The Office of the Registrar assesses late fees, when a student registers (pays fees) or enrolls after the published deadline. Currently the assessment is $50 for late registration and $50 for late enrollment. A late registration fee is assessed for students, for whom fees are paid through OGS if they enroll late, thus causing $100 in late fees. Students who pay their fees, but do not enroll in time will also be assessed $100 late fees because the fee payment does not apply until enrollment occurs.
Only OGS can waive late fees. Criteria for a waiver are extenuating circumstances beyond the student's control.
Requests for late fee waivers must come from the graduate coordinator to OGS. No waivers will be approved without graduate coordinator verification. If a student is granted a late fee waiver, no further waivers will be considered.
New Students: Registration and enrollment is extended for new students to eliminate the need for any late fee waiver requests.
