Overview:

The Bursar’s Area is responsible for billing and receipting student payments for tuition and fees, room and board, and other related semester charges. This office also disburses payroll checks and financial aid checks.  Tuition and fee payments can be made with cash (payments made in person only), personal check, cashier's check, money order, or credit card. We accept VISA, Master Card, Discover, American Express, Diners Club and E-Checks.

The Collections Area is responsible for assisting all students with financial holds on their student records.  Collections also administers the Emergency Tuition Loan and Short Term Loan programs.

A $30 service fee is assessed for any payment transaction returned by the bank unpaid.  A cash only hold is placed on the student account until this fee is paid.
