Tuition Bill • 410-704-2100 |
The university will prepare a bill for the spring term during the first week in January 2009. The bill will be mailed to your permanent address. It is imperative that you adhere to the bill payment deadlines. The 2009 spring term tuition bill is due on February 10, 2009. After the first term, your payment due date will be approximately one month prior to the start of each term (August 1 for the fall term and January 1 for the spring term).
Tuition and Billing Information
Information pertaining to tuition, fees and billing can be found on the Bursar’s Web site.
Payment Options
Note: Debit and bank check card payments cannot be processed through the Web payment site due to bank imposed daily limits.
If necessary, please submit payment or verification of third-party funds (such as scholarships) to cover all charges by the deadline to Towson University, Bursar's Offices, Enrollment Services Center, Room 336, Towson, MD 21252.
Late Fee
Bill payment must be received by the due date to avoid a late fee. A late fee of $75 will be assessed to the student's financial account term if charges are paid after the scheduled bill payment due date, which appears on the bill.
Rebate Checks
If your financial aid award exceeds all charges for the term, you will be issued a rebate check. You will be notified through your TU e-mail address if you have been issued a rebate check. You will be required to visit the Bursar's Office in person with a photo ID to pick up your check. Rebate checks cannot be disbursed prior to 10 days of the start of the term. Rebate checks will only be disbursed from the Bursar’s Office Payment and Rebate Check Disbursement Center, Monday–Friday, 8:30 a.m.–4 p.m. on the third floor of the Enrollment Services Center.
Refund Checks
If there is a credit balance as a result of cash, check, credit card payment or an adjustment of term charges, the Bursar’s Office will process a refund. Cash and check refunds are submitted to the Maryland State Comptroller’s Office. The refund check will be mailed to the student’s permanent address. Credit card refunds will be credited back to the credit card account that was used to satisfy the term charges, and will take place after the class drop/add period for that term.
Securing and/or Canceling Your Schedule
If your account balance reflects a credit or zero balance, your class schedule will be secured for the spring 2009 term. If you choose NOT to attend, you MUST notify the Office of the Registrar by your bill payment due date to have your class schedule canceled. If you fail to do this, you will be financially responsible for all term charges.
Important: Your Financial Responsibility
You are responsible for paying your bill. Bills are sent to your permanent address, so it is your responsibility to notify our office if you change your address. A change of address can be completed online or by calling the Office of the Registrar at 410-704-2701. If you do not receive a billing statement at least one week prior to your bill due date, call the Bursar's Office at 410-704-2100 or 1-888-5-BURSAR. Even if you do not receive a bill, you are still responsible for paying your tuition and fees by the due date.
