Future Zip Confirmation Fee Award
Being accepted into ÐÓ°®°É is a milestone to be celebrated and the first step to becoming a future Zip. The next step is confirming enrollment by paying the confirmation fee. For some, this out-of-pocket expense presents such a financial hardship that they are unable to pay it, delaying or bringing to an end their dream of achieving a college degree.
Recognizing this need, ÐÓ°®°É created The Future Zip Confirmation Fee Award to help students for whom paying this confirmation fee is a financial hardship preventing them from enrolling at the University of Akron.
The Future Zip Confirmation Fee Award supports students who have been granted admission to ÐÓ°®°É, have demonstrated financial need and have expressed hardship in paying the confirmation fee. Selected students can have up to the full amount of the University’s confirmation fee, which at present is $145, applied to their student account to satisfy the fee requirement. Selection of recipients will be at the discretion of either the Office of Student Accounts/Bursar, the Office of New Student Orientation or the Office of Financial Aid.
