ePay Troubleshooting Tips

If you are experiencing difficulties paying your bill through ePay, follow these steps to troubleshoot or call the Student Accounts Office for assistance.

  1. ePay is designed to work with Internet Explorer 6.0 and higher (with 128-bit encryption). If you use an older browser, you may need to upgrade to use ePay. 
  2. If your Internet service provider is AOL, you may need to open an additional browser session of ePay (this is because AOL's modified browser may not work correctly with some secure sites). To do this, access the Internet as you usually would. Once you are connected, launch an alternate browser such as Firefox, Chrome or Safari. If you do not have an alternate browser installed, you may need to download and install one.
  3. Your user ID is your Unity ID, the username you use to login to a UNCP network. Ensure you only use your Unity ID and not your entire email address. You should omit @bravemail.uncp.edu in the user ID box.
  4. For additional assistance, email student.accounts@uncp.edu with the following information:
  5. operating system
  6. browser version
  7. Internet service provider

UNCP understands that sometimes you need some help managing your tuition bill. We offer UNCP Tuition Payment Plan. Payment plans are convenient, manageable payment solutions that allow you to pay tuition in interest-free monthly installments rather than one lump sum. 

Tuition payment plans offer:

  • More time to pay. Spread your tuition payments over several months.
  • Interest savings. Use a payment plan to make interest-free monthly payments. You can also use a plan with traditional student loans and financial aid.
  • Convenience. You can enroll in a plan, manage your account and make payments online 24 hours daily.

To Determine your monthly payment:

  • Add total expenses for:
  • Tuition
  • Fees
  • On-campus housing
  • On-campus meal plan
  • Books cannot be budgeted into payment plans.
  • Minus any estimated aid
  • Divide by number of monthly payments.

 

Since you already have insurance coverage, complete the waiver online at www.bcbsnc.com/student  each fall and spring semester. 

Please print out and keep the confirmation number and email you receive for the student accounts office in case we need to contact the university's insurance provider on your behalf.

For more information, please refer to the following:

IRS Form 1098-T

The IRS Form 1098-T is provided, as required by the IRS, to provide information that may assist you in completing your tax return. The information on IRS Form 1098-T may differ from the amount you paid toward Qualified Tuition and Related Expenses. We strongly recommend seeking professional assistance when claiming an education tax credit. 

Regardless of the information provided on the 1098-T, if you claim an education tax credit, you should always keep documentation such as invoices and receipt of payment that supports any claimed tax credit, even if you report only what is on IRS Form 1098-T.

  • The IRS Form 1098-T is an information form filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
  • The IRS Form 1098-T that you receive reports amounts paid for qualified tuition and related expenses, as well as other related information
  • You, or the person who may claim you as a dependent, may be able to claim an education tax credit on IRS Form 1040 for the qualified tuition and related expenses that were paid during the calendar year.
  • All information that UNCP can or will provide you is either on the 1098-T form or is included on this webpage. We cannot discuss tax implications, how this form may relate to you or give tax advice. Please consult your tax preparer with all questions related to this document. Some helpful links to the IRS at the bottom of this page may provide more information on how Form 1098-T may affect you. As we cannot provide tax advice or the implications of the IRS Form 1098-T, we can only direct you or your tax preparer to this webpage to answer your questions.

Amounts Paid for Qualified Tuition and Related Expenses

Box 1 of IRS Form 1098-T reports the qualified tuition and related expenses paid during the calendar year. This is sometimes referred to as qualified education expenses, although the two are occasionally interchangeable. Consult a tax professional for an explanation. For purposes of IRS Form 1098-T, UNCP has determined, based on the interpretation of the limited IRS guidance provided, that the following charges are included or not in qualified tuition and related expenses. Please note that IRS Publication 970 states, "The amount on form 1098-T might differ from the amount you paid and are deemed to have paid." Further, IRS Form 8863 instructions state, "The amount of qualified Tuition and related expenses reported on Form 1098-T may not reflect the total amount of the qualified tuition and related expenses paid during the year for which you may claim the tax credit. You may include qualified tuition and related expenses not reported on IRS Form 1098-T when claiming one of the related credits if you can substantiate payment of these expenses."

