Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does the Student Activity Fee cover?

  • Can I waive the Student Health Fee

    The Student Health Fee is not waivable. The Student Health Fee (previously the "Health & Counseling Fee, HCF") is assessed to most DU students, but is not a charge for individual services or coverage. Rather, the Fee supports no additional cost prevention education, wellness, and crisis support services available to all students, such as 24/7 medical and mental health consultations, Health Promotion education events and supplies, and no-cost services as needed from CAPE (the Center for Advocacy, Prevention, & Empowerment).

  • When are holds and late fees generated?

    Late fees may be assessed on past due balances on the first of each month.

    Financial holds are placed on student accounts when they become 30 days past due. After the overdue balances are paid in full, holds will be lifted. In accordance with the Office of Student Billing Financial Holds Policy, financial holds prevent registration for future terms, as well as automatic release of official transcripts and diplomas.
