USF 2001-2002 Undergraduate Catalog - Pages 21 - 23
The levels of the Activity and Service Fee, the Health Fee, and the Athletic fee are determined on each campus by a student fee committee appointed by the President of the University and the Student Government President. The committee includes USF faculty and students with the majority of the committee being students. The fees may be reviewed on a yearly basis.
The following fee schedule applies to all USF students with the exception of those in the Bachelor of Independent Studies, External Degree Program. For information on the BIS Program fees see paragraph 2b below.
Registration fees are assessed in accordance with Board of Regent rules. All fees are subject to change without prior notice. The University will make every effort to advertise any such changes if they occur.
Schedule/Fee Statements are no longer mailed. Tuition is due by the fifth day of each term. To find out the amount of the total tuition due (the amount will not reflect any payments made on the account), students can bring a photo ID to the Registration HelpDesk located in the Registrar's Lobby, SVC 1034, and request a Registration Confirmation which will reflect total tuition and fees.
The student is responsible for paying fees in full by the appropriate due date stated in the particular term's "Schedule of Classes." Failure to do so may result in cancellation of the student's registration. Fees paid by mail must be postmarked by the post office, not office meter stamped, on or before the fifth day of the term. Checks are payable to USF.
To avoid a $50.00 late payment fee, all tuition fees must be paid or postmarked by the U.S. Post Office, not office metered, by the fifth day of the term. The University cannot be responsible for lost or misdirected U.S. Postal mail. A student whose registration has been cancelled may request registration reinstatement through the fourth week of class for the academic term. Upon approval for reinstatement, all fees and other debts owed to the University must be paid in full by cash, money order, or cashier's check before reinstatement will be affected.
Tuition Fees are estimated only/subject to change.
Tuition Fees are assessed by course level, not student classification.

Students enrolling for off-campus (Continuing Education) courses will be assessed fees according to the fee structure "a" above. Continuing Education courses are designated by the "700 series" section number. The "Schedule of Classes," which is printed each semester, should be used as a reference for updated information.
All students who initiate (i.e., those students who have not enrolled for any courses during early or regular registration) their registration during the late registration period will be automatically assessed a $100.00 late registration fee.
Upon satisfaction of eligibility criteria, financial aid awards will be credited to student accounts after the drop/add period is over. Monies in excess of charges will be mailed to students' local addresses.
Students not on an authorized deferred payment of fees and who have not paid their tuition fees in full by a specified day (per "Schedule of Classes") will have their registration for that term cancelled. This means, specifically, that a student will receive no credit for any courses taken during that term.
Individuals who have supervised interns may register for courses during a term by presenting their intern Certificate of Participation.
Prior to July 1, 1997, the Intern Participation Certificate stated that all fees were waived with the exception of the Bond and Trust Fee which was $4.76 per credit hour. Certificates were valid for five years from the date of issuance.
The new Intern Participation Certificate effective July 1, 1997 states that certificate holders are entitled to a waiver of only matriculation fees for a maximum of six (6) credit hours instruction during a single term. Certificates are valid for three years from the date of issuance.
Fees must be paid or postmarked by the U.S. Post Office (not office meter marked) by the fifth day of the term. The University cannot be responsible for lost or misdirected U.S. Postal mail.
The University is currently reviewing options to provide a successor to the former tuition waiver benefit. Please check with Human Resources regarding this benefit.
Students receiving VA benefits who have applied in writing no later than the date specified in the "Schedule of Classes" for the deferment in Veterans Services have until a specified date (see Schedule of Classes) to pay tuition in full.
