Payment Policies
Failure to meet payments when due
A student who fails to make fee payments or make satisfactory arrangements to pay in the Cashier’s Office by the close of business on the last day to add a class may be automatically suspended from all classes. The student may not attend classes until he or she has been officially reinstated and has paid all accrued fees and a reinstatement fee of $50. Students may refer to the Academic Calendar for each semester to obtain “last day to add a class” information.
Installment Payment Plan
UVA Wise offers a monthly payment plan. Information about this service is available at the Financial Aid Office or the Cashier’s Office.
Federal Tax Forms
Students who take classes at UVA WISE are eligible to receive 1098T Tuition Statements for tax purposes. Those forms are provided by the Cashier’s Office and statements will be mailed to the home address in the student information system.
Institutional Loan Programs
The University of Virginia’s College at Wise Emergency Loan Fund was established to help students meet emergency, unanticipated financial expenses when financial aid or other sources of funding are not immediately available. Emergencies may be, but are not limited to, travel expenses for the student to return home in case of family emergency, medical expenses or purchasing medical insurance. The purchase of books and supplies pending the receipt of financial aid or student loan refund is not considered an emergency. A student must be enrolled in at least 12 on-campus credit hours in a degree program to be eligible for this assistance. Students may borrow up to $300 and are limited to one loan per semester. The loan period may not exceed 90 days in length and must be repaid prior to the start of the next semester or term. Interest is not charged to the borrower. The application is available in the Cashier’s Office.
Refund Policy
In the event a student withdraws from the college, tuition, fees, room and board charges are canceled on a percentage basis determined by the week of school in which the withdrawal takes place. The week begins with the Monday on which classes begin and extends to the following Sunday. Monies due to the College are paid first before refunds are issued to the student.

Return of Title IV Funds Schedule: In the event a student withdraws from the college and the student has received Title IV Aid, the Return of Title IV Funds Schedule will apply. Under this schedule, room and board are considered institutional charges and will be refunded in the same manner as tuition and fees, i.e., based on the number of days of attendance. Contact the Cashier’s Office for additional information.
Returned Checks
A $50.00 service charge is assessed for each check returned unpaid by a bank for any reason. A student who has had three checks returned during a semester will not be allowed to cash subsequent checks or make purchases on campus via personal check without specific permission of the Cashier’s Office.
