Refer to the Deposit Policy. TUITION AND ACADEMIC FEESDifferential Tuition Information Tuition and fees are due by the10th day of the term to avoid all finance charges. A 1% finance charge will be assessed every 30 days on unpaid balances including anticipated aid that has not been credited to your account. You will not be able to register for the next term until all fees are paid in full and a minimum $100 registration down payment for the next term is posted to your account. Tuition and fee amounts are posted to your eSIS account approximately two weeks prior to the first day of the term. A billing statement will be sent to the billing address that you designated in eSIS. Adding or dropping classes may impact the amount due, check your eSIS account for any changes prior to payment. The " Balance for All Accounts " (excluding deposits for future terms) on the Summary for all Terms page is the amount currently due. The University offers a partial payment plan which provides for two installment payments after the initial due date. Refer to the Partial Payment Plan for more information. Graduate Students: Payment for the semester is due in full by the first due date of the semester. The partial payment plan is not available to Graduate Students. Contact Accounts Receivable at 715-425-3200 if your account will not be paid in full by the first due date. A FINANCE CHARGE , assessed at an annual percentage rate of 12%, calculated on the unpaid balance will be added to each bill. The unpaid balance is computed by taking the previous balance and subtracting payments and credits received. To avoid all finance charges, the account must be paid in full by the 10th day of the term including anticipated aid amounts that have not been credited to your account. Students on the partial payment plan will be billed for the full amount of the outstanding bill each month. The student may pay the remaining balance or more than the 50% minimum required payment to avoid or reduce future finance charges. A monthly billing statement showing the previous balance and subsequent activity will be sent to your billing or email address every 30 days. You can verify and/or change your address using eSIS. Students not making their own payments must forward bills to their parents or payment sources. It is the students' responsibility to furnish the University with current addresses.

Contact Accounts Receivable at (715)425-3145 if you have questions regarding your balance. RETURN OF TITLE IV FUNDS FOR WITHDRAWING STUDENTSThe federal "Return of Title IV Funds" formula dictates the amount of Federal Title IV aid that must be returned to the federal government by the school and the student. The federal formula is applicable to any student receiving a PELL Grant, SEOG Grant, TIP Grant, Federal Stafford Loan, Plus Loan and any other federal aid other then Federal Work Study if that student withdraws on or before the 60% point in time in the semester. If you received Title IV (federal financial assistance) and you are withdrawing before 60% of the term is completed, it may create a balance due on your academic fee account even though it was previously paid in full. The percentage of Title IV aid to be returned is equal to the number of calendar days remaining in the semester divided by the total days in the semester. Scheduled breaks of more than four consecutive days are excluded from total days. Contact the Accounts Receivable Office if you have questions regarding your balance.
