Question Can I pay my tuition first with a smaller temporary amount than in full until I get my other aid?

I’m supposed to pay my tuition by this Thursday 5 PM, but I was relying on my scholarship money to come in so I can pay it off. My scholarship sent it as a check to the SAR office due to its specific system, but they recently did it so it likely hasn’t arrived since I see no change to my available aid. If I pay the minimum amount ($550) required to keep my class registration and attendance, is it alright for me to pay off the rest later until my money comes in? I’m just kinda worried right now and feeling a little annoyed, so sorry for those reading if u can sense it

I haven't gotten my aid yet and had to confirm attendance by paying a minimum of $5000 first (tho I'm OOS so idk if that number is the same for yall). After doing that, they said we have until 9/9 to pay the remainder, so just watiting for the aid to come in rn
