Fees & Bill Payment

Fees are assessed by UC Berkeley on a per-unit basis ($1955 per unit for Fall 2006).

In addition to the per-unit fee, the University has two additional fees that cannot be included in the per-unit fee assessment. The first of these two fees is the transit fee of $58.50 per semester (on your bills it will be called the CLPASS fee), which was voted on by the UC Berkeley student body. All students must pay this fee separately, and it cannot be waived.

     
  The second additional fee is the graduate student health insurance fee of $729.00 per semester (on your bills it will be called the HLTHINS fee). This fee can be waived by submitting the health insurance waiver form online. To waive this fee throughout the three years of your program, the health insurance waiver form must be completed each year.

Bill Payment
Fees are billed from the main campus system, CARS (Campus Accounts Receivable System). Bill payment is due promptly on August 15 for fall semester and January 15 for spring semester. The University accepts only cash, money orders, or checks for fee payment; credit cards or debit cards are not accepted. Checks or money orders must be in U.S. dollars from a U.S. bank payable to “UC Regents”. Write your Student ID number on your remittance. You may make your payment via the following five options:

  1. Mail fee payments to:
    Cashier's Office
    University of California Berkeley
    P.O. Box 24610
    Oakland, CA 94623-1610

    Mail employer vouchers to:
    Student Accounting
    University of California
    461 University Hall #1102
    Berkeley, CA 94720-1102
  2. Pay in person at the Billing and Payment Services Office, M - F, 8:30 AM - 4 PM (140 University Hall, 510-643-9803)
  3. Pay electronically through your bank's pay-by-phone service or online banking.
  4. To wire funds to the University, you will need the following:
    UC's Bank: Bank of America
    Bank ABA Routing #: 121000358
    Bank Account #: 0175380001
    Bank Address: 1850 Gateway Blvd, Concord, CA 94520
    Beneficiary: UC Regents
    Reference: You must include your SID number. Include name if there's room.

    UC Berkeley's bank may assess a $15-$25 fee for receiving a wire. If so, this fee will be deducted from the amount credited to the student's CARS account.

Regardless of method selected, late payments may result in a late fee being applied to your bill each month.

Defered Payment Plan (DPP)
A Deferred Payment Plan exists for those students who prefer to pay in five equal monthly installments. Twenty percent of the total assessed semester's fees are due on each of the payment dates. These dates are subject to change. A non-refundable participation fee of $40 is charged each semester for the DPP.

Fall payments are due:
August 15
September 15
October 15
November 15
December 15

Spring payments are due:
January 15
February 15
March 15
April 15
May 15

Financial Aid Disbursement
All financial aid payments are made in two disbursements: one-half in the fall semester and one-half in the spring semester. Funds cannot be disbursed before the beginning of classes. Federal loans are paid directly to your CARS account. If a balance remains after fees are paid in full, it is refunded to you via check or EFT. Funds cannot credit your CARS account until you are enrolled in at least six units and have completed your Direct Loan Master Promissory Note, Direct Loan Entrance Counseling Session and accepted your loans on BearFacts. The university now credits CARS with your private loan and disburses the remainder (after EWMBA fees are paid) to your bank account if you have signed up for EFT.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the timing of when new students enroll in fall classes, the system uploads and interfaces that must occur, funds will probably not be disbursed until two-three weeks after classes start.

Correspondence
All financial aid correspondence will come from the central campus financial aid office. From May 15 through August 15 correspondence is sent to your permanent address. During the school year all mail is sent to your local address. Keeping these addresses updated with the central campus is essential. Use your UC Berkeley student identification number (SID) and Berkeley personal information number (PIN) to update your address on BearFacts, and access your financial aid information.

We frequently utilize e-mail to notify admittees and students of important financial aid information. Once matriculated you will have a Haas e-mail account. Prior to this, please keep the Haas Financial Aid Office apprised of your personal e-mail address.
