Current and recently active students may request an official transcript through their Student Center in MaineStreet. Please visit the Student Records website for complete information.
The deadline for applying for December 2009 graduation is November 16th. Please check the Office of Student Records web site here for further information.
Registration holds are being placed on students’ accounts as of Wednesday, October 14th. All holds must be resolved before a student can register for spring 2010 courses. To view holds, login to MaineStreet and go to the Student Center. On the right side of your screen the Holds box will indicate whether a hold has been placed on your account. You could receive a registration hold for immunization requests, a final high school transcript request, or a past due bill. The “details” link in the Holds box will provide contact information should you have questions regarding what is required for the hold to be removed.
The degree progress report (a.k.a. degree audit) is intended for advising purposes only and is NOT the final or official determination for completing degree or program requirements. Only a College and/or Department can make that final official determination. Please use the degree progress report as a basis of discussion during advising.

If you have a balance due to the University, you must make payment arrangements now. Please review your account on MaineStreet Self-Service. If you have a balance due that is not covered by anticipated aid, please remit payment by one of the following options:
To enter any credit not shown on your student bill, you must enter your Anticipated Resources by logging into MaineStreet and navigating to Student Self-Service > Student Center > Self Service > Campus Finances > Anticipated Resources.
Should you have any questions concerning your account balance, please contact the Bursar’s Office at 207-581-1521.
If you are borrowing through a lender for the first time, you must sign an MPN (either electronically or on paper) with your lender in order for funds to be released to the University. If you are using the same lender as before (for returning students), your MPN is valid for 2009-2010. However, all Citibank borrowers are required to sign a new MPN this year. More information on the MPN can be found by visiting www.umaine.edu/stuaid and clicking on MPN Completion (Stafford Loan).
Several students have not completed the required Stafford Loan Entrance Counseling. If you have not yet received your Stafford Loans, please check your To Do List on MaineStreet to determine if this is listed as a requested item. To complete this requirement, go to www.umaine.edu/stuaid and click on Loan Counseling (Stafford).
Several students have not selected a Stafford Loan lender and therefore these loans cannot be processed. If you did not choose a lender while accepting your award, please go to the Student Center and click on the Accept/Decline Awards link. Select the 2010 aid year to go to the Award Summary Screen. At the bottom of the screen, click on the Stafford Loan Application link. Click on the magnifying glass to view a list of Stafford Loan lenders and select a lender from the list.
As of July 1, 2009 most veterans education benefits are being excluded from estimated financial assistance (Higher Education Act Technical Corrections Bill – H.R. 1777). Benefits that still must be included as financial assistance are the National Guard Tuition Assistance and the Veteran Dependent Waiver, as they are programs funded by the state. Students should not be concerned that the excluded benefits no longer appear on their financial aid award. If you have questions regarding eligibility for veterans education benefits, please contact the UMaine Office of Veterans Affairs at 207-581-1316 or visit their website at www.umaine.edu/studentaffairs/vets.
The Office of Student Financial Aid is currently adjusting financial aid awards for students who were awarded as full-time, but are enrolled less than full-time. If your award is adjusted, you will be sent an email notification which will direct you to MaineStreet to view your revised award.
