view our full cost of attendance information
The Tuition and Billing Services is responsible for Student Accounts. The Department is responsible for the collection of money, student account billing, Financial Aid Refund Disbursements and Collections. The Department establishes and maintains proper internal controls and participates in program reviews and audits. Our area of responsibility includes, Florida Prepaid Program, State Mandated Waivers, Third Party Billing, Collections, and Fee Petitions.
By administering the Florida Prepaid Program, we will automatically bill Florida Prepaid account for any student enrolled as of the last day to add/drop of each semester. We also accept authorizations and vouchers for students who are sponsored by an employer, organization or other third party agency. Third party students must qualify under the terms set forth under the Third Party Billing letter. Monthly electronic notifications via FAU email will be sent to currently enrolled students for outstanding financial obligations.
Any student with an outstanding balance more than 90 days past due will be assessed collections charges in addition to the past due balance and his/her student account will be forwarded to a collection agency. Lastly, a student may complete a Fee Petition Form for dropping a course or for complete withdrawal from a semester due to exceptional circumstance.
