tuition charges on your bill already, but things such as housing and other charges may not be available yet. You'll be able to view your entire fall bill by mid-August, but it's not due until Sept. 5.
