Paying Your Bill

Paying Your Bill

The payment process is relatively easy. We offer many services to help you manage your student account.

After you register, a bill will be processed. The bill will include both tuition and fees for the semester, list any financial aid credited to your account, and give your payment due date.

To print or view your bill online:
  • Login to OneStart
  • Click to the "Self Service Link" on the left side of page
  • Go to "Services and Information"
  • Under "Financials," Click "View/Pay Bursar Bill"
  • Click "Make Payment" in the message board
  • Click "Pay" by the Northwest campus selection

You can elect to enroll in a payment plan (personal deferment) with two, three, or four payments spread over the course of the semester.

Whether or not you enroll in a payment plan, you can pay your bill by credit card, check, or money order.  We accept payments online, in person, or by mail. Our doors open at 8 a.m. We close at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, and 6 p.m. on Monday and Thursday to help make paying your bill easier.

If you withdraw from a course by the stated deadline and you qualify for a refund, we can issue your refund by check or using direct deposit.

You will be financially responsible for the classes in which you registered unless you withdraw during the 100% refund period.

To check your bursar account status, print your account statement, or review your financial aid awards, please login to OneStart.

High school students and non-enrolled students should make payments through IUPay Plus.

Money Matters

Non-Payment/Collections

Your registration will not automatically be cancelled for non-payment of fees. You must either pay your fees or notify us if you do not intend to return to the IU Northwest campus.

The Office of the Bursar is responsible for the collection of any outstanding University financial obligations. An encumbered account will be denied certain University services until it is paid in full.

Tax Credits

All students enrolled in courses for college credit must complete form W-9S each calendar year they are enrolled. The form may be completed electronically through OneStart, IU's secure student website, by December 30th of each year.

Returned Checks

The return by the bank of any check you have issued will result in a fee. The agreement with our bank is that checks will be sent through twice before they are returned to us. The Office of the Bursar will contact you should this happen. These accounts will also be flagged with “No Checks Accepted.”

Note: The issuance of a stop payment order through your bank does not constitute as an official withdrawal from University classes.

Multi-Campus Enrollment

You may not know that you can enroll at more than one Indiana University campus. To do so, you must verify that satisfactory financial arrangements have been made by the due date of each campus. Fee payment information varies from campus to campus.

Parking Services

The regulations enforced by Parking Services serve to expedite the efficient flow of traffic on the IU Northwest campus and provide parking facilities for faculty, staff, students, and visitors. Money derived from the fee parking system is used to operate, maintain, improve, and expand parking facilities at the IU Northwest location.
