Late Payment Fee

If you do not make your required payment (either paid in full or the minimum amount included in a payment plan), the university will assess a 1% late payment fee on the unpaid portion of the total due.  This is assessed each month payment is late.

The late payment fee is based upon the unpaid total due from the previous monthly billing statement and will not be assessed against current charges appearing in the billing cycle. To avoid the late payment fee, simply pay the total amount due or the adjusted amount due included in your payment plan by the scheduled due date.

Late Registration Fee

Any student registering on or after the first day of classes will be assessed a late registration fee equal to the cost of one credit hour of tuition at the undergraduate rate.

Payment Requirements

All fees must be paid in full, or payment arrangements made, at the opening of each semester/term as a condition of admission to classes. Review the academic calendar for dates of registration and fee deadlines.

Failure to Make Minimum Payments and Holds

Failure to make minimum payments could result in a decision to ban the student from participation in the payment plan during future terms.

Students who are pre registered for a semester and fail to make their first scheduled payment will have their course schedule canceled.

If a "Hold" exists on a student's records the following actions may be taken:

  • You may be removed from official class lists (Cancellation of Registration).
  • You will not be permitted to register for classes.
  • You will be denied access to all University facilities and services.

Delinquent Accounts

Past due amounts owed to the university must be satisfied by payment in full. After an account has been past due 180 days, it is considered delinquent. 

  • The university will pursue appropriate collections practices which may include referrals to a collection agency for accounts that remain past due. 
  • The account may be assessed an additional collection charge of up to 30% of the balance if referral to a collection agency becomes necessary.
