1. Balance from last statement

The account balance from your most recent monthly billing statement.

2. Charges

This includes all tuition and fees and also other charges which could include bookstore purchases, ID card charges, payment plan setup fee, parking fees and event tickets.

If the amount due for the billing period (either the total amount due or the payment plan amount due) is not paid on the due date, you will see a late payment fee. This amount is calculated by taking the last total due at the last payment due date, subtracting any credits applied and then computing a 1% late payment fee on the remaining balance. 

3. Payments and credits

This includes any payments on your student account made by you or an Authorized User and any credit applied since your last monthly billing statement. These may be in the form of a refunded deposit or financial aid that has been paid to your account. 

4. Refunds

Any credit balance paid from the student account since the last monthly billing statement is considered a refund. Refunds are issued via direct deposit or by check. Refunds are not pictured at left. (more about refunds: link to refunds page)

5. Anticipated aid

Financial aid awarded to you that has not yet been applied. If you have any questions about anticipated aid, contact Student Financial Services at 573-341-4282.

6. Account balance

The total amount due on your student account for this billing period. Anticipated financial aid will be reflected in the adjusted balance. 

7. Adjusted amount due

Your account balance minus your anticipated aid.
