Payment Methods

The university does not issue paper bills. With the electronic billing system, students will need to check their IUP email often, and it is highly recommended that students authorize parents/guardians to view and pay bills through the IUP EasyPay system accessed through the university's website.

Once you receive any email stating your bill is available, you may log in to IUP EasyPay to review your statement and pay your bill.

Methods for paying student bills are as follows:

1. IUP EasyPay: In an effort to deliver services to its students more efficiently, IUP has implemented online payment services, IUP-EasyPay, accessible for authorized users from the Student Billing page and through MyIUP for students. These online payment services, via the IUP EasyPay system, offer students and authorized users (parent and/or guardian) the flexibility and convenience to view and pay their bills 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Payments can be made by electronic check payments (e-checks) or credit cards.

   • E-checks may be made online through IUP EasyPay for no additional fee by simply entering your account and routing numbers.

   • Credit card payments are accepted with the following cards: Visa, Discover, or MasterCard. There is a 2.85 percent convenience fee assessed to all credit card payments.

   • Please verify the amount you are paying, as we cannot refund a payment made in error.

   • View instructions on how to use IUP EasyPay or frequently asked questions about the EasyPay process.

2. In the Student Billing Office: Regular check payments or money orders and cash are also accepted in person.

3. Depository: Rather than waiting in line, you may drop off your payment in the depository located outside the front entrance to Clark Hall. Be sure to include your Banner ID number on your payment.

4. Mail: Checks are also accepted through the mail. Please include your Banner ID number on your payment. All payments can be mailed to: Office of Student Billing, Clark Hall, 1090 South Drive, Indiana, PA 15705.

Payment Options

Full Payment

To pay in full, you can pay the entire amount as indicated under "amount due" on the billing statement.

Due dates for paying in full are as follows:  Fall Term- August 20; Winter Term - December 20; Spring Term - January 20; and Summer Term - May 20.

Note: New incoming freshmen must have their account balance paid in full or enrolled in a payment plan prior to moving in.

Installment Payment Plan

For any student not paying the full amount due on his or her billing statement by October 20 and who has not signed up previously through the IUP EasyPay for a payment plan, the Office of Student Billing will assume the student has chosen the IPP two-payment plan and will automatically enroll them in this plan for a one-time fee per term of $35. If you are paying less than the full amount because you have an approved deduction that is not listed on the billing statement, please contact Financial Aid at 724-357-2218 or the Office of Student Billing at 724-357-2207 to clarify aid concerns.

The IPP plan allows students to pay their semester school fees by making monthly payments. The IPP is also available during summer sessions. A one-time, per-term, nonrefundable fee is charged to cover administrative expenses. You can choose your IPP online through IUP EasyPay.

The following IPP options are available:

Fall/spring monthly semester option

• Pay one-fifth of your balance by the due date of your bill (Fall, July 20/Spring, December 20). Payments are due on the 20th of the next four months.  A statement will be online each month, indicating the amount due. A nonrefundable, one-time fee per term of $35 is charged for enrollment in this plan.
• Pay one-fourth of your balance by the due date of your bill (Fall, August 20/Spring, January 20). Payments are due on the 20th of the next three months. A statement will be online each month, indicating the amount due. A nonrefundable, one-time fee per term of $35 is charged for enrollment in this plan.
• Pay one-third of your balance by the due date of your bill (Fall, September 20/Spring, February 20). Payments are due on the 20th of the next two months. A statement will be online each month, indicating the amount due. A nonrefundable, one-time fee per term of $35 is charged for enrollment in this plan. You could incur late fees if you wait to sign up for this plan.

Summer monthly semester option

• The first billing available in April will offer a three-payment option (May, June, and July 20). The second billing in May will offer a two-payment plan (June and July 20).  All summer balances are to be paid in full by July 20. A nonrefundable, one-time fee of $35 is charged for enrollment in this plan.

For any student not paying the full amount due on their billing statement and who has not signed up through the IUP EasyPay, the Office of Student Billing will assume the student has chosen the IPP and will automatically enroll them in the two-payment plan for the one-time, nonrefundable fee of $35. If you are paying less than the amount because you have an approved deduction that is not listed on the billing statement, please contact Financial Aid at 724-357-2218 or the Office of Student Billing at 724-357-2207 to clarify aid concerns

A late payment fee of $20 will be assessed on each monthly payment received five days after the due date, with a maximum of $80 per semester. Your financial aid cannot replace your installment payment unless it covers your IPP account in full.

If a student receives financial aid that will reduce or pay off the IPP, it is the student's responsibility to contact the Office of Student Billing in Clark Hall and provide a copy of proof of aid.

The Student Billing Office reserves the right to place a financial hold on any student's account with no payments or an outstanding balance on the account. All balances need to be paid in full before the end of the semester. The financial hold prevents students from registering and requesting transcripts.
