IRS Form 1098-T Tuition Statements

1098-T forms for eligible students are available online through My正规赌篮球的软件. A copy is also sent by mail January 31. The 1098-T form assists you in determining if you are eligible to claim an education tax credit on your tax return. The 1098-T form is informational.

Students should consult their tax advisor or the IRS publication 970, Tax Benefits for Education, to determine eligibility for an education tax credit.

Please note that when an education credit is taken on the federal income

tax return, the calculation of the credit is based on the amount of qualified educational expenses actually paid by the taxpayer during the calendar year.

正规赌篮球的软件 reports amounts billed to a student’s account in the calendar year on the 1098-T. Therefore, the amount used to calculate your education credit will not necessarily be the same as the amount that appears in Box 2.

Payment Responsibilities and Financial Aid
Arrangements for the payment of 正规赌篮球的软件 tuition and fees must be made prior to the start of each term. By enrolling in a course(s), you agree to pay all charges incurred. If you are subsequently unable to obtain any portion of the financial aid which you intended to use for payment, you understand that you are not absolved of personal responsibility for payment, and 正规赌篮球的软件 will seek payment from you directly. This includes, but is not limited to, (1) federal financial aid (loans and/or grants) being declined or the actual award being insufficient to cover all costs noted above; (2) any third party payment arrangements (including but not limited to corporate tuition assistance, military tuition assistance, Veterans Administration benefits, scholarships) do not occur for any reason or are insufficient to cover all costs noted above; or (3) in the event that any arranged credit card or ACH payment declines. You agree to abide by the rules and standards of New England College.

Billing
You agree to view and pay your student account prior to the start of the term. 正规赌篮球的软件 uses electronic billing as its official billing method. Student accounts may be accessed online through the My正规赌篮球的软件 portal.

Collections
You agree that you shall be individually liable for all fees and expenses of, for and incidental to the collection of all amounts due; this shall include, without limitation, reasonable collection fees incurred with third party agencies, and reasonable attorney and paralegal fees and other costs incurred in litigation, mediation, arbitration and bankruptcy proceedings, including appeals. Delinquent accounts may be reported to one or more of the national credit bureaus.

Withholding of Official Records
No official documents of completion of individual courses or degrees will be awarded by the 正规赌篮球的软件 Registrar until outstanding payment is received in full. If at any time you have questions about your account, please contact the Student Financial Services Office. Financial holds will prevent registering for future courses, participating in commencement, receiving a diploma and may prevent the release of transcripts. 

Updating your Contact Information
It is your responsibility to keep your address and phone number up to date in My正规赌篮球的软件 so that 正规赌篮球的软件 can communicate with you. Email communication will be sent to your @ooohang.com student email address.

Course Withdrawal Policy
Automatic Withdrawal
It is extremely important that you begin to actively participate in your classes immediately to achieve academic success. Students must participate in class by logging in a minimum of two (2) times before 11:59 p.m. EST on the Sunday of the first week of the session. Failure to do so will demonstrate nonparticipation, and you will be automatically withdrawn. If you do not complete an academic action in each class prior to 11:59 p.m. EST on the Sunday of Week 3, you will be removed from that course. If you were using financial aid to help pay your tuition costs and were removed from class due to non–participation, you will not be eligible to receive financial aid.

Voluntary Withdrawal
If you are a new student, to withdraw prior to the start of your first class you must contact your admissions advisor. Once class begins, during Week 1, both new and returning students must withdraw by using the My正规赌篮球的软件 online portal found at My正规赌篮球的软件.ooohang.com. Once at the website, select the link titled “Enter Secure Area to Access Student and Faculty Services” to log in to your My正规赌篮球的软件 account. During Weeks 2 and after, if you are an undergraduate student, to withdraw from class you must contact Academic Advising at advising2@ooohang.com. If you are a graduate and professional studies student, you must contact Student Financial Services. Failure to receive proper materials or for technology to properly perform does not excuse you from this withdrawal policy. You are responsible for maintaining written evidence of all drops/withdrawals.

Failure to attend classes or verbal notification to instructors does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal.

