PAYMENT OF FEES: By accepting admission to the University, the student has agreed to pay the fees and charges assessed by the University.  Invoices must be paid in full by the due date printed on the billing statement.  No student shall enroll in classes, graduate from the University or receive transcripts of coursework taken while at the University until all fees have been paid.  Unpaid bills will be referred to the Office of the Attorney general in Harrisburg, PA, or collection agencies may be utilized.  The student is responsible for any collection costs in addition to the original amount owed.

PAYMENT: Payments can be made by check, money order or credit card (VISA, MasterCard Discover and American Express).  Cash will be accepted in the Office of Student Accounts.  Make checks payable to Slippery Rock University or SRU.  For credit card payments, complete the bottom portion of the billing statement or use "Rock Talk" (738-3000) for a direct telephone connection.  Keep the top portion of the statement for your records.  Please refer to the installment payment information if you are not paying the full amount.

ROCK TALK" CREDIT CARD PAYMENT PLAN: "Rock Talk" is an interactive telephone system accessible through either a Touch-Tone phone or a phone with a pulse-tone switch.  If using a pulse-phone, switch to "tone" before using the system. To access the system, dial 1-724-738-3000; push "1" to verify that you are calling from a Touch-tone phone.  To make a credit card payment, select option "2" and enter the student's social security number and birth month and date as a four-digit number (Jan 5 would be 0105). "Rock Talk" does not accept the American Express Card. This service is available from 8:15 am to 8:00 pm; Monday through Friday.  If, when dialing into the system, the phone continues to ring; this is an indication that the system is "down" and being repaired.  Please disconnect and call back later.

INSTALLMENT PLAN: The Installment Plan gives the opportunity for the semester bill to be paid in three or four monthly installments.  A minimal non-refundable charge of $25 per semester covers administrative expenses.  To enroll, simply pay the "Plan B" amount on the lower portion of the billing statement. 
Students not paying the full amount due on their billing statement will be assumed to have chosen the payment plan. If you are paying less than the full amount because you have an approved deduction that is not shown on the billing statement, please include documentation of the deduction.
Although there are not interest charges on past due amounts, there will be a $15 late payment charge for each missed due date.  You will receive monthly billing statements on all past due accounts.

If your financial aid is not approved, you must make payment of the minimum installment payment amount to avoid a late payment fee and to protect your schedule.

SCHOLARSHIPS, GRANTS, LOANS: The financial aid listed on your billing statement is tentative and is subject to change based upon eligibility requirements and enrollment status.  If you are receiving a private grant, it will not be reflected as a credit on your account until the funds are actually received by the Office of Student Accounts.  If you are borrowing a Federal Staffed Loan or a Federal Perkins Loan, you have the right to cancel the loans if you choose.  To cancel the Stafford Loan, notify the Office of Student Accounts.  To cancel the Perkins Loan, contact the Office of Financial Aid.
