Withdrawal

If you do not plan to attend Worcester State University this semester, you must make an appointment with the Academic Success Center. To schedule an appointment please call 508-929-8139.  Non-attendance in classes does not constitute withdrawal, and you will still be responsible for any charges incurred.

 

Housing

If you have been assigned a room, charges for the room and corresponding meal plan have been included in your bill.  Questions regarding housing assignments should be directed to the Housing Office at 508-929-8074.

 

Refund Policy

Students who cancel their registrations, drop courses, or withdraw from the college during the ADD/DROP PERIOD will receive a full refund.  The add/drop period is held during the first two weeks of the semester.  Any course that is withdrawn after this period will not result in a refund.

 

Financial Aid

If you have met the Financial Aid Office (FAO) deadlines, your financial aid should appear as ‘pending aid’ on this statement.  If it does not, please contact the Financial Aid Office at 508-929-8056.  For federal student loans to appear as ‘pending aid’ you must have returned your award letter to the FAO and have completed Entrance Counseling and a Master Promissory Note (MPN).  Both Entrance Counseling and the MPN can be completed at www.worcester.edu/financialaid.

 

Mass Pirg

MassPIRG is a state-wide, not for profit, non-partisan organization directed solely by students to research and promote solutions to important social problems at local, state and national levels.  Payment of this charge is NOT required by law.  If you do not wish to contribute, you may subtract the charge from your balance due.

 

Parking & Pedestrian Access Fee

Supports the cost of parking garage operations, maintenance of pedestrian walkways, operation and maintenance of emergency call boxes, and on-campus parking.  Parking decals will be mailed to all commuter students prior to the start of the semester.

 

Health Insurance

Students who have their own health insurance coverage need to complete an online waiver form at www.universityhealthplans.com before the first day of classes.  You may then deduct the health insurance premium charge if it is listed in the itemized charges section of your statement.  If we do not receive your waiver, you will be automatically enrolled and there are no refunds.

 

Payment Plan

The College offers a payment plan administered through TuitionPay.  You may contact them directly at 800-635-0120 or www.tuitionpay.com.
