BANNER WEB PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Students may pay fees online using any computer with Internet access. Students are allowed to make web check payments via checking and savings account or credit card payments online. Students can only use VISA and/or MASTERCARD to make credit card payments.
First-Time Freshmen will be allowed to pay fees online only after their schedules are entered by the academic advisors in the College for Excellence.
Payments can be made to cover tuition and room, board, and laundry charges. Students will be allowed to make payments for transcripts, fines, parking tickets, library fines, and dormitory charges at a later date to be announced.
NOTE: Students may make tuition and room, board, and laundry payments for the current term only. Students will not be allowed to make payments for any term, if a hold is applied to his/her account. All holds must be cleared before any tuition payments are accepted.
NOTE: All students, whether on-campus or off-campus, must go by the housing office or contact them at (601) 877-6478 before registering. You will not be able to fully register if this step is omitted.
Before submitting your payment over the web, you must,
(a) Select classes for the current term.
(b) Check your account information for any and all balances due. Prior balances must be cleared before payment is accepted for the current term. Your payment will not be processed if you have an outstanding balance.
(c) Check your housing status. Every student must contact housing to receive a housing code whether on- or off- campus.
(d) Verify the amount, if any, you will receive in financial aid to determine the amount of payment you must make to cover the difference between tuition and room, board, and laundry charges for the current term. Failure to do so will result in you not being able to register for the term and being purged from the system. If you receive federal loans as part of your financial aid package, please be sure to reduce your loan by 1.5% for a subsidized loan and 2.5% for an unsubsidized loan.
If you have questions concerning a prior bill, you must contact a cashier. If your financial aid has not been posted for a prior term or if you are on financial aid suspension, you must contact your financial aid counselor.
If you are making a payment via the web, you are responsible for the complete payment of your bill; otherwise you have not completed registration.
STEPS TO THE ONLINE PAYMENT SYSTEM
1. Click on the “Enter Secure Area” link. Enter your user ID and Personal Identification Number (PIN), not your alternate pin, when prompted.
2. Click on the “Student Services & Financial Aid” link.
3. Depending on your method of payment click on either the Credit Card Payment link or the Pay by Check link which can be accessed three ways:
(a) Click on Student Records and select Account Summary or Account Summary by Term or
(b) Click on Registration and select Registration Fee Assessment or
(c) Click on Financial Aid, My Award Information and select Account Summary by Term
NOTE: If you access the online payment system using the Account Summary page, you must select the correct term in the drop down box. If you access the online payment system using the Registration Fee Assessment page a term will already be selected, and it is assumed that the credit card payment being made is for that term. Please be sure that you select the current term in either case.
4. Follow the instructions provided for both the credit card and the pay by check processing. Be sure to print a copy of your receipt confirmation for your records.
