Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find out when fees are due?
When you register for classes, the payment due date will appear on your "Course Schedule and Fee Statement".  Due dates are also listed under "Important Dates" in the semester schedule. 

How can I pay for my classes?
You may pay by cash, check, or credit card.  Mastercard, Visa, and Discover may be used.  If paying by credit card, payment will only be accepted from the person whose authorized signature appears on the back of the card.  Credit card authorizations may be faxed to (219) 785-5543. 

What do I do if I'm receiving any financial aid or student loans?
If you are receiving financial aid and have enough to cover all of your fees, you must fill out the "Financial Aid Deferment Form ".  This may be mailed to the Bursar's Office.  Otherwise, you must appear in person at the Bursar's Office to apply your financial aid to class fees.  The remaining balance must be paid at this time. 

What happens if I forget to pay by the deadline?
To hold your classes you MUST do one of the following BY THE DUE DATE:

  • Pay your fees in full
  • Complete FACTS Payment Plan Agreement on the Web
  • Defer fees and pay balance if there is one.

If you do not do one of the above by the due date on your bill, and there are students on the wait list for a class in which you are registered, your registration for that class will be cancelled. If that happens, you will be unable to re-register for that class, because there will not be any openings.

How are refunds handled if I drop a class?
Refunds are mailed to the student at their current address.  They take between three to four weeks. 

What is an "encumbrance" and how do I pay for it?
An encumbrance is a hold that is placed on your account for any past due amounts.  A $5.00 encumbrance fee is charged.  An encumbrance will prevent you from receiving or having access to your academic records (transcripts), diploma, and may cancel or prevent your future registration. 

You may make a payment by cash, check, or charge at the Bursar's Office.  After hour payments may be put in the night drop.  Please do not deposit cash in the night drop. 

How do I change my address?
Address changes can be made in Registration, Room 40 Schwarz Hall. 

When will I receive my statement?
If you advance register in the Fall, statements will be mailed in early July.  In Spring and Summer semesters, statements may be obtained by picking them up in the Bursar's Office after registering. Statements that are not picked up will be mailed approximately three weeks before fees are due.
