Fall 2024 Tuition and Fee Due Dates
Registration cancellation for non‐payment is a process by which the university reviews all outstanding accounts to ensure minimum financial requirements have been met.
Students will not be dropped from their registered classes if they meet one of the criteria options:
- Financial Aid has received your 2024-2025 FAFSA.
- You have made a payment to tuition and fees of 15% or $300, whichever is less.
- You have a scholarship or third party award of at least $300 that is on record with the Business Office.
- You have set up a Nelnet Payment Plan through e-Services.
Fall 2024 Payment Deadline
All student bills must be paid in full September 30, 2024.
Do not assume that your classes will be dropped. It is the student’s responsibility to drop classes if you do not plan to attend.
Students are responsible for watching your account on e-Services and making certain everything is paid in full.
See MinnState policy for further details. Registration holds, late fees and drop for nonpayment can occur if payments are not made within the structure of this plan.
