Billing statements and due dates
Each month, you'll get an email letting you know your eBill statement is ready to view in Student Self-Service. OHSU doesn't mail paper statements.
Due dates
Tuition and fees post to your account the month before payment is due. Payments are due on the second Monday of each term:
- Fall term: posts in September, due 2nd Monday in October
- Winter term: posts in December, due 2nd Monday in January
- Spring term: posts in March, due 2nd Monday in April
- Summer term: posts in June, due 2nd Monday in July
Payment plans
OHSU offers students a three-month payment plan with a $25 enrollment fee per term. To enroll, set up your plan before the start of the term. Plans require a monthly payment. Missed payments accrue interest at 1.5% of the balance.
-
How to set up a payment plan
- Log in to Student Self-Service.
- Under Student Accounts Receivable, select Student Account Center. If you haven’t done so previously, you will be prompted to accept the Student Financial Services Agreement and set up your account.
- In the Student Account Center, select Enroll in Payment Plan.
- Select an academic term from the dropdown menu to view your payment plan details (if you don’t see a plan option for the current term, the enrollment period has probably closed). Continue to view the total balance eligible for the plan and the payment schedule. Your payment plan does not include current charges. Pay those charges separately. You can include an optional down payment now to reduce the amount owed per installment — select Update Schedule to recalculate the balance and installment amounts. Choose whether you’d like to set up automatic payments, then continue.
- Before you can enroll in your payment plan, you will need to pay the $25 fee and, if added, your down payment amount. Select a payment method and continue. If you chose automatic payments, the same payment method will be used for your plan installments.
- You’ll see the Payment Plan Agreement. You can print the agreement or change your payment method, if desired. Read through the entire agreement, check the box to agree to the terms, then continue.
- You’ll see your payment receipt. Any time you’d like to review or manage your plan, you can select Payment Plans in the top menu bar. You can view your agreement, pay off your balance, update information for scheduled payments or make an installment payment.
Refunds
If your financial aid exceeds your total charges, OHSU issues a refund by check or direct deposit.
Log in to Student Self-Service to sign up for direct deposit for the fastest refund, or to check that your mailing address is up to date if you prefer to receive a check.
Sponsoring a student's tuition
If your organization is sponsoring an OHSU student's tuition, you must have a formal billing arrangement with OHSU.
To set up as a third-party vendor, email studentar@ohsu.edu with the following information:
- Your organization's name, address, phone number and email address
- Your organization's tax ID number
- A financial guarantee showing the amount you'll pay and the end date of funding
Submit your financial guarantee before the term due date. If it arrives late, the student may be responsible for any interest charged on their account.
Once you set up your account, you’ll receive a statement by email each term after the add/drop period.
If payment isn't made, the student's registration may be held for future terms.
1098-T tax statements
Your 1098-T tax form shows tuition payments and financial aid you received during the year. You may need this information when applying for education tax credits. OHSU makes your 1098-T available in Student Self-Service by January 31 each year.
Visit O2 for detailed information about 1098-T tax statements.