Federal Direct Stafford Loan
A Federal Stafford Loan is a low interest, federal student loan. In order to be eligible for the supplemental Unsubsidized Stafford loan, a student must be either independent by federal standards or for dependent students, parents must receive a credit denial for the PLUS loan. See the current loan interest rates here.

To receive a Stafford Loan, students must complete the Master Promissory Note and Entrance counseling interview at www.studentloans.gov

Federal Direct PLUS Loan
The Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) must be borrowed by a parent. The parent borrower may apply at studentaid.gov 180 days prior to the term start. The parent(s) can borrow up to the cost of education less financial assistance awarded and accepted by the student. The interest rate and origination fees may be found at studentaid.ed.gov. Repayment for the PLUS will begin 30-45 days after the first disbursement has been released or may be deferred until after graduation.

The Graduate PLUS Loan for Graduate level students interest rate may be found at studentaid.ed.gov. A graduate student may apply for the PLUS loan at studentaid.gov and may borrow up to the cost of attendance less financial assistance awarded.

Repaying Your Loans
Sample Loan Repayment Schedule

National Student Loan Data System

National Student Loan Data System
Federal loans are submitted to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) and may be accessed by schools, lenders and guarantee agencies determined to be authorized users of the data system. Students may review their complete loan history and loan services on NSLDS. Understanding the details of repayment on your federal student loan can save you time and money.

Private Loan Programs—Historical Lender List
We strongly encourage you to pursue all state, federal, and institutional aid available to you first in financing your New England College education. If you need additional financing after exhausting these resources, or if you do not qualify for federal loans, there are several lenders who offer alternative/private education loans. The terms and conditions of private loans may be less favorable than federal loans. Approvals of private loans are typically based on your credit rating and debt-to-income ratio and may require a co-signer.

New England College does not maintain a preferred lender list. The below list represents the private lender programs used by our students during the previous school year. New England College will process your financing options from any participating lender program.

We encourage you to thoroughly research lenders to ensure you receive the best rates and services that meet your needs. Make sure to compare borrower benefits ranging from origination and default fees that can reduce the initial cost of the loan as well as benefits to save money during repayment such as auto-debit interest rate reductions. Interest rates are typically variable, which means they can change monthly, and rates vary amongst private lenders. For current Prime and London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) information, please visit the Bankrate website.

Overdue accounts referred to a collection agency will incur the agency’s fee. This fee, usually 25 to 50 percent, will be added to the overdue balance at the time of assignment to the agency.

New England College offers an interest-free monthly payment plan (administered by Nelnet Campus Commerce) for traditional undergraduate semesters and 12–15-week graduate semesters. To enroll in the payment plan, log in to your My正规赌篮球的软件 portal, click Student Services & Financial Aid, click Online Account, then Set up a Payment Plan. Details about the payment plans are available at mycollegepaymentplan.com/nec.

Personal expenses, including books and supplies, clothing, laundry, travel, and recreation will vary from student to student. Each student should plan personal expense requirements and develop a budget based upon those expectations. The Office of Student Financial Services can assist in developing this annual cost of attendance.

Students should consider establishing a checking account at a local bank in order to pay for books, supplies, and other personal expenses. The Office of Student Financial Services does not cash personal checks for students.

Textbooks and course materials for both undergraduate and graduate courses can be purchased through the online bookstore operated by 正规赌篮球的软件’s partner eCampus. All textbooks from the bookstore are ordered online and can be shipped to the student’s home or College mailbox. eCampus offers many purchasing options, based on availability, including new condition, used condition, rental, and digital formats. The virtual bookstore accepts credit card payments and eligible students can pay for orders using financial aid funds.

Federal Financial Aid recipients with excess funds (financial aid funds greater than the direct billed expenses) may request a book voucher from the Student Financial Services Office beginning one week prior to the semester start. The book voucher will charge the cost of books and supplies purchased at the online bookstore to the student’s New England College student account.

