Billing and Payments
Spring 2009
Upon receipt of your completed form(s), your registration will be processed and your tuition and fees will be calculated and posted to your account. Billings will be generated according to the schedule below.
The University has an electronic billing and payment system. All currently
enrolled students with a University e-mail account will be billed electronically
and electronic payments are also accepted. Paper billing statements will
be mailed to those students who do not have University e-mail accounts and
to senior citizens. You will receive notifications at your University e-mail
account when your bill is ready to pick up, and you will be directed to
a secure Web site to view and/or print your billing statement. This billing
statement is a snapshot of your student account as of the statement date.
Transactions after the billing date will not be reflected until the following
statement. To view the most up-to-the-minute transactions, you can go to www.d.umn.edu/students/ and
click on "View Student Account."
Full details are available at the UM Pay site, www.d.umn.edu/umdbo/umpay.html
The billing schedule for spring is:
| Statement | Billing Mailed | Payment Due | Minimum Due |
|---|---|---|---|
| installment 1 | January 20 | February 12 | 33% of balance |
| installment 2 | February 16 | March 12 | 50% of balance |
| installment 3 | March 16 | April 9 | 100% of balance |
Note: Information on billing charges, the installment plan, billing dates, and payment details are subject to change. Updated information will be available online at www.d.umn.edu/umdbo/sar.html.
Non-Degree
Seeking Students
If you are a non-degree seeking student, you must pay our tuition in full
by the first billing date, which is Feb. 12, 2009. If you do not pay, your
registration will be cancelled.
Please contact our Registration staff at 218/726-8113 or at the walk-up
windows in the Darland Administration Building if you have any questions.
Non-degree seeking students can participate in the payment plan. This plan
includes a one-time $35 installment fee. Students must initiate their participation
in this plan each semester. Your record must be in good standing before
you will be accepted on the plan.
Please contact our Registration staff at 218/726-8113 or at CE Registration
walk-up windows if you have any questions or would like to participate.
If your payment is less than the minimum due or arrives after the due date,
you will be charged a $20 late payment fee.
Change of Address
While registering, or at any time, it is your responsibility to keep the
University informed of any change in your current or permanent address.
Contact CE Registration staff at 218/726-8113 to update your address.
Payment Options
The billing system allows you the option of paying the full balance on your billing statement or making installment payments. Installment billings will be sent three times each semester. There will be a $35 billing charge assessed to your account for each installment billing. If your payment arrives after the due date, you will be assessed a $20 late payment fee and a $35 installment fee. Payment cannot be charged to a credit card.
The minimum due is a percentage of your balance. If you plan to pay installments, wait for your billing statement to determine the minimum amount you need to pay. Your payment must be received by the due date to avoid a late payment charge. Allow sufficient time for mail to reach the Cashier's Office. If your payment is less than the minimum due or arrives after the due date, you will be charged a $20 late payment fee and a $35 installment fee.
Holds
If you do not pay the minimum due on the billing statement by the due date,
a hold will be placed on your academic record. This hold must be cleared
before you will be allowed to receive a transcript or before you can register
again. Contact Student Accounts Receivable, window 15 or 16 in the Darland
Administration Building, for information about releasing your hold. Payment
of past due accounts with UM Pay will require a six-day waiting period for
the hold to be released, and payment by personal check will require a 15-day
waiting period.
