SPRING SEMESTER 2024 REGISTRATION GUIDE
FEES AND DEBTS OWED TO THE INSTITUTION
Should a student or former student fail to pay a fee or a debt owed to the institution, the institution may "withhold permission to register, to use facilities for which a fee is authorized to be charged, to receive services, materials, food or merchandise or any combination of the above from any person owing a debt," until the debt is paid (see Title 5, California Code of Regulations, Sections 42380 and 42381).
Prospective students who register for courses offered by the university are obligated for the payment of fees associated with registration for those courses. Failure to cancel registration in any course for an academic term prior to the first day of the academic term gives rise to an obligation to pay student fees including any tuition for the reservation of space in the course.
The institution may withhold permission to register or receive diplomas or other services offered by the institution from anyone owing fees or another debt to the institution. The institution may also report the debt to a credit bureau, offset the amount due against any future state tax refunds due the student, refer the debt to an outside collection agency and/or charge reasonable attorney fees if litigation is necessary.
If a person believes they do not owe all or part of an asserted unpaid obligation, that person may contact Student Business Services. Student Business Services or another office on campus to which Student Business Services may refer the person, will review all pertinent information provided by the person and available to the campus and will advise the person of its conclusions.
STUDENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION FEES AND PAYMENTS
Please go to http://sbs.fullerton.edu/
to view a list of current fees.
The CSU makes every effort to keep student costs to a minimum. Fees listed in published schedules or student accounts may need to be increased when public funding is inadequate. Therefore, CSU must reserve the right, even after fees are initially charged or initial fee payments are made, to increase or modify any listed fees. All listed fees, other than mandatory systemwide fees, are subject to change without notice, until the date when instruction for a particular semester or quarter has begun. All CSU listed fees should be regarded as estimates that are subject to change upon approval by the Board of Trustees, the Chancellor, or the Presidents, as appropriate. Changes in mandatory systemwide fees will be made in accordance with the requirements of the Working Families Student Fee Transparency and Accountability Act (Sections 66028 - 66028.6 of the Education Code).
EMAIL ADDRESS
Each student has been issued an email address where university messages are sent. Student Business Services uses this email address as the primary communication mode to students. Be sure to check your email on a regular basis. For additional information about your email account, contact the Titan Help Desk at (657) 278-8888.
FEE PAYMENT DEADLINE (ALL STUDENTS)
Check TITAN Online for the date(s) on which you are eligible to register. For questions regarding your registration appointment, please contact the Office of the Registrar at (657) 278-7601. If you have any holds on your accounts, you must resolve them at least three business days before registering.
Do not sign up for an Installment Payment Plan until after you register for classes, or your account will not calculate your fees correctly.

Anticipated/Pending Financial Aid must be enough to cover all tuition and fees.
If Anticipated/Pending Financial Aid is not enough, students will be required to pay the difference to avoid disenrollment from all classes.
IMPORTANT!
Payments made online via the web are due by 11:30 PM on the due dates given by Titan Online (Web registration). In-person and mail-in payments are due by 5:00 PM on the date given by Titan Online after registering.
If you switch from part-time (0-6 units) to full-time (7+ units), you must pay your additional fees by the due date. If payment in full is not received, all of your classes are subject to disenrollment.
If you have decided not to attend CSUF for the current semester, please contact the Office of the Registrar to ensure that you are formally withdrawn from the University and no registration fees remain on your account. You are responsible for dropping all your classes in the event you are not disenrolled.
You will not receive an invoice for your registration fees. To ensure your fees are paid on time and to avoid disenrollment, please check both your financial aid application status and your student account regularly by logging into Titan Online via your student portal (fullerton.edu
) and click on your Titan Online "Student Homepage". Select "Financial Account" to view any current balances due.
If your financial aid consists of loan funds, you must formally accept a Direct Loan before it can be included in the anticipated aid. In addition, new borrowers must fill out an online Master Promissory Note and go through an online loan entrance counseling.
If you decline your loan and do not have other forms of financial aid, you are responsible for fee payment at the time you register.
If you are disenrolled for non-payment, waitlisted students will fill your space in the class and there is no guarantee that space will be available in classes that were dropped.
Students who register on/after the first day of instruction for any term will be assessed a $25.00 Late Registration Fee.
The University is not responsible for delays in the US Postal Service: postmarks are not considered.

FINANCIAL AID
If you have applied for financial aid, you may be eligible to postpone payment of your registration fees and Tuition Installment Payment Plan (TIPP) until your financial aid has disbursed at the beginning of the semester. To qualify for postponement of your fee payment, you must meet the condition below:
You have accepted a financial aid award at the time you register for classes and you have enough anticipated aid to cover your tuition fees, and/or TIPP payment.
-
Most grant funds are automatically accepted on your behalf. Therefore, if State University Grant (SUG), Education Opportunity Grant (EOP), Cal Grant A or B, Federal Pell Grant or Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) are accepted on your account, those funds can be used as anticipated aid to lower what is due now on your account. Those monies will be automatically deducted at the time of disbursement.
-
You must formally accept a loan in order to use those funds as anticipated aid to lower what is due now on your account. If you have been offered a Federal Direct Loan or a Dream Loan, go to Titan Online and "View Financial Aid". Click on the "Accept/Decline Awards" link and follow the instructions to accept the loan.
-
The "Financial Account" tile displays your fee charges and the "Financial Aid" tile displays your anticipated financial aid in the Student Homepage. If you do not have enough anticipated financial aid available to offset your charges in full, you must pay the balance.
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY FOR PAYMENT OF FEES
You are responsible for payment of your registration fees. If your financial aid award becomes unavailable for ANY reason or is insufficient to pay for fees as initially anticipated, you must pay the balance immediately upon notification. It is your responsibility to ensure that registration and tuition fees are paid in full. Check your student account regularly by logging into Titan Online via your student portal (fullerton.edu) and click on "Student Homepage".
Select "Financial Account" to view any current balances due.
STUDENTS RECEIVING FEE ASSISTANCE
Applications and requests must be submitted according to program guidelines.
THIRD PARTY CONTRACTS/SPONSORED STUDENTS
If a government agency, embassy or other organization will pay your registration and tuition fees, you must submit a current letter of financial guarantee via email to International Students and Scholars Office (at iss@fullerton.edu and Student Business Services at thirdparty@fullerton.edu) at least five business days prior to your TITAN registration appointment.
If this letter is not received prior to your registration appointment, you are responsible for paying your registration and tuition fees and may be subject to disenrollment if your payment is not received by the deadlines specified above.
