                     OFFSETTING THE SIR FEE
                                
  I.   PURPOSE AND SCOPE:
  
       The Statement of Intent to Register fee may be offset in special
       circumstances for apparently full-need EOP students. See Policy
       4410. This procedure establishes the appropriate steps to accomplish
       this fee offset. The payment of the fee is required to complete
       registration; the fee will be part of a financial aid package
       usually administered through the UCSB Student Financial Services.
