Revision in Fee Assessment Procedure for Summer Session

(6) On February 13, 1992, the Board of Trustees approved lengthening the Summer Session term to twelve weeks. The twelve-week term includes a four-week session and an eight-week session. Appropriate fee assessment is determined by prorating Summer Session fees on the basis of the Fall Semester fee schedule. In the accompanying documentation, provision was made for students who had advance enrolled in Session II, but had not enrolled in Session I, to have access to student fee supported services during Session I. This provision has been unworkable. Students are confused because the cut-off date by which they must register to be eligible falls at an awkward time. The policy is time consuming to enforce given the amount of time required to check student records to determine eligibility for service. Finally, the new UI Direct registration system is designed to provide for continuous access to registration for the Summer Session terms and the provision of "advanced enrolled" is no longer available. The chancellor at Urbana has now recommended revisions in the Summer Session Fees Policy. The proposed changes will remove the ambiguity in the current provision, ease the administrative burden on fee-supported offices, and create a policy compatible with the new UI Direct on-line registration system. The action would require the following changes in the policy statement: 1. Delete the paragraph: "Students enrolled in Session I and/or Session II will have access to fee-supported service for that term by payment of fees. All students who advance enroll for Session II by the first day of Session I will have access to the services for both Sessions I and II at no additional costs. All students who do not enroll in Session II are eligible to purchase service, as is current policy." 2. Substitute: "Students enrolled in Session I or Session II will have access to fee-supported service for that term only by payment of fees. All students who do not enroll are eligible to purchase service, as is current policy." The vice president for academic affairs concurs. I recommend approval.

On motion of Dr. Gindorf, this recommendation was approved.
