 Hi, I'm Lauren. I'm a current student at the University of Vermont and I work for Student Financial Services. Today I'm making a video to discuss how to mail your 529 payments to the University of Vermont. To begin, fall semester billing emails are issued to students and their proxies around mid-July. The spring semester billing emails are issued around early December. These are important dates to know because you need to contact your 529 plan administrator to request a distribution to be sent payable to the University of Vermont. 529 distributions are most often sent directly to the University via paper check, so it's very important to provide UVM's lockbox address along with the student's information. You can send these payments to the University of Vermont PO Box 1306, Wilson, Vermont 05495. The check memo should include the student's name along with the student's UVM ID number, which is a 9-digit code beginning with 9-5. This information that I just said can be found off of SFS, Student Financial Services, homepage off of UVM.edu. When you go to the SFS page, under billing and payment info, there is a payment options button, which you can click on, which will then take you to a screen that looks like this. Under this payment options screen, this includes the information of where to send those 529 payment plans. Some reminders, payment is due by 4.30 on the due date of the bill. Please allow for 14 days to order your 529 payment. If it's delayed, you can call us before the due date to avoid a late payment fee and a hold put on the student's account. Because it is very common for 529 payments to be slightly delayed, we do encourage students and parents to call our office or email our office to let us know that you have certified a 529 payment. It is on its way, and that way we can proactively put a note in the student's account. That way they don't receive that late payment fee or a hold. You can contact our office from 10 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. Monday through Friday either via phone at 802-656-5700 or you can send us an email at sfs at uvm.edu. If you have any further questions, you can also reach out to either of those. Thanks for watching!
