$1,000 Tuition Rebate for Certain<br />
Undergraduates<br />
The tuition rebate program provides a financial incentive<br />
for students to complete a bachelor’s degree efficiently,<br />
taking as few courses outside their degree plan as possible.<br />
The program’s goal is minimizing the number of courses<br />
students take - saving money for the student, the student’s<br />
parents <strong>and</strong> the state of Texas.<br />
<strong>Student</strong>s must meet the following eligibility requirements:<br />
• First college course after high school graduation must<br />
be taken in Fall 1997 or later;<br />
• <strong>Student</strong> must have been a Texas resident at all times<br />
while pursuing the degree;<br />
• <strong>Student</strong> must have been entitled to pay in-state tuition<br />
at all times while pursuing the degree; <strong>and</strong><br />
• <strong>Student</strong> must not have graduated yet.<br />
<strong>Student</strong> Payments<br />
<strong>Student</strong> charges for Tuition <strong>and</strong> Fees are due <strong>and</strong> payable<br />
by dates published each semester to ensure that the<br />
student’s schedule is not affected. All tuition <strong>and</strong> fees<br />
may be paid by cash, check or credit card at the <strong>Student</strong><br />
Accounting office or online through the students’ TSTC<br />
Portal account. Checks are not accepted online.<br />
Note: TSTC may delete your classes for nonpayment,<br />
but several factors can prevent your classes from being<br />
deleted. Therefore, if you decide not to attend, it is your<br />
responsibility to drop your classes by submitting a Course<br />
Schedule Change form prior to the established deadline.<br />
Failure to drop by the established deadline can result in<br />
you being financially <strong>and</strong> academically responsible for<br />
those classes.<br />
The Installment Payment Plan, Emergency Tuition Loan<br />
or <strong>Student</strong> Financial Aid constitute additional forms<br />
of payment; however all payment arrangements must<br />
be completed by the published deadlines to avoid<br />
deregistration from classes.<br />
To save time, please use WebAdvisor to make payments<br />
online.<br />
If you want a Payment Plan, please enroll online through<br />
WebAdvisor. In the Financial Information section, click<br />
on “Online Payments." Then log in again with your<br />
WebAdvisor credentials. On the top bar (just below the<br />
TSTC logo), click on “Payments” to pay in full, or click on<br />
“Payment Plan" to enroll in (or pay toward) a payment<br />
plan. You can also review your account information<br />
through this page. Please see cashiers if you need<br />
assistance, or if paying with cash.<br />
Past Due Accounts<br />
A student with a past due unpaid balance is considered<br />
delinquent. Delinquent students may not register for<br />
subsequent terms, add classes in the current term or<br />
receive an official transcript. Delinquent accounts may be<br />
turned over to a collection agency, potentially affecting<br />
students’ personal credit ratings. <strong>Student</strong>s with delinquent<br />
accounts are responsible for the fees of any collection<br />
agency, which may be based on a percentage, with a<br />
maximum of 30 percent of the debt, <strong>and</strong> all costs <strong>and</strong><br />
expenses, including reasonable attorney fees TSTC incurs<br />
in such collection efforts after internal collection efforts<br />
have failed to result in the full payment of the student’s<br />
account. <strong>Student</strong> accounts may be sent to an outside<br />
collection agency <strong>and</strong> may be reported to one or more<br />
credit bureau reporting service(s)<br />
