DISBURSEMENT OF FINANCIAL AID AWARDS

Students who have Financial Aid and/or Scholarship awards (with the ex-ception of ‘workstudy’) and meet disbursement criteria will have awards disbursed to their student accounts at the start of the semester and every business night thereafter within the term. Enrollment is verified daily and adjustments to financial aid may result based on award criteria. Students who are enrolled but do not plan to attend must officially with-draw from DACC/NMSU. To officially withwith-draw, go to the Registrar’s Office in the Educational Services Building.

It is important to note that federal funds can only be used to pay for in-stitutional charges (instructional charges include tuition/ fees, and room/ board assessments and exclude charges such as bookstore, health center, degree fees, and etc) incurred during the academic year for which the fi-nancial aid is awarded. A maximum amount of $200 can be applied to insti-tutional charges from a previous academic year. Excess financial aid funds that remain after institutional charges have been paid will be refunded to students, which may result in a balance still due to the DACC/NMSU. Students are encouraged to have their disbursements distributed by direct deposit to a checking account. Direct deposit is set up through my.NMSU. edu secure portal by clicking on the direct deposit link underStudent Finan-cial Aid. Check disbursement is through the University Accounts Receivable Office in the Educational Services Building or Community College Business Offices, based on the primary curriculum being sought by the student. Financial aid will not pay for UNIV000/UNIV999 courses, audit courses, and undergraduate repeat courses for which the student has received a “C” or better. Financial Aid might not pay for courses added after the census date, Jan 30, 2015.

Students must notify the Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarship Services of any/all additional resources: scholarships, tuition waivers, sti-pends, WIA, DVR, state or federal program awards, and others which may be received, so as not to jeopardize the financial aid award. All financial aid offers are subject to revision due to changes in policy, law, regulation, errors, or funding. The student is responsible to repay excess funds dis-bursed due to any of these reasons.

LOAN/GRANT REQUIREMENTS AND REPAYMENT

Students receiving loan awards must be enrolled at least halftime and first time borrowers must complete an online Debt Management session at www.nmsu.edu/finaid prior to loan disbursement. Students who receive grants or loans and withdraw or stop attending classes within the first 60% of the semester will be required to repay a portion of aid received, per the Department of Educations return of Title IV regulations.

Students whose financial aid files are incomplete must complete their registrations and make payments according to the University payment plan without assistance of financial aid. Students should visit with the Financial Aid Office to review file status and to make arrangements to complete their files. Financial aid cannot be disbursed until a student’s file is complete. To avoid delays students should complete their financial aid early and accurately. In addition, satisfactory academic progress will be monitored to determine eligibility for financial aid. Satisfactory academic progress includes: maintaining a cumulative grade average of a 2.0 for un-dergraduate students, satisfactory completion of credit hours attempted by maintaining a completion rate of 66.6%; and a maximum time frame to complete degree. Contact the financial aid office for further details.

FINANCIAL AID DISBURSEMENT SCHEDULE

Beginning January 14 All Students

By enrolling in classes at Doña Ana Community College/NMSU, a student makes a financial commitment to pay the tuition and fee charges associ-ated with that enrollment. The enrollment action constitutes a financial obligation between the student and DACC/NMSU and that all proceeds of this agreement will be used for educational purposes and constitute an educational loan pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 523(a) (8).

The following terms and conditions are financial requirements of each student’s education related to their registration for a term at New Mexico State University. The payment of tuition and fees is the obligation of the student. By processing a course registration either via the Web or by sub-mitting a course request card to an academic student registration area, a student acknowledges they have read and agree to the following terms and conditions:

• REGISTRATION CONSTITUTES A FINANCIAL AGREEMENT between you (“Student”) and New Mexico State University (“NMSU”). Tuition, fees and other charges you incur, including but not limited to housing, meal plans, and bookstore charges (“Charges”), shall be added to your student ac-count and are considered a loan for educational benefit.

• YOU ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY. Once you formally register for classes, you assume the responsibility for understanding New Mexico State Uni-versity’s official policies concerning schedule changes, satisfactory aca-demic progress and the financial policies of the University as described in the ‘New Mexico State University Undergraduate Catalog’ or ‘New Mexico State University Graduate Catalog’ for the term of enrollment.

• INSTALLMENT PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS will be automatic with a non-refundable deferred payment fee for any Charges not paid in full within ten (10) business days of the start of the term. For specific date, please check the ‘Schedule of Classes’ for the enrollment term.

• CHARGES MAY BE PREPAID at any time in whole or in part without pre-mium or penalty.

• CHARGES LEFT UNPAID for prior terms will result in disenrollment from your current term courses unless payment arrangements are made with University Accounts Receivable prior to the disenrollment date. For that specific date, check the ‘Schedule of Classes’ for the enrollment term.

