Student Accounting FAQs

Tuition and fees typically post on your student account 2-3 weeks before the start of the academic session. A notification email is sent to each active student at the time the tuition is posted.

Tuition & fees are due by the first day of each semester.

Please check the academic calendar for start dates of different sessions during the year.

A $100 late payment fee will be accessed to all student accounts with past due balances. Students who still have unpaid balances on the 12th day of the semester will be dropped from their classes.

The approved tuition and fees schedules are posted on the Student Accounting Homepage.

Please see Online Payment Instructions.

Medical Students:
Medical student tuition is billed annually and split into 2 installment payments at a fee of $25. The first installment due at the start of the academic year and the second installment due at mid-year. To remain on this plan, a Promissory Note found in your student self-service must be signed. If you wish to opt out or do not sign your Promissory Note agreement, you will be removed from the plan and will not be eligible to re-enroll. If you are removed from the plan, your annual balance will be due.

All Students:
You have the option to sign up for a payment plan offered through Transact in your payment portal. Medical students can only sign up for the Transact payment plan if they opt out of the school’s installment plan.

Medical Students:
Since medical school term runs all year, your financial aid, per regulation, is disbursed in two parts; half at the beginning and half at mid-year.

Graduate and Health Professions Students:
Your aid is usually disbursed evenly per term.

If you completed all of your to-do list items and accepted your loans, see Financial Aid’s disbursement calendar for scheduled disbursements.

After financial aid has disbursed and paid your balance due, any remaining funds will produce a student refund.

If you setup direct deposit, allow 5-7 business days to receive the funds directly in your bank account. Make sure to keep this bank account information up-to-date.

If you do not have direct deposit, the refund will be processed in the form of a check and will be mailed to the address on file.

See instructions for direct deposit setup. For the security of your information, this setup can only be done on the school’s network. If you are off-campus, you will need to setup VPN. 

Step 1)

To do so, you must set up two-factor authentication for the first time which can be done on campus or off campus.

Watch this Video Tutorial on Registering Your Phone or Tablet with Two-Factor Authentication (duration 2:21).

Step 2) 

Your Transact payment portal has options to pay using your 529 plan. Not all plans are applicable.
