Payment deadlines
Students are expected to pay all fees and charges that they incur. The standard "Due Date" for payments is the 15th of each month. If the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday, the due date is moved to the following business day. In-person payments must arrive by 3 PM PST or 4 PM PST if made online via R'Web or check/money order in the Cashier's drop box.
Students receiving financial aid must be enrolled before the funds can be electronically disbursed to offset charges. The amount due from the student, plus any waiver or deferment, must equal the amount due on the student account. Students can submit a completed Deferment of Fee (DOF) form and the sponsor authorization letter every quarter to avoid late payment penalty fees.
Balance due amounts not paid by payment deadlines may result in additional charges being assessed on the student account. Payments can be made online via R'Web using ACH/eCheck, or credit cards such as Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, and Convera (International Funds Transfer). A non-refundable service fee is charged for credit/debit card payments.
Checks and money orders should be made payable to "UC Regents" in US Dollars and drawn on funds from a US bank. Cash, check, and money order payments can also be made in person at the Main Cashiers Office window or drop box.

Financial aid
The University of California, Riverside (UCR) offers a range of financial aid options to assist students in covering the costs of their education. Here is a detailed guide on financial aid at UCR:
Applying for Financial Aid
UCR encourages students to apply for financial aid by submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the California Dream Act Application (CADAA). The university recommends filing these applications annually, as it provides students with the opportunity to be considered for various forms of financial assistance. Additionally, UCR provides access to Scholarship Universe, a scholarship-matching tool that simplifies the process of finding scholarships that align with students' unique profiles and interests.
Types of Financial Aid
Scholarships and Grants
UCR offers a variety of scholarships and grants to its students. The university's Net Price Calculator helps students estimate their potential financial aid award, providing a more accurate understanding of their financial standing. Notably, 98% of financial aid recipients at UCR receive gift aid in the form of grants and/or scholarships.
Student Loans
UCR students can also apply for student loans to finance their education. The university's HOSS Information Specialists are available to guide students through the process of understanding and applying for student loans. It is important to note that UCR undergraduate students who borrow federal loans graduate with an average student loan debt of $21,500, which is significantly lower than the total cost of tuition and housing.
Payment Methods
UCR offers several methods for students to make payments towards their accounts. The university accepts payments through the R'Web platform, where students can use their online student accounts to pay via credit or debit card. Additionally, payments can be made in person at the Main Cashiers Office or dropped off in the Cashier's Drop Box. Accepted forms of payment for in-person transactions include cash, personal checks, bank checks, and money orders. International students have the option to use Convera for international funds transfers.
Refund Process
UCR processes refund checks weekly, mailing them out on Tuesday mornings to students' local addresses. Students seeking faster refunds can sign up for direct deposit, which is processed nightly. Additionally, UCR offers the FSA Pay pilot program, providing students with a convenient debit card option to receive their financial aid refunds.