• IN THE EVENT THAT YOU BECOME DELINQUENT in paying Charges or de-fault in repaying Charges you will be liable for collection fees and any other costs incurred by New Mexico State to collect any monies due from you.

• STUDENTS WITHDRAWING AFTER THE STATED REFUND DATES remain liable for full tuition and fee charges. Collection costs incurred in the event of delinquency shall be at the expense of the Student.

• NMSU ACCEPTS PAYMENT via student financial aid and third party sponsorship, but the responsibility for payment remains with the stu-dent. It is your responsibility to keep track of your account balance and any funding sources. If financial aid is not granted or if third party spon-sors do not pay within a reasonable period, the student will be required to pay the full amount due.

• IF NMSU PREVAILS IN A LAWSUIT to collect on this financial obligation, Student will pay NMSU’s court costs, collection agency costs, and attor-ney’s fees in an amount the court finds to be reasonable.

• IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK your myNMSU email daily and maintain a current postal address to ensure receipt of all University cor-respondence. Students who are enrolled but choose not to attend must officially withdraw from DACC/NMSU. To officially withdraw, go to the Registration Desk at the DACC East Mesa Campus.

10 Schedule of Classes

IS THERE A PAYMENT PLAN FOR TUITION AND FEES?

By enrolling in classes at New Mexico State University (NMSU), a stu-dent makes a financial commitment to pay the tuition and fee charges associated with that enrollment. The enrollment action constitutes a financial obligation between the student and NMSU and that all pro-ceeds of this agreement will be used for educational purposes and con-stitute an educational loan pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 523(a) (8).

Students withdrawing after the stated refund dates remain liable for full tuition and fee charges. Collection costs incurred in the event of delinquency shall be at the expense of the borrower. Although the University accepts payment via student financial aid and third-party sponsorship, the responsibility for payment remains with the student. If financial aid is not granted or if third-party sponsors do not pay within a reasonable period, the student will have to pay the full amount due. All outstanding charges not paid in full by February 15, will automati-cally be placed on a payment plan and a payment plan fee will be assessed. Outstanding charges will be divided into four equal pay-ments due on February 15; March 15; April 15; and May 15. Any initial registration occurring on or after Jan. 16 also will be assessed a late-registration fee, which is not refundable.

IS FINANCIAL AID AVAILABLE?

The DACC Financial Aid Office offers a wide variety of grants, scholar-ships, and loans. Grants are awarded based on academ ic ability as well as financial need. Students do not necessarily need to be enrolled full time to get aid. For more information, visit the office in DASR 109 or call 527-7696.

WHY DIDN’T I GET THE FULL FINANCIAL AID DISBURSEMENT? Here are some possible reasons: you are repeating a course; you are enrolled for less than half time; you are enrolled in a mini course that hasn’t started yet (students will not receive disbursement for a mini course until the course is in session). Check with the Financial Aid Of-fice to see if you will be receiving additional financial aid funds. WHEN IS THE LAST DAY TO REGISTER?

The last day for continuing students to register for regular full semes-ter classes without paying a late fee is Jan. 14. You may still regissemes-ter for classes between Jan. 15 and Jan. 27, but you will be charged an addi-tional late registration fee. Late fee charges incurred during late regis-tration are not refundable.

MAY SOMEONE ELSE REGISTER FOR ME?

Yes, anyone may register for you. If you are a new or returning stu-dent, you will need to provide the person who is registering for you with a completed admission application and a course request card listing your first and alternate choices. Continuing students need only submit a completed course request card. Include payment of fees. DID I GET THE RIGHT CLASS?

Please review your registration document immediately. If you find any errors in the class codes, class title, room and building numbers, or cred-its listed, please report the errors to the Registration Area, DASR 101-H. WHAT HAPPENS IF I STOP ATTENDING A CLASS?

You might have to pay back all the financial aid money you received for the current semester, you could receive a failing grade, and/or your fi-nancial aid/scholarships could be seriously affected in the future. Make certain that you consider all the financial and academic consequences carefully, and, if you decide to no longer attend a class, officially drop the class through the Registration Office, observing all deadlines.

CAN SCHEDULE CHANGES BE MADE AFTER REGISTRATION? In consultation with your academic advisers, you may make online or in-person changes to your schedule after completing initial registration. The last day to ADD a course (with an instructor signature) is Jan. 27. It is important to visit with the Finanicial Aid office PRIOR to schedule changes as your financial aid awards may be affected.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I NEED TO WITHDRAW FROM ALL CLASSES? Students may withdraw from all classes until Apr 17 (except for courses carrying designated dates). If you need to completely withdraw from school and all courses are DACC courses, you may withdraw at the DACC Registration Area, DASR 101-H. If you have any NMSU courses, contact the NMSU Registrar’s Office in the Educational Services Build-ing. If you stop attending classes but do not officially withdraw, you may receive failing grades for all courses in which you are registered; additionally, you will be liable for all tuition and fees and financial aid awards maybe adjusted.

