Guidelines for Payment of Tuition, Fees and Other Charges to The College

A student account statement of semester charges, less any financial aid, is provided to the student prior to matriculation. The balance due is reflected on the student account statement.

• Tuition, fees, room, board, and other applicable charges are all due prior to matriculation.
• A student may enroll in a University-approved payment plan administered by an outside agency. The plan provides a way for the student to begin payments before matriculation, without being charged any interest. The service requires a small administrative fee to be paid to the agency with the initial payment. Students also should bring enough money to registration to purchase books and supplies. Student negligence debts (fines, property damage or loss, assessed fees) may be added to a student’s account and are to be paid within the University’s guidelines.

Registration for a new semester of courses is not allowed until a student’s account for the previous semester is paid. Diplomas, transcripts and other records are not to be released until accounts are fully paid. Ottawa University reserves the right to dismiss a student for non-payment of the student account.
