Fees and Expenses

http://www.astate.edu/a/treasurers-office/

Student account balances are due in full the 11th class day for the Spring and Fall terms; 5th class day for Summer term. Students unable to meet this requirement should contact the Treasurer’s Office.

Late fees will be assessed on past-due installment plans and outstanding balances with no payment arrangements.

Those students who fail to clear their accounts will not be permitted to register for future terms. A “hold” will be placed on the student’s record, and information will not be released until the account is paid.

Any unpaid charges will remain the liability of the student and may be subject to collection fees, attorney fees, credit bureau reporting, or state income tax attachment (Act 732 of 1986 as amended.)

THE UNIVERSITY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO CHANGE THE AMOUNT OF FEES AND RELATED POLICIES OR TO ADD NEW ONES AT ANY TIME IF SUCH ACTION IS DEEMED NECESSARY.

Any fee changes are reflected on the A-State website. To access downloadable tuition and fee tables, please visit the Treasurer’s Office at http://www.astate.edu/a/treasurers-office/
