Billing & Payment Options

Information to help graduate students prepare to receive their bill, learn about applying for federal student aid and how it is applied to their bill, and how to utilize the 10-month payment plan that runs from July to April can be found on the Financial Services Website. The Financial Services division of Student Services will be your main point of contact for anything related to graduate student billing and loans.  

Where do I go with questions about…

Federal Financial Aid & Billing | Your first contact should be the specialists in Student Services who are trained to answer any questions you may have about financial aid and billing issues. If they cannot answer your question, you will be referred to your aid counselor. All graduate students are assigned to Christi Lipman and Kyle Ashworth.