Qualified Tuition and Related Expenses Included:

  • Resident and Non-resident Tuition
  • Program-specific charges (i.e., Tuition Differential for Masters Programs such as MBA, MS Accounting, MS Analytics, MHA)
  • Required General Fees (Excludes Health Services Access Charge)
  • Book Rental Fee (undergraduate)
  • ASG Fee (Association of Student Government)
  • Education & Technology Fee
  • Safety & Security Fee
  • Student Activity Fee (Summer charged separately, Fall/Spring included in General Fee - Both are included)

Charges not considered Qualified Tuition and Related expenses and therefore not included:

  • Housing-related charges
  • Dining, Meal Plans, Express Account Charges
  • Insurance (such as BCBS Student Blue Medical Insurance & Intern Practicum Charge (liability insurance)
  • Late Fees, Interest on Past Due Account
  • Library Fines, Fees
  • Orientation Fees
  • Parking Permit or fines
  • Health Services Access Fee
  • Other Health Service charges
  • Department fees for non-return or damage (i.e., Books not returned, equipment breakage)
  • Wellness Service Fee

Note: The timing of each charge and payment/scholarship is important, depending on which year they are reported. Many students have charges from November to December. Because, in that tax year, many students had payments larger than the the QTRE, the Box 1 amount for the  Spring term may have been included in the previous year's 1098-T. Also, in many of those same circumstances, the student received scholarships and grants for the Spring that did not post until January. This may cause the this year's 1098-T to have zero in Box 1, but Box would be populated. Please consult a tax prepared regarding what this means to your tax situation.

Adjustments Made for a Prior Year

Box 4 of IRS Form 1098-T reports adjustments to qualified tuition and related expenses calculated in a prior year. The amount reported in Box 4 represents a reduced tuition billed during a previous calendar year. For example, if you were billed in November-December and later had a reduction in the QTRE charges in this tax year(i.e., withdrawal or courses dropped), Box 4 reports the decrease in billed tuition due to the withdrawal or drop. The amount reported in Box 4 reports the decrease in QTRE from the withdrawal or drop of courses that reduced the QTRE. The amount reported in Box 4 for adjustments to qualified tuition and related expenses may reduce any allowable education credit you may claim for the prior year. See your tax advisor and/or IRS Form 8863/IRS Publication 970 for more information. 

Note: It is possible for the other boxes to be empty and only have a number in Box 4. As stated above, a reduction in qualified tuition and related expenses was calculated on the previous year's 1098-T that was reduced after December 31, but had no other reportable activity for the previous calendar year. Please consult a tax advisor and/or IRS Form 8863 and IRS Publication 970 for assistance.

Scholarships and/or Grants

Box 5 of IRS Form 1098-T reports the total scholarships or grants administered or processed by the Office of Student Accounts and/or the Office of Student Financial Aid during the calendar year. 

Please note that the timing of each charge and scholarship is important, depending on which year they are reported. Many students have charges from November to December the previous tax year. Because many students had payments larger than their QTRE, the Box 1 amount for the Spring this term may have been included in the the previous year's 1098-T. Also, in many of those same circumstances, the student received scholarships and grants for Spring this year that did not post until January. This may cause this year's 1098-T to have zero in Box 1 but Box would be populated. Please consult a tax prepared regarding what this means to your tax situation. 

The amount reported in Box 5 does not include:

  • Tuition waivers are provided during the calendar year.
  • Student Loans
  • Work Study
  • Employment
  • Scholarships, grants, reimbursements, or other types of sponsorships not administered by the Office of Student Accounts and/or the Office of Student Financial Aid.

Per IRS instruction, the amount of the Veterans Education Benefit received is included in Box 5.

CARES Act Higher Education Emergency Relief Funds (CARES HEERF)

Sections 3504, 18004, and 18008 of the Corona virus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), enacted on March 27, 2020, allow higher education institutions to use certain funds allocated by the Department of Education to support students and higher education institutions with expenses and financial needs related to the corona virus (COVID-19) pandemic. Based on guidance provided by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), we have not included any CARES HEERF Funds awarded to students in the 1098T. Other forms of emergency aid are required to be included in IRS Form 1098T.

Adjustments to Scholarships or Grants For a Prior Year

Box 6 of IRS Form 1098-T reports adjustments to scholarships or grants reported on a prior year Form 1098-T in Box 5. The amount reported in Box 6 represents reduced scholarships or grants reported for a previous calendar year. The amount reported in Box 6 for adjustments to scholarships or grants may affect the amount of the education credit you may claim for the prior year. See IRS Form 8863 for information on how to report these amounts.

Additional Information Reported

  • Box 7 indicates, if checked, that Box 1 includes amounts for an academic period beginning in the next year. For example, this box will be marked if you registered and paid for the upcoming Spring Semester during November or December.
  • Box 8 shows whether you are at least one-half of the normal full-time workload for at least one academic period during the calendar year. 
  • Box 9 shows whether you are enrolled in a program leading to a graduate-level degree, certificate or other recognized education credential.
