Payment
You may pay your fees via credit card on URSA or in person at the Administrative Main Cashier (1125 Murphy Hall). Payments in person can only be made by check, money order, or cash. Checks or money orders must be payable to UC Regents.
Students making payment through URSA should verify that fees have been assessed to their Summer BAR Account before making the payment.
NOTE: You are not dropped from a course or relieved of financial responsibility if you fail to attend classes, reverse your credit card charges, stop payment on your registration check, or if the bank does not honor your check or credit card. You must officially drop your courses through URSA. For information on how to drop a course, see the Adding or Dropping section.
Refunds
You may drop classes and receive a refund of course fees according to the refund schedule, provided you have met the conditions outlined in the section devoted to adding and dropping courses. The date used to calculate your refund is the date when you file a Student Update Form in person or enter the drop via URSA. Any outstanding bills you owe the University may be deducted from your Summer Sessions refund. Refunds normally take one to two weeks to process and are mailed to the address we have on file for you.
You are entitled to a refund of 100% of your course fees (minus the $100 deposit) if you drop your courses by Friday of the second week of each session using URSA or a Student Update Form. There is no refund of course fees after the Friday of the second week of each session.
For courses that meet for less than six weeks, please e-mail info@summer.ucla.edu for refund policies and procedures.
Refunds for UCLA Students who participate in Bruin Direct will be electronically deposited into their bank account.
Registration/Campus Fee Refunds
UC Students: UC students who drop all courses must pay a $100 processing fee.
Non-UC Students: You are entitled to a $200 refund of your $300 Registration/Campus Fee if you drop all your courses by the end of the second week of each session. After this date the entire Registration/Campus Fee is nonrefundable.
International students should consult the International Students section for Registration/Campus Fee refund policy.
No refunds are given after the second week of each session.
BAR (Billing and Receivables System)
BAR is UCLA's Billing and Receivable system used to track charges and payments to your account. It reflects account activity as of the last business day of the month.
Summer Sessions BAR account statements are accessible via URSA. It is your responsibility to review your BAR account via URSA and make payment by the due date. Student Accounting will send a monthly e-mail reminder if you have established a valid e-mail address via URSA.
The Summer BAR Statement reflects activity that is separate from the regular UCLA BAR statement. Do not use a regular UCLA statement to make a Summer Sessions payment, as your summer account will not be credited properly.
International students should refer to the International Students section for international fee and refund information.
If you enroll after May 1, 2008, you should not wait for an e-mail reminder to make your payment to the Administrative Main Cashier, since classes of non-UC students will be dropped on May 23, 2008 if there is an outstanding balance owed for Summer Sessions courses. It is your responsibility to know the amount owed. Do not anticipate that the University will automatically drop you from a class due to nonpayment.