Tuition refunds will be calculated based on withdrawal dates as follows:

A refund or credit for tuition and board only is issued according to the schedule listed. All other charges are non‐refundable. If the tuition and fees are not paid in full, any refund/credit is applied to the unpaid balance. If there is an outstanding balance due after the tuition and board credit is applied, the amount outstanding is due within 10 days of the official date of withdrawal, suspension, or dismissal.

Return of Federal Financial Aid (Title IV)
Students who withdraw before 60% of the term is completed will have their eligible federal financial aid recalculated according to the length of their enrollment. The percentage of time the student remained enrolled is the percentage of eligible aid for that period that the student earned. A student who remains enrolled beyond the 60% point earns all federal aid for that period. The return of federal financial aid recalculation is performed independently of institutional costs incurred for the period of enrollment. The return of federal financial aid recalculation is performed within 30 days of a withdrawal. Any unearned financial aid paid to New England College for institutional charges will be returned to the source in the following order within 45 days of a withdrawal:

1. Unsubsidized Federal Direct loans
2. Subsidized Federal Direct loans
3. Federal Direct PLUS loans
4. Federal Pell grants
5. Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity grants

Students are responsible to pay their New England College account balance due as of a result of a return of federal financial aid recalculation, within 30 days. There may also be an amount of unearned aid due from the student directly to the Department of Education or to the federal direct loan servicer according to the terms and conditions of the student’s loan master promissory note.

If as a result of the calculation, a student is eligible for federal financial funds that have not yet been disbursed, any grant funds will be disbursed first. If the student is eligible for loan funds, a notice will be sent to the student to sign and return within fourteen days if they choose to accept the loans. The student will not be eligible for a post-withdrawal disbursement of loans if the notice is not returned within fourteen days.  Loans are repaid by the student according to their loan master promissory note.

Return of Unearned Military Tuition Assistance

Students who withdraw before 60% of the term is completed will have their eligible tuition assistance recalculated according to the length of their enrollment. The percentage of time the student remained enrolled is the percentage of eligible tuition assistance for that period that the student earned. A student who remains enrolled beyond the 60% point earns all tuition assistance for that period. The Return of Unearned Tuition Assistance calculation is performed independently of institutional costs incurred for the period of enrollment. Unearned assistance is refunded to the Military Service. Funds are remitted within approximately forty-five days of a withdrawal. If a Service member withdraws due to a military service obligation, the tuition may be waived provided the Service member submits the appropriate documentation to the Student Financial Services Office upon withdrawal.

Students may enroll in direct deposit in the online billing portal of My正规赌篮球的软件. Other choices for student refunds are a check mailed to the mailing address listed in the My正规赌篮球的软件 account or loaded to a reloadable debit card (such as those purchased at big-box retailers or a convenience store).

To make a refund choice, log into My正规赌篮球的软件, click on Student Services and Financial Aid, click on Online Account, then Manage Refunds. Refunds from Parent PLUS loan excess funds are mailed to the parent borrower. Refunds are available approximately 10 business days from the receipt of excess loan funds.

Cost of Attendance (COA): The estimated cost of attending this institution for one academic year. This amount includes the following:

• Expected charges for one year of tuition and fees:
  • Tuition: Charges assessed for classes
  • Fees: Charges assessed for other college services
• Room and board for resident students
• Estimated living expense: Allowance for rent, utilities, and food for off-campus living
• Estimated transportation costs
• Estimated books and supplies
• Miscellaneous costs

Direct Costs: Expenses the student/family pays to the college.

Educational Loan: A form of financial aid that must be repaid with interest. Educational loans have varying interest rates and repayment terms. Students and/or parents are required to sign a promissory note when accepting an educational loan.

