insurance plan on their schedule bill. Students have until the 15th
class day each term to waive this student insurance coverage. Students
who drop below 7 credits by the 15th class day, and have not specifically
requested insurance enrollment either through the internet (cyberbear.umt.edu)
or completing enrollment forms, are automatically dropped from the
plan and the premium amount is credited to the student's account.
After the 15th class day, students may petition to waive the
coverage. Proof of other insurance must be provided to the Student
Insurance Representative located in room 111 of the Curry Health
Center. No waiver will be granted after the end of the term.

insurance while attending the University, regardless of the number
of credits taken. Written proof of comparable coverage, in English,

of fees and finalization (returning the white copy of the schedule/bill
to Business Services) or finalize via cyberbear.umt.edu, during
the scheduled registration period (see current Schedule of Classes)
is assessed a late registration fee of $40.00. After the fifteenth
class day, a petition is required to register and, if approved,
an additional $80.00 may be assessed.
Dishonored Checks
A charge of $15.00 will be assessed on checks returned from the
bank. Any check tendered in payment of registration fees and not
honored by the bank upon which it is drawn may result in cancellation
of a student's registration. The student will be assessed the late
registration fee of $80.00 maximum in addition to the $15.00 service
charge.
Fee Policy on Drop/Adds
Students must pay for all courses for which they are enrolled at
registration. However, within the first fifteen class days, they
may drop or add courses. The courses for which students are enrolled
on the fifteenth class day will determine any fee adjustments (see
fee schedule) or financial aid adjustments. Beginning the sixteenth
class day, courses dropped will not result in a reduction of fees
but courses added will increase credit hour enrollment and may result
in an additional charge. Financial aid adjustments are not made
for any activity after the fifteenth day of classes.
Drop/Add Processing Fee
A $10.00 processing fee will be charged for each course that is
added after the fifteenth class day or dropped after the twenty-fifth
class day. See the summer class schedule for summer session deadlines.
Continuous Deferred Fee Payment Plan
The Board of Regents of Higher Education have authorized a continuous
deferred fee payment plan which provides for the payment of at least
one third of the total fees along with a $30.00 administrative charge
at the time of registration, payment of one third approximately
30 days after registration and payment of the full balance approximately
60 days after registration. Registration, Incidental, Health Service,
Activity, Kaimin, Recycling, Academic Facilities, Computer, Equipment,
Athletic, Campus Recreation, Radio, University Center and Building
Fees, and Residence Halls and Dining Service charges less any Financial
Aid may be deferred. The signing and adherence to the terms and
conditions of a promissory note will be required and no fees may
be deferred by any person who owes the University any fees, fines,
loans or other charges or who has previously deferred fees and failed
to make timely payments. A $15.00 fee will be assessed eachtime
a payment is late. This plan is not available for the summer session.
Monthly Bill Statements
Students will be mailed statements on a monthly basis. It is the
student's responsibility to keep their mailing address current.
Payment for billed amounts are due by the due date showing on the
statement. Failure to make timely payments will result in an interest
charge assessed on balances not paid in full by the following monthly
billing.
Non Payment
No person who owes the University any fees, fines or other charges
will be permitted to (1) receive academic credit or grades;
(2) register; (3) secure any transcript, diploma or
record; or, (4) access any University facilities or
services, regardless of the relationship thereof to the amount owed,
until the full amount due has been paid or satisfactorily adjusted
with Business Services. Interest may be charged at the rate of 8%
on the balance due from the day after the due date until the full
amount has been paid and any attorney's fees or other costs or charges
necessary for the collection of the amount owed may be added to
the balance due. The University shall have the right to apply any
portion of any amount it may owe such individual for any reason,
including wages, to payment of the balance owed to the University.
Determination of
In-State Fee Status
The Montana University System classifies all students as either
in-state or out-of-state. This classification affects admission
decisions and fee determinations. The basic rules for making the
classification are found in Board of Regents' Policy. It is each
student's responsibility to secure and review a copy of the policy.
Failure to be aware of the rules will not be cause for granting
any exceptions to them. A copy of the policy is available from the
Admissions Office or the Registrar's Office. It is important to
bear in mind that each residency determination is based on the unique
set of facts found in each individual's case. If you have questions
concerning your particular case, be sure to contact the unit to
which you are applying for admission or at which you are already
enrolled. Generally, the Admissions Office or the Registrar's Office
will be able to assist you.
With certain exceptions, in order to be eligible for in-state status,
a person must meet a 12-month durational residency test. You will
have to demonstrate a bona fide intent to become a Montana resident.
The 12-month period does not start until some act indicative of
an intent to establish residency is taken. Mere presence in Montana
or enrollment at a unit will not serve to start this period. Sufficient
acts to start the period are registration to vote, obtaining a Montana
driver's license, registration of a motor vehicle in Montana, purchase
of a home in Montana, filing of a resident Montana tax return. If
and only if none of these indicators is applicable to you, you may
file an Affidavit of Intent to Establish Residency in order to begin
the 12-month period. Such an affidavit must be filed with the unit,
and you should check with the unit to see if such an affidavit is
applicable in your case.
After the 12-month period has commenced, you are expected to act
in a manner consistent with Montana residency and to do all those
things required by law of a Montana resident. Any actions inconsistent
with or in contradiction of a claim of Montana residency may result
in your classification as out-of-state. For example, voting absentee
in another state, participation in our exchange program affecting
fee status, e.g. WUE or NSE, and receiving financial aid based on
non-Montana residency (such as a state scholarship) or receiving
the majority of your financial support from outside Montana (a minor
or unemancipated person's residency is presumed to be that of the
parents or legal guardian). It is presumed that any person who is
registered in excess of one-half of a full-time credit load is present
in the state primarily for educational purposes and such period
may not generally be applied to the 12-month waiting period. A Montana
driver's license should be obtained within the 12-month period.
Close attention is paid to meeting the income tax filing requirements.
All taxable income earned during the 12-month period must be reported.
The policy lists various acts that are consistent with a claim of
Montana residency.
In addition to acquiring in-state status based on residency, you
may be eligible for in-state status based on one or more exceptions
provided for in Regents' policy. Because they are exceptions, these
additional means of acquiring in-state status will be strictly construed.
It is important to note that in-state status under an exception
can be lost if you no longer meet the requirements for the exception
to apply. Consequently, if you can also meet the requirements for
in-state status based on 12-month residency, it is to your advantage
to be classified based on residency rather than on an exception.
All presently enrolled students have a classification, and applicants
for admission will be classified by the appropriate college or university
upon receipt of their applications. The initial classification can
be appealed, and students are permitted to petition for reclassification
at any time. In order to be eligible for in-state status for fee
purposes, it is necessary to apply for and meet the requirements
for such status on or before the 15th instructional day of the semester
for which the status is sought. When a student petitions or meets
the requirements after the 15th instructional day, a change in classification,
if granted, will not be retroactive and will become effective for
the next term. Reclassification is not automatic and will not occur
unless the individual so petitions. It is the student's responsibility
to meet any filing deadlines that are imposed by the appropriate
unit of the System. All students should check with their appropriate
unit to determine the time limits for filing. The appeal process
is given in the Regents' policy.
