Find everything you need to know about tuition and fees, billing deadlines, setting up authorized users, enrolling in payment plans and requesting refunds. Be sure to review each section carefully so you don’t miss important steps or deadlines.
Understanding Your Bill
UND does not mail paper bills to students. Instead e-Bills will appear in your Campus Connection account. It's your responsibility to regularly monitor your Campus Connection account.
e-Bills Notifications
- At the beginning of each month, you'll receive an email notification to your UND student email that a new e-Bill is available.
- No e-Bill is issued if your balance is zero at the time of generation.
- e-Bills are available online for 12 months.
- Even if you don't receive the e-Bill notification, you are still responsible for paying any charges on your account.
View Your Balance
- Log in to Campus Connection.
- Click the Financial Account tile.
- Select Pay Online Now.
- Click the UND box. You will be re-directed to the QuikPAY payment page.
You can pay general account charges or submit prepayments for specific charges (e.g., housing or rent).
Billing for Non-Students
- Companies and individuals who are not registered students receive a monthly billing statement by mail, typically at the beginning of each month.
- If your mailing address changes, please notify One-Stop Student Services right away to ensure you continue receiving billing statements on time.
Your student account includes charges, payments, financial aid credits and your current balance.
Key Terms
- Current Balance: Your up-to-date balance (including recent charges or payments).
- Statement Balance: The balance at the time your last e-Bill was generated.
- Statement Date: The date your most recent e-Bill was issued.

Disbursement
If you've accepted financial aid, it will be automatically applied to your student account in Campus Connection.
- Undergraduate Students: Your financial aid will be applied to your bill after the last day to add or drop a course for the semester.
- Graduate, Law and Medical Students: Your financial aid will be applied to your bill before the start of the semester.
Enrollment Verification
Before financial aid funds are applied:
- UND will verify that your enrolled credits match the requirements for your aid amount.
- If needed, adjustments will be made to your award to reflect your actual enrollment on the last day to drop/add a course for the semester.
- The University reserves the right to adjust your financial aid if additional information affects your eligibility.
Pay Remaining Charges
After your financial aid has been applied to your bill, please verify that it covered your total charges.
If it doesn't, you'll need to pay the outstanding balance by the deadlines each semester to avoid a late fee. Refer to Pay Remaining Charges for complete details.
Payment Deadlines & Late Fees
UND tuition, fees, housing and meal plan costs are due at the beginning of each semester according to the Billing & Payment Calendar.
All other charges (e.g., parking) are due when incurred.
Semester-Based Deadlines
To avoid late fees and registration holds, be sure to pay by the final billing deadline:
- Fall Semester: Oct. 15
- Spring Semester: March 15
- Summer Semester: July 15
Payments must be received (not just mailed) by the posted deadline to avoid a late fee. Please allow enough time for mail delivery.
Late Payment Fees
A 1.75% late fee is assessed monthly on all past due charges for both students and non-students, calculated on:
- Balances over 30 days late.
- Outstanding as of the 15th of each month.
Payments must be received (not just mailed) by the posted deadline to avoid a late fee. Please allow enough time for mail delivery.
Delinquent Accounts & Holds
Student accounts that are 30+ days past due with a balance of $750 or more will result in a delinquent account hold placed on your Campus Connection account.
If you have a delinquent account hold, you will not be allowed to do the following until your account balance is paid in full:
- Register for classes.
- Receive certification/transcripts of academic credits and grades.
- Graduate with your degree and receive your UND diploma.
Collection Agency
- UND may refer unpaid balances to a collection agency.

- Please contact One-Stop Student Services immediately if your account is past due, as this may prevent your account from being referred to a collection agency.
