Payment Due Dates
Billing Schedule Basics
Billing and payment schedules vary by school and/or program, but you can plan ahead by understanding some basics:
- Bills are generated and available online on the tenth of each month, with the balance due in full by the first day of the following month.
- Tuition billing is based on enrollment timing for your academic program, and the first bill for each term will generally align with the term system used by your school, as shown below.
- Late payments may incur financial penalties or registration or diploma holds.
If you are unsure of the enrollment timing for your academic program, please see the Academic Calendar.
