Payment is due by the due date shown on your bill. If you do not receive a bill, follow the payment deadline schedule listed below.
Cancellation for Non-Payment
In accordance with state law, payment for tuition and fees is due prior to the start of the term. UNCW students agree upon registration to pay all their student account charges when due and acknowledge that, if these charges are not paid, the University may: charge penalty and interest, cancel registration, suspend registration and/or withhold a degree.
UNCW drops for non-payment the day after the Bill Due date for the first two bills issued each semester. Students whose schedules are canceled may find it difficult or impossible to re-register for the same courses because their seats may have been taken by students on wait lists.
If your account balance is not paid in full by the due date shown on your bill, your classes will be at risk of being canceled
Your due date is located on your student account statement
Ultimately, it is the students' responsibility to officially drop all their classes, housing, meal plan, and parking if they decide not to attend UNCW. Not dropping before the posted add/drop date can have academic and financial implications
