Financial Responsibility

By registering for classes, a student assumes a legal obligation to pay tuition, fees and room and board charges (if applicable). If a balance is not paid by the due date, a hold will be placed on the account, which will prevent further registration, or release of transcripts. If the account is submitted to a collection agency, the student will be responsible for all collection costs and legal fees incurred.

Student Bills and Payment

Alfred University has a paperless electronic billing and payment site, hosted by CASHNet. Students can log into BannerWeb to access the billing and payment site. (New students need to activate their AU email account in order to receive billing notifications.) If you are not the primary payer of your student bill, please log in to give access to the person that needs to see and pay your bill.

For Parents and Authorized Users - Once you are listed as an Authorized User, you will receive the username and password needed to access the CASHNet system by the email designated by your student. Once you have a user ID and password, log into CASHNet to see the new bill. If you already have access, but have forgotten your password, you can reset it yourself by clicking the link on the homepage or contact your student to reset the password.

Financial Aid

In most cases, the availability of financial aid for summer school is limited ad not the same as during the academic year. Students should speak with a Financial Aid staff member well in advance of classes regarding their summer aid eligibility. An appointment is usually not necessary. Most questions can be answered by Financial Aid staff on a walk-in basis or through a phone call. For further information, please call the Office of Student Financial Aid at 607-871-2159.

Housing Reservations

Summer campus housing is available for students aged 18 or older. Students who require summer housing should contact the Office of Residence Life at 607-871-2186. This MUST be done at least four (4) weeks prior to your first class. You will be notified of your housing assignment shortly before the start of the summer session you are attending via your AU email account. All campus housing locations are smoke-free areas. Smoking is only allowed 25' from any building on campus. Animals are NOT allowed in any building on campus, including the residence halls.

Rooms are rented for either summer term and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Campus housing facilities are clean and adequate, but spartan (no phones or TVs, no maid service, no fans or air conditioning). Students typically supply their own bed and bath linens, pillows and blankets. However, bed linens are available through an outside contracted linen service. Students who wish to receive this service must contract for it when making arrangements for on-campus housing. The cost for linen service is $16 per week and it includes one pillow, one pillowcase, one top sheet, one bottom fitted sheet and one blanket. Along with your own personal items, you may want to bring with you dishes, cooking utensils, pots and pans, lamp, fan (the halls are not air conditioned), wastebasket, hangers, TV (if desired), etc., as these are some of the items not supplied. There is a full kitchen on the main floor of the residence hall for student use. Laundry facilities are available in the residence hall. All housing locations are smoke-free. No pets are allowed (unless assisting the visually impaired).

Additional information concerning where to go and how to obtain your key when you arrive on campus will be provided to you with your housing confirmation. If you have any questions concerning housing, please contact the Office of Residence Life at 607-871-2186

Control of Animals Policy

Animals are not allowed in any University building unless trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability. Documentation is required; please contact the Office of Residence Life for more information (607-871-2186)

Dining

While no meal plan is available during Summer Term I, most summer students are housed in a residence hall that has full kitchen facilities so they can prepare their own food if they wish to. Meals may also be obtained at restaurants in the Village of Alfred.

The dining hall will be open during most of Summer Term II and there may be a limited meal plan available for students residing on campus. (Summer Term II students interested in the meal plan should contact the Residence Life Office at 607-871-2186 for further details.)
