Payment Due Dates by Semester
- Fall = August 1
- Spring = January 1
- Summer = 1st of the month your first class begins
Important Note: Before classes begin, you must pay the full balance on your account (net of aid) or be enrolled in a payment plan. Otherwise, your schedule will be subject to cancellation. Due to the compressed schedule, payment plans are not offered for summer terms.
