Housing Fee Payment Options

Housing fees are due on the first calendar day of each month. A $25 late fee is due beginning the fourth day of the month. Please contact our offices for hours of operation to pay in person. You may pay by check, cash (exact amount), money order, or electronic check. Housing fees may be paid at the Auxiliary Services office in the Student Services Building or online via electronic check. The University reserves the right to require students to pay by cash or prepaid money order at any time.

A $25.00 accounting charge will be assessed for the handling of any returned check or declined ACH payment.

If your financial aid is more than is needed for tuition, you may use some of your credit balance on your student account to make housing payments. Contact the Graduate & Family Housing Office for instructions on using your financial aid toward your housing fees. If you plan to use financial aid funds, you must notify the Graduate & Family Housing in advance to avoid late fees for the month. Financial aid is released on your student account approximately 3-4 weeks into each semester. Your financial aid will not be available to pay for your housing charges until after it has been credited to your student account. You may not pay housing charges late while waiting for financial aid’s release. Expect to pay all housing charges that are due prior to financial aid’s release out-of-pocket from your own funds via cash, check, or electronic check by the due date. You can then replenish your funds with the released financial aid.
