Ferris State University offers several payment plans to pay your total semester charges if you do not pay your balance in full by the first due date of the semester.
Please select a semester to see the available payment plans:
If you have decided that you will not be attending FSU this semester, you will need to contact our Registrar’s office immediately at [email protected] or (231) 591-2792 to have your schedule removed. If you are registered for a course, you are responsible for tuition charges unless you drop the course by the University prescribed process and deadlines.
Following the above steps will enroll the student in a payment plan. You will receive an e-mail from “E-bill” when you have enrolled and also for any changes through the process. You will also receive a reminder e-mail when a payment due date is approaching.
A student can view their real-time balance through their E-bill account.
Students who have their first registration activity during the late registration period (typically during the week preceding classes), will not have an E-bill statement placed online for them. Instead, they will need to look at their On Demand/Real Time Statement or current activity in E-bill to view their charges and pending financial aid. These students will need to select a payment plan and make the required first installment after financial aid, pay the balance in full, or ensure there is sufficient financial aid to cover their semester charges by the business day before classes begin to avoid having their classes dropped.
Students who have no registration activity by the end of late registration, will have a Student Financial Services registration hold placed on their account and will need to have sufficient financial aid, select a payment plan and make the required payment (after financial aid), or pay their balance in full to avoid having their class schedule dropped for non-payment. The student should contact the Student Financial Services at (231) 591-3972 to have their registration hold lifted.
Students who wish to add additional credits must seek approval from the instructor and/or Dean's Office and need to have sufficient financial aid or pay the amount due depending on the payment plan that was selected at the beginning of the semester. If a student is not enrolled into a payment plan the additional credits must be paid in full.
If a student is not registered by the deadlines below for the semester, the Student Financial Services registration hold will not be lifted except in cases of a successful approval by the Dean's Office. Students initiate the request with their Dean's Office to enroll for the term and to receive permission for each class they wish to take. All students must satisfy one of the following requirements with Student Financial Services: have sufficient financial aid to cover the bill in full, submit out of pocket payment in full, or enroll in a payment plan and submit necessary payment. Past due balances must be paid in full.
