When do you pay your net cost for UCSB? Quarterly? Yearly? Before school session? After?

My net cost is about $13,741. Would this be divided over the three quarters and paid at the beginning or end of each quarter? Do i accept/reject loans now or at the time of payment? My EFC is about 3,470.

You will be billed quarterly before the quarter starts. (The hard part is paying around the holidays. :-S )
If you don’t pay, they drop you from your classes.

What @aunt bea stated ^^^^ prior to each quarter after you have registered for classes, you will be billed for tuition/housing/meal plan/insurance (if applicable). You should be billed in August 2016 for Fall 2016 quarter fees.

See your other thread, I don’t think your net cost will be quite that high, at least as far as what the university will bill you.

Take tuition, fees, room, board minus grants and scholarships to get your net price
