IMPORTANT MESSAGES
For the Month of November 2009

Special Messages for the Month
  • PLEASE NOTE that your payment for this bill MUST BE RECEIVED at Yale by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, December 1, 2009, in order to avoid being assessed a late fee.  We strongly urge you to make your payment early enough for it to arrive by the due date.  This can most reliably be accomplished by using Yale eBill-ePay  (http://www.yale.edu/sis/ebep/) to make your payment electronically at no extra cost.  If you use overnight mail, and only for overnight mail, the following address must be used:  Student Financial Services, Cashiers Office, 246 Church Street, 1st Floor, New Haven, CT  06510.
  • If you are a YALE COLLEGE student and have not yet advised Student Financial Services of an outside scholarship that will be paid directly to Yale University, please complete an Outside Scholarship/Resource Update Form (http://www.yale.edu/sfas/finaid/pdf-forms/0910/0910OAUpdate.pdf/) and fax it to (203) 777-6100.  College Savings Plans and Prepaid Tuition Plans are not outside scholarships and, therefore, should not be reported.
  • Credits that have not been authorized for payment due to outstanding financial aid process requirements are no longer shown within the Anticipated Financial Aid section of your monthly account statement.  As a result, you are required to pay the balance due by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on December 1, 2009.  If and when, after paying the balance due, you complete the outstanding requirements and the resulting financial aid is then credited to your account, any resulting credit balance in your account will be available to you as a refund.  Please contact Student Financial Services to find out what you need to do to finalize this aid.
  • Waiver requests for the Yale Health Plan Hospitalization/Specialty Care Coverage must be submitted online at https://yhpstudentwaiver.yale.edu/.  Waivers for the spring term must be submitted no later than January 31, 2010.  Please call the YHP Member Services at (203) 432-0246 or email member.services@yale.edu if you need additional information.
  • If there is a credit balance on your account and if you have graduated or otherwise permanently separated from the University, please contact the Cashiers Office (refund@yale.edu) to request a refund.