• Student Loan: Funds awarded to the student that must eventually be paid back to the lender by the student.
  • Federal Direct Student Loan: Loan funds provided to the student by the U.S. Department of Education, through the school. Repayment of principal begins six months after the borrower ceases to be a student on at least a half-time basis. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the annual application. There are two types of Federal Direct Student Loans: subsidized and unsubsidized. Students with financial need can qualify for a subsidized loan, and the government pays the interest on the loan while the student remains enrolled at least half time. Students who don’t demonstrate financial need qualify for an unsubsidized loan and interest accrues while the student is in school.
  • Federal Perkins Loan: A low interest loan for educational expenses provided by the federal government for qualified individuals with exceptional financial need as defined by the institution. The Federal Perkins Loan needs to be repaid with interest once the student is no longer enrolled at least half-time.
  • Federal Grad PLUS Loan: Loan funds provided to graduate students by the U.S. Department of Education, through the school. This federal loan program allows graduate students with no adverse credit history to apply for up to their Cost of Attendance each year, less any financial aid. To be eligible, the student must be enrolled at least half time in an eligible program of study and first borrow the maximum allowable through the Federal Direct Student Loan program. Repayment of principal and interest begins 30 to 60 days after the loan is fully disbursed with deferment and forbearance options available.
  • Private (Alternative) Loan: A loan from a commercial, state-affiliated or institutional lender used to pay for up to the annual cost of education, less any financial aid received.  Private loans usually require the applicant to be creditworthy or have a co-signer and have varying interest rates, fees and repayment options. Repayment of interest (and often principal) generally begins immediately, with some lenders offering deferment options for in-school periods.
• Federal Parent Loan (PLUS): A federal loan program that allows parents who have no adverse credit history to apply for up to the Cost of Attendance each year, less any financial aid. PLUS Loans must be repaid with interest.

Enrollment Status: Academic workload (or course load), as defined by an institution, that a student is carrying for a defined academic period. This normally relates to the number of credit hours taken by a student during a given academic period. For most traditional undergraduate term-based schools:

• Full-time status = at least 12 credit hours
• Three-quarter time status = at least 9-11 credit hours
• Half-time status = at least 6-8 credit hours

Expected Family Contribution (EFC): A measure of how much the student and his or her family can be expected to contribute to the cost of the student’s education for the year. The EFC is calculated according to a formula specified in the law and is based upon the information provided by the student and his or her family during the FASFA filing process.

Family Financial Responsibility: Many schools award institutional scholarships and grants based upon a more comprehensive calculation of family financial circumstances using information provided on the CSS PROFILE or the College’s own financial aid form. This can result in a higher (or lower) financial responsibility for the student (and his/her family) than the FAFSA might indicate with its Expected Family Contribution (EFC) estimate.

Federal Pell Grant: A grant provided by the federal government to qualified undergraduate students who demonstrate exceptional financial need and have an Expected Family Contribution below a threshold designated annually by the U.S. Department of Education, based on the amount of program funds appropriated by Congress.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG): A grant provided by the federal government to qualified undergraduate students who demonstrate exceptional financial need. Priority is given to Pell Grant recipients and funds must be awarded by the school in lowest EFC order.

Federal Work-Study (FWS): A program that provides part-time employment to students attending institutions of higher education who need the earnings to help meet their costs of postsecondary education and encourages students receiving FWS assistance to participate in community service activities.

Grant: Gift aid awarded to the student that does not need to be repaid. Grants are typically based on financial need.

Indirect Costs: Expenses incurred as a result of attendance that the student/family may pay to a third party (merchant, landlord, etc.) other than the college.

Net Cost: Amount of direct and indirect costs remaining after all gift aid (scholarship and grant) is subtracted.

Out-of-pocket Cost: Difference between the cost of attendance and all gift aid. Out-of-pocket cost can be covered through a variety of sources, including savings, income and educational loans.

Satisfactory Academic Progress: To be eligible for federal funds (Pell, FSEOG, Direct Loans, etc.) students must make satisfactory academic progress, meaning you are continuing to complete courses and maintain a required GPA based on your credit level. Please refer to the 正规赌篮球的软件 catalog for 正规赌篮球的软件’s SAP Standards.

Scholarship: Aid awarded to the student that does not need to be repaid. Scholarship awards are typically based on merit or a combination of merit and need, such as academic excellence, talent, affiliation with various groups, or career aspirations.

Verification: Process to confirm the accuracy of data provided by the applicant on the FAFSA. In order to complete the verification process, students are required to provide certain documents to a school for review.
