Student Account Statements

Student and Departmental Account Services produces statements itemizing the activity on student accounts. Statements are mailed in the student's name to their preferred address on record with the school. If the student wishes his or her statement to go to an address other than the preferred address, he or she can specify a unique billing address. Such a request must be submitted in writing to Student and Departmental Account Services.

E-Bill offers students the opportunity to access a PDF version of the statements generated by Student and Departmental Account Services. Additionally, students can view a real time account itemization through WebAdvisor.

In the fall and spring, the first statement of each semester is generated well before the beginning of the semester. Fall semester statements are mailed in July and spring semester statements are mailed in November. The fall deadline to settle one's student account typically is in mid-August. The spring deadline to settle one's student account typically is in mid-December. If class registration occurs after the semester due date has passed, payment is due at the time of registration. Monthly statements will be generated if, for one reason or another, the student's account is carrying a balance due after the semester due date.

In the summer, the school does not mail statements in advance of the semester's start. To avoid any late payment penalties, the student's account must be settled by the first day of the session(s) in which he or she is enrolled, whether or not they have received a statement.

Certain forms of financial aid, such as Federal Stafford Loans, Federal Perkins Loans, Federal Graduate PLUS Loans, Federal PLUS Loans and private education loans may not appear on the initial account statement. These funds are scheduled for disbursement to Lewis & Clark at the beginning of each semester. If the student has elected to borrow under an educational loan program and has completed the additional steps outlined in the financial aid award guide to secure loan funding, Lewis & Clark will consider those funds to be fully processed. If the fully processed financial aid is not reflected on the statement, deduct the net proceeds from the balance due. Remit payment of only those balances not covered by the net proceeds of fully processed financial aid.

Please note: 0% - 4% in guarantee and origination fees may be deducted from Federal Stafford, Federal PLUS and Federal Graduate PLUS disbursements. Your lender can confirm the amount, if any, that will be withheld in the form of fees at the time of disbursement.

If anticipated financial aid funds are not disbursed to the student's account shortly after the start of the semester, it may be an indication that the student needs to take additional action. Please refer to the information provided with the award notification to confirm that the steps necessary to receive funding have been completed. Contact the Office of Student Financial Services with any questions at 503-768-7090 or sfs@lclark.edu.

Federal Work-Study (FWS) funds will not appear on the statement of account and may not be deducted from the balance of one's student account. FWS earnings are disbursed directly to students in the form of a monthly paycheck, based on actual hours worked during the pay period.
