Financial Aid

Students can apply for financial assistance (i.e. grants, scholarships, or student loans). Visit Financial Assistance web site athttp://www.pittstate.edu/office/financial_aid/.

IF YOU HAVE A LOAN, GRANT, SCHOLARSHIP, OR OUTSIDE SPONSORSHIP

Students are required to access GUS on-line to verify their enrollment in order to have their financial aid applied to their accounts.  This verification must be completed for EACH new semester.  Students will access the web site http://www.pittstate.edu   Click on GUS.  Enter your GUS ID and PIN #.  If you do not have a GUS ID and PIN #, click on Forgot GusPIN/Password and a GUS Pin will be emailed to you.  Through this process, students will verify the classes in which they have enrolled.  All University charges are required to be paid in full before financial aid refunds will be disbursed to the student.  If a student has any academic holds, this will also be noted on the web site.  Please note that students with a University HOLD on their records will be required to either have the hold removed or obtain permission from the applicable University department.  Students may verify their enrollment for the current term via GUS at Verification of Enrollment for Distribution of Funds. See top of page for dates when this verification page becomes available.  Students must maintain all financial assistance and University requirements (i.e. no academic holds, enrolled in the number of hours in which aid was based) to insure that their financial aid is available at the beginning of the semester.  

Students who pay tuition and fees by a sponsorship (3rd party payment, vocational rehabilitation, military service benefits, foreign embassy, Indian tribe, etc.) must report to the Office of Cashiers and Student Accounts, Room 112 Horace Mann, to authorize the release of their student financial records to their third party payer. This allows us to bill the third party for the tuition and fees.  Failure to report to the Cashiers and Student Account Office before the tuition payment deadline will result in cancellation of your enrollment.

If you have any questions, please call the Office of Cashiers and Student Accounts at 620-235-4092.

LATE PENALTY FEE AND RETURNED CHECK FEE

Tuition and Fees must be paid by 3:30 p.m. on the tuition payment deadline date. Students who fail to pay their tuition and  fees by the due date will have their enrollment cancelled.  Students enrolling or re-enrolling beginning the day after the tuition deadline  will be charged a late fee penalty of $50.00.

Students will be charged a $30.00 fee for returned checks.
