INSTRUCTIONS
Academic Year 2007/2008- Autumn Quarter
**PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY**

The enclosed tuition bill reflects charges and credits known to us on the billing date. Please verify that all amounts are correct and that nothing has been omitted. If an adjustment to your bill is necessary, use the worksheet on the back of this notice to calculate your adjusted total due. Please retain this worksheet and the upper portion of your bill for your records. Note that if you do not intend to enroll for the autumn quarter, pay only the previous balance and any current transactions.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR TUITION BILL
Previous Balance is the balance due from your previous bill. Payments received toward this balance appear in the Current Transactions section of this bill.

Current Transactions - This section contains detailed charges and credits added to your account since the last bill.

Autumn 2007 Transactions - The Pending activity displayed in this section represents your anticipated charges and credits for the upcoming quarter. You should use the Adjustment Worksheet on the back of this form if you know these projections are not correct. Please pay the TOTAL AMOUNT DUE on your bill or the ADJUSTED TOTAL AMOUNT DUE, if you used the Adjustment Worksheet.

TUITION CHARGES are calculated at the rate of a full program. If you do not plan to register for a full program, adjust the tuition charges according to the tuition rate schedule (See list of tuition rates at http://bursar.uchicago.edu/tuition.html).

STUDENT HEALTH AND WELLNESS FEE AND ACTIVITY FEE - These are required fees. The Student Health and Wellness Fee is NOT the same as Student Health Insurance. It is a required fee that supports the student health center and mental health services.

STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE - Each year all students must choose either to enroll in or waive SASI (Student Accident and Sickness Insurance). Your decision is binding for the remaining plan year (until August 31st). Students who are registered at the University for autumn quarter are required to complete the SASI insurance enrollment/waiver procedures online at https://registrar.uchicago.edu/health no later than Oct 5, ‘07. NOTE: Waivers are only granted to students who have completed the online certification of comparable insurance. No other communication from you will satisfy the waiver requirement. Failure to complete an online waiver or confirm SASI enrollment by Oct 5th will result in your automatic enrollment in the SASI Basic plan for the remainder of the plan year, and you will be responsible for the premium. More detailed information about SASI coverage is available at http://studenthealth.uchicago.edu/studentinsurance/ and at http://www.chickering.com.

FINANCIAL AID AND OTHER CREDITS known on the billing date will appear on your bill. In some cases, the exact amount of an award is currently unknown and the credit amount has been estimated. If the actual award varies from the estimated amount shown, an adjustment will be made on a subsequent bill. Federal Loans and some Alternative loans reflect gross rather than net amounts on the billing statement. There may be an adjustment to your account for loan origination and/or guarantee fees in a subsequent billing statement. More detailed information about Student Loans and Federal Work Study is available at https://sla.uchicago.edu/.
