2008 Financial Information



General Information

All tuition and fees, etc., are payable by the Payment Deadline before the start of classes. Tuition is determined by the academic level of the course and not by the academic status of the student.  Auditors pay the same tuition per credit.

Students whose Summer School Bills are being paid in whole or in part by non-Georgetown University scholarship must submit the scholarship award notice directly to the Student Accounts Office as payment with their bill (Procedures are subject to change).

Short term tuition deferments may be granted in emergency situations.  A $60.00 deferral fee will be charged.  This fee will be charged in all cases of late payment except when it is due to the delayed receipt of financial aid funds from an external agency or University Department.  No prior balances will be deferred.

The student must request a deferment from the Student Accounts Office.  The telephone number is (202) 687-7100.  The deferment must be paid in full by September TBA, 2008.

A student who leaves the University, for any reason, with an outstanding debit balance should immediately contact the Student Accounts Office to arrange for payment of the balance.  Failure to contact this office will necessitate the forwarding of the account to a credit bureau and a collection agency. In this event, the former student will be responsible for payment of any fees or expenses incurred by the University in the collection of the outstanding balance.  Tuition may be paid in cash, by check, authorization, VISA, MasterCard, American Express, or online through the Student Accounts Office website.

Loans

Students who enroll at least half-time in the G.U. Summer School who have not already borrowed the maximum loan amounts during the preceding academic year may be eligible to borrow more to meet Summer School costs.  Georgetown degree candidates can apply for loans through the G.U. Office of Student Financial Services.  Non-Georgetown students must apply for loans through their home institutions; Georgetown will work with the home institution to certify enrollment and need for assistance for the summer term.  Please consult with the G.U. Office of Student Financial Services for guidance about eligibility for loan programs for summer study.

Refunds

Tuition is refundable only when the student withdraws from a course using Student Access+ during the Add/Drop period or when the student completes an Add/Drop Form in the Summer School Office after the Add/Drop period.  Refund amounts will be determined by the date on which the Add/Drop Form is signed by the Dean of the Summer School (see schedule below).  The student must also submit a request for a refund from the Student Accounts Office at the same time the Add/Drop Form is processed.  The request for refund must be in writing either on a Refund Request Form or in a signed letter that can be mailed or faxed directly to the Student Accounts Office.  If you fax a letter, please make sure that your full name and student ID number is included.  The fax number is (202) 687-1133.  Any refund will be computed according to the schedule listed below.*

Tuition Scholarships

Partial tuition scholarships are available in limited numbers for Summer School students.  These scholarships do not provide for travel, room fees or study abroad and they may not be used for Tutorials or Consortium courses.

Georgetown Degree Candidates: Georgetown University degree candidates seeking information about scholarships and other financial assistance for summer study should visit the  G.U. Office of Student Financial Services web site or call that office at (202) 687-4547.  Applications will soon be available and the preferred deadline is April 1, 2008.  Early submission is strongly recommended since financial aid funds are limited.

Non-Georgetown students:  Students who are not degree candidates at Georgetown can apply for limited scholarship assistance directly from the Georgetown University Summer School.  Interested students can download the Partial Tuition Scholarship Application or request one from the Summer School Scholarship Committee, Georgetown University, Washington, DC 20057-1008, (202) 687-8700.*  Scholarship announcements will be mailed on a rolling basis.

Non-Georgetown students whose tuition is being paid in whole or in part by a G.U. Summer School scholarship must submit a copy of the Scholarship Award Notice directly to the Summer School Scholarship Coordinator to complete payment.**

Senior Citizen Auditor Program

The Georgetown University Summer School is able to offer senior citizens (those 65 years and older) the opportunity to audit selected undergraduate credit courses.  These courses are open on a space-available basis with the consent of the professor.  No lower level language courses (011-200 levels) studio fine arts courses, computer science, science courses with labs, seminar courses or any of the Liberal Studies degree program courses are available for audit. Senior citizens may enroll as auditors (students for whom no grades are given) for a nominal registration fee of $50.00 per course plus course fees, where indicated (fees are non-refundable).  A transcript of previous academic achievement will be required.

For a listing of courses offered and an application, contact the Summer School, (202) 687-5942, or write to Senior Citizen Auditor Program, Summer School, Georgetown University, Washington, D.C. 20057-1008.
