Financial Responsibility

assisting students in art classBy enrolling in classes at Plymouth State University, students agree to pay all expenses they incur as a result of their relationship with PSU, regardless if they are billed through their PSU tuition bill account or via some other means.    These costs may include, but are not limited to, tuition, fees, room, board, late fees, library fines, parking fines, telecom fees, and collection-related costs.  Accordingly, students must accept full responsibility for adhering to all of PSU’s billing policies, including payment due dates.

Important Note About Tuition Bill Accounts

Each student enrolled at Plymouth State University is assigned a tuition bill account in his/her name.   The student is responsible for all charges and payments that occur on it.  As a result, online access to the tuition bill account is restricted to the student only.  Payments made by others on behalf of the student (including those from a parent) are considered gifts and/or scholarships to the student and will be refunded to the student should an overpayment arise.

A Partnership With Parents

Since many students rely on the help of their parent/guardian to pay their bill, it is important for students and their parent(s) to form an active partnership.  Given that the tuition bill is the student’s responsibility, parents/guardians frequently do not have as much information available to them. We urge students to assume an active role in managing their financial affairs at Plymouth State University and discuss all billing matters with those who are assisting them.   In the end, our students are responsible for ensuring their bill is paid on time