WILL I GET A REFUND IF I HAVE TO WITHDRAW FROM CLASSES? Depending on when you withdraw, you may be eligible for a refund. Use the Registration Dates and Deadlines Table on page 5 to determine how much you may be eligible to receive. Refund percentages are based upon the total charges for the semester and not on the amount you have paid. All refunds are applied toward amounts owed. Late fee charges incurred during late registration are not refundable.

NOTE: For financial aid restrictions, contact your financial aid adviser. MAY I REPEAT A CLASS?

Yes. Students are encouraged to take advantage of the repeat policy to raise their grade-point average (GPA) in courses where grades of D or F are earned. A computable grade (not I, W, RR, AU, S, or U) will be substituted in the GPA calculation, though the original grade remains on the transcript. A grade of RR can be assigned only for RR-eligible skill-development courses (see current DACC catalog) for the original grade in calculating your cumulative GPA. For financial aid restrictions, contact your financial aid adviser.

WHERE CAN I BUY MY BOOKS?

The DACC bookstores are located in the Classroom Building, rm. 170 at the Espina Campus (3400 S. Espina, 527-7692) and in DAAR 102 at the East Mesa Campus (2800 N. Sonoma Ranch Blvd., 528-7254), and are open throughout the semester 8:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m., Monday–Friday. A full refund will be given in your original form of payment if textbooks are returned during the first week of classes with original receipt. With proof of a schedule change and original receipt, a full refund will be giv-en in your original form of paymgiv-ent during the first 30 days of classes. No refunds or exchanges without original receipt.

E-BILLING

Electronic Billing (E-Bill) is the official method for delivery of bill-ing statements to NMSU Students. Billbill-ing statements are generat-ed at the beginning of each month. At that time, an e-mail is sent to the student’s official nmsu.edu e-mail address with instructions on how to view their bill within the NMSU Web Payment System. Students also have the capability of creating Authorized Users within the NMSU Web Payment System.

Authorized Users are typically parents or other designees that the student wishes to grant access to billing information and pay-ment information. Information on how to create an authorized user can be found on the University Accounts Receivable E-Bill/ Make a Payment page www.nmsu.edu/~uar/ebill/ebill.html

The tables below show the final exam schedules for Spring 2015. Ex-ams will be held in the regularly scheduled lecture/lab room. CHECK FOR CONFLICTS EARLY. Final examination schedules for both DACC and NMSU appear below. If you take classes at both insti-tutions, it is very important that you check both tables for potential timing conflicts or overlaps. Should you find a timing problem, you must notify your instructors before the deadline of March11, 2015, that alternate arrangements need to be made.

NO MORE THAN THREE EXAMS IN ONE DAY. Any students having more than three examinations scheduled in any one day may notify the instructor of the last examination listed and ask for alternate

ar-rangements to be made for examination. (If the fourth exam is a de-partmental exam, the instructor of the third exam will make alternate arrangements.)

RELATED STUDENT RIGHTS. Instructors are not allowed to hold ex-aminations lasting more than one class period during the last week of regular classes. In addition, faculty can only reschedule exams outside of the regularly scheduled exam period with the unanimous consent of the students and permission of the department head. Stu-dents who feel that their rights have been violated should contact their respective department head. NOTE: Final exams for weekend courses will be held at the regular class period on the last day of class.

How to Read the Class Listings

Column Headings

Column headings are explained below in the order in which they ap-pear (left-most column first, far-right column last):

• The first column with the heading Begins, Ends lists the dates of short sessions (courses that do not begin and end when the regu-lar semester does).

• The second column is headed with an asterisk (*). On any given line under this heading one of the following letters may appear: A, I, P, S. AnA means that if you are absent from class, you may be automatically dropped—and that could create problems with financial aid, among other things. The letter I indicates that you must get the approval of the instructor to register for the class. The letter P means that DACC students have enrollment priority—that is, DACC students will have the first opportunity to enroll in a class with a P, and NMSU students will be permitted to sign up for the class later. An S indicates that a class is graded S/U; that is, you will receive either a satisfactory or unsatisfactory grade, rather than a regular letter grade.

• The third column is titled CRN, which stands for Course Reference Number.

Abbreviations for Days of the Week

The abbreviations for Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday have changed to a single letter:

• Monday = M • Friday = F

• Tuesday = T (formerly Tu) • Saturday = S (formerly Sat) • Wednesday = W • Sunday = U (formerly Sun) • Thursday = R (formerly Th)

Times Stated in 24-Hour-Clock Time

(“Military Time”) The use of military time helps avoid confusion. For example, some-times it’s difficult to be sure if a class time given as 7:30 is in the morn-ing or in the evenmorn-ing. By usmorn-ing the 24-hour clock, there is no pos-sibility of making a mistake. As you can see in the table below, the numbers denoting the hours do not repeat after 12 p.m.
