Payment Options

UNC-Chapel Hill bills by the semester even though some degree programs use varying calendars. Fall bills will be generated in mid-July and due mid-August. Spring bills will be generated in mid-November and due mid-December. We do generate bills each month for any charges that were posted after the previous bill was generated, but the primary bills are due at the beginning of the semester. We send billing notification emails to the University email account for students and the email registered for Authorized Users to notify them that an online bill is available.

Please be aware that our office is required to comply with federal laws protecting private student information. We can only provide protected student account financial information to students and their proxies and authorized users.

Payments are not accepted by phone. Information about payment options is available on other pages in this section. These options include ALL third parties authorized to collect current student account payments.
All payments must be in U.S. dollars and drawn on a U.S. bank.

Any payments refused by the payer bank because inaccurate bank account information was provided, insufficient funds or a closed account, are subject to a $25.00 returned payment fee. In addition, a hold restricting registration and the receipt of diplomas and transcripts will be placed on the account. This hold will not be released until the amount is repaid. The University reserves the right to observe a 10 day waiting period to ensure that any replacement payment clears. For immediate release of the hold, payment must be cash, money order or certified check.

We are not accepting in-person payments at this time. You may place your check payment in the drop box located at the back of the SASB North building located at 450 Ridge Road. Please be sure your PID is on the check/money order.

NOTE: Other payment options, other than in-person, are strongly preferred!
