Financial Clearance Guidelines for Undergraduates
California Lutheran University is incorporating new enrollment policies beginning with the 2010-11 academic year. Each student is required to gain financial clearance on their student account from the Business Office to keep any pre-registered classes for the upcoming semester.
Financial clearance is achieved when two things happen:
- The student returns a signed and completed Payment Contract to the Business Office and
- One of the following:
- The student remits payment for the estimated balance due on the pre-bill, via check or cash
- OR The student signs up for a Monthly Payment Plan to schedule automatic payments covering their outstanding account balance
- OR The student’s financial aid more than covers the tuition, fees, room and board expenses
The financial clearance deadline is January 6, 2012 for the spring 2012 semester. Students without financial clearance will have their enrolled courses canceled before the first day of class.
New International Wire Process with peerTransfer
California Lutheran University has partnered with peerTransfer to streamline the tuition payment process for our international students. With peerTransfer, you are offered excellent foreign exchange rates, allowing you to pay in your home currency (in most cases) and save a significant amount of money, as compared to traditional banks. You will also be notified via email when your payment is received by California Lutheran University.

Elective Tuition Insurance Program
(Specific to Traditional Undergraduates)
CLU introduces an elective insurance program offered by A. W. G. Dewar, Inc. The Tuition Refund Plan (TRP) is a tuition insurance program that significantly extends our own refund policy as published in the Student Accounts/Tuition and Fees section of this website.
The TRP plan protects your educational investment by reimbursing 75% of tuition, fees, room and board charges should your student withdraw from CLU due to a serious illness or accident. Please note: if the withdrawal is due to a mental or nervous disorder, 75% of the above fees are covered. In the event your son or daughter withdraws, the proceeds, after CLU's outstanding balance and any financial assistance reimbursements have been processed, will be refunded directly to the family.
Participation in the Tuition Refund Plan is entirely optional and our refund policy is applicable whether or not you enroll. CLU does not endorse this or any other private tuition insurance program; however, we are pleased to make you aware of A. W. G. Dewar and we encourage you to visit their website at www.collegerefund.com to determine the program's suitability for your individual circumstances. Enrollment for the 2011-12 academic year is closed.
If you have specific questions regarding the coverage, please call Dewar's at (617) 774-1555 or email: trp@dewarinsurance.com. You can also visit the A. W. G. Dewar website at: www.collegerefund.com.
