Midterms are often a time for students to gain a clear picture of where they stand academically. There are many academic resources on campus that can support your student&#8217;s academic journey, including the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/library\/services\/writing-and-communication-center\">Writing Center<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/arts-and-sciences\/mathematics\/student-resources\/plaza\">Math Plaza<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/enrollment-management-and-student-affairs\/academic-support-and-advisement\">Center for Academic Support and Advisement<\/a><\/strong>, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/enrollment-management-and-student-affairs\/disability-resource-center\">Disability Resource Center<\/a><\/strong>. Advising plays a large role in helping your students plan for their future at UTC, remind your student to schedule their advising appointment for this semester soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recognize that this season can bring pressure. Encouragement from home continues to make a powerful difference. A quick text, a call, or a simple reminder that you\u2019re proud of their effort, not just their grades, can help with motivation during this busy stretch. Beyond the classroom, spring activities are in full swing, offering meaningful opportunities for leadership, service, connection, and some fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One way you can connect with your student and the UTC campus is by attending our annual <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.utc.edu\/enrollment-management-and-student-affairs\/center-for-student-leadership-engagement-and-community\/parent-and-family-association\/spring-family-day\">Spring Family Day<\/a><\/strong> on March 28th.

We wish each of you a safe and enjoyable break.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to ongoing mail delays, we strongly encourage students to enroll in ACH\/Direct Deposit for refunds through their&nbsp;MyMocsNet&nbsp;account. This secure&nbsp;option&nbsp;provides the fastest access to your funds. Paper refund checks are mailed to the permanent address on file and may take 5\u201310 or more days to arrive via USPS.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need&nbsp;assistance&nbsp;setting up direct deposit, please visit www.utc.edu\/bursar, select the \u201cVideo Instructions\u201d tab in the center of the page, and watch the video titled \u201cBursar Series: Direct Deposit.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For students enrolled in the Tuition Installment Payment Plan (TIPP) for the Spring semester, the third payment was due March 1, and the final payment is due April 1. A $50 late fee is assessed on the 4th of the month if a scheduled payment is not received. Please be aware that outstanding balances may&nbsp;impact&nbsp;future course registration. Accounts with unpaid balances will have a hold placed on April 2.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 1098-T tax form is now available in each student\u2019s&nbsp;MyMocsNet&nbsp;account.
