Sanity Check with Tution and Fees

I have been working with my university to get tuition and fees paid for. However, they cited a number for what they are billing suspiciously close to two semesters worth of tuition. Am I correct in assuming that they should send a bill to SMART every semester? If so, I can get this fixed.

The sponsor letter said its valid for the Fall 2019 and Spring 2020 semesters, so I'm not sure the if there is any specific way it should be done, but my university has only charged SMART for the Fall semester as of now and not the Spring semester. This is partially because my university doesn't even generate a bill for the spring semester until November rolls around.

Thanks for verifying what I was thinking. Couldn't find the original number that got me worried. However, it was good I checked with them, as they were trying to apply a preexisting scholarship to tuition (which saved SMART money I suppose), rather than allowing it to be used to reduce out-of-pocket expenses for room and board.
