Students are required to acknowledge and agree to the following Financial Obligation Statement as part of the registration process:
I understand and agree to make full payment for all amounts owed to Xavier University School of Veterinary Medicine (XUSOVM) in connection with my enrollment in and completion of the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) program, including but not limited to tuition, fees, insurance, housing charges, and other miscellaneous expenses that may become due.
I understand that student loans, scholarships, sponsorships, and other forms of financial assistance are not guaranteed by XUSOVM and may be reduced, suspended, withdrawn, or cancelled at any time without prior notice. I acknowledge that the availability of financial aid does not relieve me of my responsibility to satisfy all financial obligations owed to the University.
I understand that failure to make full payment may jeopardize my ability to continue attending classes, laboratories, clinical activities, or clinical rotations, and may result in late payment fees and other penalties being added to my account.
I further understand and agree that if I withdraw from XUSOVM, I remain responsible for any unpaid balance. Continued non-payment may result in my account being referred to a collection agency, and all reasonable collection costs, including attorney fees, court costs, and other related expenses, shall become due and payable by me.
I understand that XUSOVM will not release official transcripts, enrollment verifications, diplomas, letters of good standing, or other official academic records while any outstanding balance remains unpaid.
I understand and agree that all disputes arising from tuition, fees, payments, collections, or other financial matters shall be governed by and subject to the laws and jurisdiction of Aruba.
I understand that issuing a non-sufficient funds (NSF) check, providing an invalid credit card, disputing a valid credit card charge, or otherwise interfering with payment processing may result in the forfeiture of any scholarships or financial awards previously granted and may render me ineligible for future scholarships or institutional financial assistance.
I understand that until my account balance has been paid in full, or I have been granted an approved payment plan and remain in compliance with its terms, I may not be eligible for University-sponsored health insurance coverage. I accept full responsibility for any medical expenses incurred during periods in which I am not covered by health insurance.
I understand that health insurance coverage, when applicable, will become effective only after all required payments and enrollment requirements have been satisfied.
