Why does my statement balance not remain the same all semester?

Answer:

  • At the beginning of the semester, the business office provides a statement of your student account. This statement often includes a summary of financial aid awards and charges that we expect for you based on the information we have.  
  • Throughout the semester your aid and charges can change depending on many different variables but most often it changes because of changes to your courses/housing/meal plan, the addition of fines, or the federal government changing the amount of your award.
