International Baccalaureate

The university grants 8 quarter units credit for each International Baccalaureate (IB) higher level examination on which a student scores 5 or higher. Higher level examinations are considered honors courses. The university does not grant credit for subsidiary level examinations. Some higher level examinations may be considered equivalent to freshman level courses in the subject and may be used to satisfy general education or breadth requirements. The units granted for IB examinations are not counted toward the maximum number of credits required for formal declaration of an undergraduate major or the maximum number of units one may accumulate prior to graduation from the university. Students who enter the university with IB credit do not have to declare a major earlier than other students nor are they required to graduate earlier.

The university grants credit for all College Board Advanced Placement Tests for which a student scores 3 or higher. The credit may be subject credit, graduation credit, or credit toward general education or breadth requirements, as determined by each college office.

The units granted for AP tests are not counted toward the maximum number of credits required for formal declaration of an undergraduate major or the maximum number of units a student may accumulate prior to graduation from the university. Students who enter the university with AP credit do not have to declare a major earlier than other students, nor are they required to graduate earlier. College courses taken prior to or after enrolling at the university may duplicate the content of AP examinations. In these cases, the university may not award credit for both the course and the AP exam. The university grants credit for Advanced Placement tests as described below.

Student expenses depend upon a great many factors that should be considered carefully before planning a budget. Financial help needed — beyond funds that students or their families are able to provide — should be determined well in advance of the entering quarter. Use the charts in this section as guides to planning and visit finaid.ucr.edu for detailed information on costs to attend UCR.

Students pay nonresident supplemental tuition if they have not been living in California for more than one year immediately prior to the residence determination date for the term in which they propose to register at UCR. Along with the criterion physical presence, the other criteria are intent to become a California resident and financial independence. Information on these three criteria is provided at registrar.ucr.edu and below, under Residence for Tuition Purposes.

Residence classification of new, readmitted, and continuing students is made for each term and at each campus of the UC. Classifications are based on evidence presented in and supporting each student’s Statement of Legal Residence. Students sign all Statement of Legal Residence forms under oath, and further information required may need to be provided under oath, by declaration or affidavit.

The residence determination date is the day instruction begins at the last of the UC campuses to open for the quarter and, for schools on the semester system, the day instruction begins for the semester. Students classified as nonresidents retain that status until they apply for, and receive, a new classification. Students planning to file for residence status after their first year should talk with the residence affairs officer well before the appropriate residence determination date, preferably during their first few weeks in California. Students may apply for classification as California residents as soon as they meet all three criteria for residence and, if successful in changing their status, would not pay nonresident supplemental tuition for subsequent quarters if they continued to meet the criteria.

Residence Determination All questions concerning residency are referred to the residence affairs officer in the Office of the Registrar. No other campus personnel are authorized to supply information regarding residence requirements for tuition purposes. Students wishing to appeal a final decision on residence classification by the residence affairs officer are assisted and referred to the appropriate member of the General Counsel’s Office.

Late fees are assessed to students who fail to make payments or file forms by published deadlines. Late enrollment and late registration fees may be waived only for the following reasons: student health problems verified by a physician; death in the family; or a verified administrative error on the part of the university.

Dependents of Veterans The California Education Code provides for exemp- tion from certain fees at state-owned colleges, universities, and other schools for eligible students who are dependents or spouses of veterans whose death or disability was service connected. Qualifying UCR students are eligible for exemption from the Student Services Fee, tuition, and Pro- fessional Degree Supplemental Tuition. Claims for fee exemptions must be presented to the university during the academic year for which the claim applies. Retroactive approval can be granted only in situations in which students applied for the exemption in a timely manner but approval was delayed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs processing of an origi- nal or reopened service-connected disability compensation or Dependency and Indemnity Compensation claim. Contact the Financial Aid Office, 2106 Student Services Building, (951) 827-3878, for information. Exemption from Nonresident Supplemental Tuition Some students may be eligible for exemption from nonresident supplemental tuition. Visit registrar. ucr.edu for information.

Employees A regular status employee who meets the admission require- ments of the university is eligible for a two-thirds reduction of both the Student Services Fee and tuition for up to 9 units or three regular-session university courses per quarter or semester, whichever is greater. An employee so registered is ineligible for the services and facilities of the counseling center, gymnasiums, or the student health services, other than those to which the employee may be otherwise entitled.

