Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

When are bills due for the semester?
Semester bills are due in full on the first Wednesday of classes. This does not include those who are participating in a payment plan.

Can I pay my bill with a credit or debit card?
No, the Student Accounts Office only accepts checks or cash.

Where do my bills get sent?
Semester invoices are sent to the student’s permanent mailing address. Monthly account statements default to the student’s CPO box, unless an alternative address has been requested by the student. Forms are available in the Student Accounts Office for address changes.

How do I make changes to schedule, housing, meals, or insurance?
All changes must be made through the respective office. Failure to contact the appropriate department directly may prevent any desired changes from occurring.

Can I see my student account balance online?
You can access your account through BannerWeb. You will be able to see the current balance and account activity.

What happens if I don't pay my account on time?
A one-time $75 penalty will be charged if the account balance is not received by the first Wednesday of the current semester. Late fees of 1.5% will then be assessed on any past-due balances. In addition, students with unpaid accounts are not permitted to re-enroll or receive diplomas or transcripts.

Participants on a payment plan are exempt from late charges on current budgeted amounts. Unbudgeted items may be subject to late charges.
