THE BOTTOM LINE Check your student account regularly in SharkLink to monitor activity and to determine whether you may anticipate an outstanding balance or a financial aid refund after all financial aid funds have been disbursed. Shortage of Funds Financial aid is intended to assist you in financing your education by supplementing your own resources. Many students and families use a combination of personal savings, scholarships, Florida Prepaid funds, part-time employment, PLUS Loans, and NSU payment plans to fund their education. Two of these options include the following: Federal Direct PLUS Loans These loans allow creditworthy graduate/first-professional students and parents of dependent undergraduate students YOUR AWARD AND FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS Your financial aid award will be credited to your student account at the beginning of each semester/term, provided you have submitted all required information and meet all financial aid general eligibility criteria. Loans are scheduled to disburse seven days prior to the beginning of the semester/term. Institutional scholarships, federal grants, and state grants/scholarships are scheduled to be disbursed by the start of classes or, if your program has an add/drop period, after that period. In accordance with NSU’s Student Enrollment Agreement (SEA) and payment policy, by registering for classes, students agree to pay in full all sums assessed by NSU. Institutional charges are due at the time of registration. These charges include tuition and fees, student health insurance premiums, and housing and meal plan charges, if applicable. You are encouraged to monitor your student account closely at the beginning of each semester/term to ensure that you have met all financial obligations . NSU Student Health Insurance NSU students are required to maintain health insurance, and the cost for the NSU Student Health Insurance Plan is added to students’ accounts upon registration. If you are insured under another health insurance plan, you must complete an online waiver to avoid being enrolled in, and charged for, NSU’s plan. Please visit the NSU Student Health Insurance web page at nova. edu/studentinsurance for more information on student health insurance, including access to the online waiver form and submission deadlines.