Doctoral Students Advanced to Candidacy Students who are considered nonresidents for tuition purposes and are advanced to candidacy for the Ph.D. as of the first day of Fall 2006 receive a reduction of 100% of the nonresident supplemental tuition. Students are eligible for a maximum of three calendar years. Time spent not registered (withdrawn, on leave, or on filing fee status) counts toward the three-year total unless the graduate dean grants an exception. Students must be advanced by the first day of the academic term to qualify for that term. Students who are currently advanced will qualify for the reduction if they have not been advanced for more than three years. For example, if a student advanced prior to the first day of the Fall 2008 term, the student will be qualified for the reduction for 2008-09, 2009-2010, and 2010-2011. If not finished by Spring 2011, the student will be required to pay full fees beginning Fall 2011.

The Deferred Payment Plan (DPP) offers students an opportunity to pay their quarterly fees and tuition in three monthly installments. For each quarter of participation, a new application must be submitted through rweb.ucr.edu, with a processing fee of $25. Visit sbs.ucr.edu/students/ deferred_payment_plan.html for more information.

Students who withdraw from all courses before the end of a quarter may be eligible to receive refunds for some fees. Go to http://registrar.ucr.edu/ registrar/tuition-and-fees/refund-table.html for more information on the refund schedule. A withdrawal petition must be obtained from myforms.ucr. edu or from the Graduate Division. In accordance with federal regulations, refunds to financial aid recipients are first applied to repayment of aid disbursed.

The effective date for determining a refund of fees is the date the student files an official notice of withdrawal with the university. It is presumed that no university services will be provided to the student after that date.

Beginning the second day of instruction, the Student Services Fee, tuition, UCR campus fees, Professional Degree Supplemental Tuition, and nonresident supplemental tuition are refunded on a prorated basis.

Course Material Fees and the Student Technology Course Material Fee are not refundable after the end of the add/drop period.

Refunds for health insurance vary. Consult the Student Health Services , Veitch Student Center, (951) 827-5683.

The Medical School Disability Insurance Fee is not refunded unless the student requests a prorated refund when withdrawing from UCR. Consult the School of Medicine at (951) 827-4333 for information about the refund of insurance benefits after withdrawal. Self-supporting programs may have different refund policies. To learn more go to registrar.ucr.edu for published refund policies.

For details concerning fees and fee refunds, consult Fees and Enrollment at ucop.edu/operating-budget/.

Fee refunds for new students receiving Title IV federal financial aid are as follows:

Prior To and Including Day 1 Prior to and including the first day of instruction, the Student Services Fee is refunded except for the $100 Statement of Intent to Register deposit paid by undergraduates. Other eligible fees paid are refunded in full.

Day 2 and After Beginning the second day of instruction, the Student Services Fee is refunded on a prorated basis except for the $100 Statement of Intent to Register deposit. Refunds of other eligible fees are prorated as shown in the Schedule of Refunds table in this section.

New students receiving Title IV federal financial aid who withdraw during their first quarter at UCR receive a prorated refund if they withdraw by the end of the sixth week of the quarter.

Refunds for all continuing and readmitted students are as follows: Prior To and Including Day 1 Prior to and including the first day of instruction, eligible fees paid are refunded in full.

Day 2 and After Beginning the second day of instruction, a prorated refund is given for eligible fees paid.

If students withdraw during a quarter, federal regulations require UCR to calculate the amount of federal financial aid that has been “earned” for the period they attended. If they withdraw before completing 60 percent of the quarter, a pro rata portion of the aid must be returned to the federal government. Any portion of unearned aid that must be returned to federal aid programs by UCR will be deducted from the amount of the tuition and fee and/or housing refund. If the amount UCR must return to federal aid programs exceeds the amount of the student’s institutional refund, the student’s account may be billed. More information regarding the return of Title IV federal aid requirements is available at finaid.ucr.edu.

If a Housing or Registration refund is due to a student under UCR’s refund policy and the student received financial aid under any aid program other than Federal Work-Study, the refund shall be returned to student assistance programs in the following order: outstanding balances on Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan, Federal Direct Stafford Loan, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Direct PLUS Loan, Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Cal Grant A or B, UC Student Loan, Grant-in-Aid State, other institutional grants or scholarships. The portion of a refund allocated to a program may not exceed the amount a student received from that program.
