The Student Finance Office will assist students in their financial planning. Financial aid is available to qualified recipients in the form of scholarships, grants, loans, and work opportunities. However, responsibility for payment of Southern Adventist University expenses rests with the student, regardless of any assistance which may be expected or received.
Each year, before registering, each student must sign the Financial Responsibility Agreement indicating acknowledgment of this responsibility.
Information on student costs and means of paying those costs is given throughout this "Financial Policies" section of the Catalog to assist students in financial planning. Student financial responsibility includes awareness of this information and the willingness to seek assistance from the Student Finance Office when help is needed.
Any charges to a student's account, outside of the normal educational expenses, must be approved by the Student Finance Office. Examples of charges which will not be approved are student club dues.
