Once past an initial screen, students can access an account summary that will include any anticipated financial aid. If a student pays their term bill via a payment plan, they will also be able to access a schedule to see when their next payment is due.
Students also have the option of viewing what Schnare called a "detail for the term" which is comparable to a monthly statement. They can access archived monthly statements that go back as far as the fall term of 1998.
Another added bonus of the site is that it allows students to view all the addresses that the University has on record for them so that they can verify that their term bills are being sent to the correct address.
"We hope people will be pleased with [the site]," said Schnare. "We hope it will help students answer the simpler questions, like 'Did I get credit from the library?' and 'Did that payment ever come in?'"
Human representatives will still be available for knottier questions, Schnare said.
But the website will allow office employees to spend less time answering questions that the students should be able to answer themselves.
Students yesterday said they appreciate the new convenience.
