Spring 2023 Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) Policies

Dear Herky,

You are registered at the University of Iowa under Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) for the spring 2023 semester. This information is also sent in a letter to your residing address. As of Jan. 18, 2023, you are registered for the following course(s) under PSEO:

ABCD:1234:XYZ1

MyUI has the most up-to-date information about your schedule, including course times and locations. Login to MyUI with your HawkID and password. Use HawkID Tools if you have forgotten your HawkID or need to change your password.

Textbooks

Textbooks for your PSEO course will be loaned to you for the semester if they are not already provided through your course. Required materials will be ordered for you from the Iowa Hawk Shop and University Bookstore. You do not need to order any required materials for your course. You will receive additional textbook information via your UI email address. At the end of the semester, you must return your book(s). You will receive additional return information via your UI email in May.

Registration changes

If you register for a different approved course after you receive this letter, contact ui-pseo@uiowa.edu to prevent tuition charges and textbook delays.

PSEO checklist

• Activate your @uiowa.edu email in MyUI. Email is the official communication for all university business. If you have questions about your @uiowa.edu email, contact Information Technology Services (ITS).
• University student records are protected under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). If you wish for UI staff to be able to discuss your academic record (enrollment, grades, etc.) with your parent/guardian, you can create a Student Record Consent Form in MyUI. See the Release of Information web page for more information.
• Review the Academic Policies Handbook and the Code of Student Life to learn more about your rights and responsibilities as a registered student.
• Review deadlines for your course and the withdrawal schedule on the Academic Calendar or Course Deadlines lookup tool.

Billing information

A PSEO student’s school district pays tuition for courses that have been approved by the school district and are successfully completed. If a student drops*, withdraws** from, or fails a course, the student is responsible for reimbursing the school district.

*Drop:  A student cancels registration in a single course while remaining registered in one or more courses. The student is responsible for reimbursing the school district $250 for course drops initiated after Jan. 30, 2023.

**Withdraw:  A student cancels registration entirely for the semester. If you drop the only course you are enrolled in, you are withdrawing from the university.

Tuition for PSEO courses is $250 per course, charged to the school district. If you withdraw during any of these times, you will be responsible for reimbursing your school district. This means PSEO students will be responsible for reimbursing the school district $250 per course if withdrawing after Feb. 12, 2023.

Additional information

• Registration in courses not approved by the student’s school district under PSEO will be billed at the full rate of tuition and fees.
• Auditing courses is specifically not allowed under PSEO. If a student changes their registration to audit status, the course will no longer be eligible for the PSEO program and full tuition and fees will be billed to the student for that course.
• Grade reports and transcripts will be sent to your high school at the end of the university’s semester.

If you decide not to attend, please contact your University of Iowa advisor and drop your course(s) in MyUI to cancel your registration prior to the first day of classes.

Sincerely,
