Stipend News!

We received word yesterday that Higher One has your stipend information. You should receive a check in the next 7-10 days -- if you do not receive a check in 10 days, please contact us so we can help you figure out where your money is.

Your check will be mailed to the address you have on file with Higher One. If you have moved since the last time you logged in to Higher One, your check will be mailed to the wrong address! You must contact Higher One as soon as possible to give them your correct address.

For those of you who started this summer, or those of you who've lost your login info, on Saturday, October 9th, we will have a workshop to help you log on to your Higher One account. You will need to update your address and other contact info, and select whether you want to receive the money on your card or if you want to receive a check.

We strongly recommend you DO NOT choose the card, that you request to receive a check -- each time you use the Higher One card, you are charged two dollars for the transaction (they take an extra two dollars out of your account every time you want to use your money. If you swipe your card to buy a Coke for $1.49, you pay $3.49 for that Coke).

If you need to reset your password or have forgotten your login info, please call the UB office to let us know (214-860-3628). Please help us spread the word to other MVC UB students!

Tutoring starts this week!

It was great seeing you all at Orientation Saturday! Our academic year has officially started -- which means you need to start logging your tutoring hours.

For those of you who attend Kimball, SOC, Molina, or GPHS, check the slideshow below to find out the days and rooms for tutoring. Those of you who attend other schools, you need to get tutoring from your classroom teachers and document your hours with the Outside Tutoring Form (which you can download and print here).

(We will have tutors at A. Maceo, South GP, and Dubiski, but we'll let you know when those tutoring sessions will begin. For now, please use the Outside Tutoring Form.)

Have you "liked" us on Facebook yet? It's a quick way to get updates and other info from MVC UB!
