Need help understanding your billing statement?
No worries! The SFC can help!
The Financial Aid office has posted yout billing statement on the “my bill” tab of your UC Merced student portal.
Your "Authorized Aid Balance" is how much financial aid you have to cover your "Overall Balance".
If the amount is negative under "Bill Balance" or “Pay Now” then that is how much you'll receive as a refund, but if it is a positive amount, then that is how much you need to cover out of pocket by Wednesday August 19th.
