Student Addresses                     

Why are Addresses Important?
Not getting important mail can create serious problems for students. Important mail includes midterm progress reports, University bills, financial aid notifications, requests for additional information, and reasonable academic progress advisory letters.  Note that grade reports are no longer mailed.  You will receive an email letting you know when you can access them using MyUSI.

Why is There More Than One Address?
On the University's computer system, you can have one or more addresses. They are classified as permanent, local, and billing. You can also request a next of kin address which would not be used except in emergencies.

One address can serve all three functions: permanent, local, and billing. You are not required to have multiple addresses. However, if you live in campus housing, your campus address will automatically become your local address. It is important to update your addresses anytime you move and at the end of the spring semester.

To Which Address Does Financial Aid Information Go?
All financial assistance mail goes to the permanent address in summer and the local address during academic year. Enrolled students must sign off on address change requests in the USI Office of the Registrar. Changing your address on your FAFSA or other financial aid forms will not update your official University address.

Through Summer of 2006, University Bills Require a Response!
Bills go to the permanent address unless you have designated a billing address. It is extremely important that you receive your bill. Even if your financial aid will pay your bill in full, bills must be signed and returned to guarantee your class schedule. If bills are not returned with proper payment (or signatures on paid-in-full bills), it is assumed that you are not returning and your class schedule will be cancelled to make room for students who register later.

This process is repeated each semester and for each summer session. Remember, for all terms, you must sign and return your bill!

So...Keep your address(es) up to date with the University's Admission Office before you enroll and the Registrar's Office after you enroll.  You can also use MyUSI to keep your address(es) up to date.
