Permission to Pay

Federal Financial Aid Funds are automatically used to pay ATHENA
Student Account Charges for charges related to Tuition and Fees, Course
and Lab Fees, Residence Hall Rent, Food Service Plans and Parking
Permits when a balance is available. Permission to Pay allows you to
authorize your Federal Financial Aid (Pell, SEOG, William D. Ford Sub and
Unsub Loans, Perkins) to Pay for ‘other’ charges such as miscellaneous
fees, returned checks, parking, late fees, health insurance, etc. If you
wish to allow the University to apply your Federal
Financial Aid to pay these ‘other’ student account
charges, you have the option to choose “pay current aid
year” and/or “pay prior award year up to $200.”
