Deadline<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pay at least half<\/strong> of your current term\u2019s charges by 5:00 PM Monday of Week 4<\/strong>. Pay all past-due balances by that time. Pay the rest by the last day of the term.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Late Fee<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A $50 Late Payment Penalty<\/strong> applies if you miss the Week-4 deadline. A one-time waiver is available, except when the delay is due to financial aid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Interest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1% per month<\/strong> (12% APR) on charges more than 30 days old.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Holds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Balance Due Hold<\/strong> may block registration, transcripts, diplomas, and other services until you are current.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Registration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You must be current to register. If you owe more than $1,000<\/strong> from your prior term, you may be denied registration or dropped.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Non-admitted, OHSU, and graduating students must be paid in full by the last day of the term.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Your student account responsibilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You agree to pay all tuition, fees, and other charges on your student account. Financial aid and scholarships will be applied to your balance before any refund is issued. Payments are applied to the oldest charges first. You may pay in full at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not receiving a bill or not opening an emailed notice does not excuse late or missed payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Payment deadlines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To avoid the $50 Late Payment Penalty and a Balance Due Hold, you must pay at least half of your current term\u2019s charges by 5:00 PM on Monday of Week 4<\/strong>. You must also pay all past-due balances by that time. The remaining balance is due by the last day of the term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See the EOU Academic Calendar for official dates. If there is a conflict, the official Agreement controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a Balance Due Hold?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Balance Due Hold<\/strong> (also called Owes Money Hold<\/strong>) is a registration and services hold placed when required payments are not made on time. It can restrict registration, transcripts, diplomas, and other services until your account is current.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
