The account balance from your most recent monthly billing statement.
2. Charges
This includes all tuition and fees and also other charges which could include bookstore purchases, ID card charges, parking fees and event tickets. You will also see any finance charges, which are applied to the unpaid total due from your last billing statement. This amount is calculated monthly by taking the last total due, subtracting any credits applied and then computing a 1% charge on the remaining balance. There can also be late payment fees which is an additional $10 if the minimum payment is not received by the monthly due date.
3. Payments and credits
This includes any payments on your student account made by you or an Authorized Payer and any credit applied since your last monthly billing statement. These may be in the form of a refunded deposit or financial aid that has paid to your account.
