Billing
Invoices are sent from the Office of the Bursar. The billing approach that is used is much like a credit card billing statement. Charges and payments that have been added to the account since the last billing cycle are displayed in detail only once. The next invoice begins with a previous billed balance, which was the ending balance of the previous invoice. The Miami University billing system is a comprehensive or centralized billing system. All University charges incurred will be displayed on a comprehensive invoice.

Semester Invoices
Semester invoices are generated prior to the beginning of each semester and sent to the Miami email address of all students who have registered for classes as of the time of billing. eBills are generated even if the balance due is zero or if there is a credit balance. Students confirm their intent to return to school by returning their invoice stub with payment. These invoices include semester-specific charges such as Instructional and General Fees, as well as Miami Metro, Room, Board, and other charges to the account. Students who have registered for fewer than full-time hours and add more classes when they return to school tend to experience more problems because the semester invoice is for less than full-time fees. Adding hours causes additional fees to be due. Students may NOT be sent an additional semester invoice; however students are able to view current account information via BannerWeb. In addition, students must pay all additional charges before the end of the first week of the term. Failure to do so can cause cancelation of all classes.

Monthly Invoices
Monthly invoices are sent to the Miami email address of each student only when there is a balance due. These include items such as telephone charges, library fines, parking fines, pharmacy charges, and any other charges that have been incurred. Students may have invoices sent to an additional email address by designating an authorized viewer (click here for instructions).

Late Fees
Semester and Monthly Invoices have due dates. The due date should be observed. Late fees may be applied to an account if the due date is missed.
