Financial Clearance

To be considered financially cleared, a student must have a method of payment established and agreed upon with Ottawa University or have the balance paid in full by the campus stated deadline.

This can be completed by:

• Paying the balance in full upfront;
• Having a third party pay tuition and/or fees - verification of the agreement with invoicing instructions must have been submitted to the Accounts Receivable office;
• Receiving federal financial aid - FAFSA, Master Promissory Note, Loan Request, Entrance Counseling, as well as any verification documents needed if selected for verification. These documents must have been received by the University by their deadline date;
• Deferring tuition (APGS only) according to the University's defined deferred tuition plan - a deferred tuition form, $60 deferred payment fee and employer reimbursement policy with approval must have been submitted to the Accounts Receivable office;
• Establishing a Tuition Management System (TMS) payment plan- the plan must have been created on the TMS website with the enrollment fee paid by the deadline date (The College or OUAZ) ; and/or
• Getting approval for a need based internal payment plan signed off by financial advisors, campus managers, and/or the Account Receivable office.
