FAQs (Student Accounts)

Each student will have an account, which includes charges/payments for tuition, fees, room and board, parking permits and fines, as well as any other charges from the university.

Tuition is due three weeks prior to the start of class. After that, a $55.00 late fee may be charged. Non-receipt of a bill does not relieve the student from paying by the due date.

You can get your bill in Self-Service or stop by our office. We mail the first statement of the semester to the home address on file. Payments are still due by our scheduled due dates, even if you did not receive a bill.

It is the responsibility of all students to monitor their student accounts regularly. Changes may occur to their bills or financial aid that would require their attention even after financial aid awards disbursed to their accounts. You can view your account at any time by going to Self-Service.
