Paying your bill
When you register for classes, you are responsible for the tuition and fees. You can view your bill in eServices, under Bills and Payment.
There are various ways to pay your bill, see payment arrangements.
If you do not make payment arrangements by the deadline, you may be dropped from your classes.

Making payment arrangements will make sure that your courses are not dropped, but you are still responsible for making sure that your courses are paid in full by the final deadline.
If you change your mind and don’t plan to take classes, you must drop them in eServices. If you do not drop your classes, you are expected to pay for them.
Dropping your classes prior to the start of the term allows another student to add the class(es) to their schedule. See the schedule below for the last day to drop your classes without being charged tuition and fees.
