Why didn’t financial aid pay all my charges?  What can I do about it?

University charges, other than tuition, fees, room and board, cannot be paid automatically by Federal Title IV funds and/or outside scholarships without your express authorization. This includes charges such as parking, health services or balances from previous semesters. Without a waiver, you must pay these charges even if a refund check is received. If those charges remain unpaid, a Bursar Hold may be placed on your account, restricting registration, use of athletic facilities and other services.

To avoid this inconvenience, waivers are available. These waivers authorize the UConn Bursar's Office to use Federal Title IV funds and/or outside scholarships to pay any and all charges that may appear on your fee bill.

After logging in to PeopleSoft, navigate to the Waive Fin Aid Payment Rules link by clicking:

• SA Self Service > Learner Services > Finances
• Click the Waive Fin Aid Payment Rules link.
• Click Waiver Type at the top of the page, or Next tab beneath the explanation, to continue.
• Select the authorization option that applies to you
• Click Create Waiver to enact your authorization

Is parking available for Uconn Stamford Students?

Yes. The parking garage is located adjacent to the campus on Washington Boulevard. Students may park in areas designated “Student Parking.”  A parking decal is required of students parking at the Stamford campus.

Fees for a Stamford campus parking decal are as follows:
            $40 for the academic year (includes summer)
            $20 if you haven’t attended in the fall but are attending spring (includes summer)
            $10 for summer if you haven’t paid parking that includes summer
            $2 for each additional decal

As Uconn Stamford is a commuter campus, degree students are automatically billed for parking for the year.  If you will not be parking in the garage, you must request cancellation before the tenth day of class.

Non-degree students pay for parking at the time of registration.

To register your vehicle and obtain a decal, complete the Student Vehicle Registration Information Form for each decal you purchase, pay fees and obtain proof of payment.  Proof of payment must specifically show that parking fees are paid. Degree students can obtain proof of payment through PeopleSoft.  Alternately, students may go to the bursar’s office to get copies of the form, pay fees and obtain proof of payment.

Decals can be picked up from the Campus Police located on the 3rd floor of the parking garage.  Present proof of payment and completed registration form.  Parking decals will not be mailed.  However, the Campus Police Office is open 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
