Tuition and fees will be assessed to your bursar account, and you will receive notifications about this account through your university email account. Make sure you understand your obligations by reading the financial agreement below.
By enrolling in classes at Indiana University, you are entering into a legally binding contract in which you acknowledge and agree to pay all tuition and fees assessed to your bursar account.

Published drop/add deadlines also apply regardless of the method of instruction.
You understand that if you allow your bursar account to become delinquent, University services such as future registration, release of transcript, the conferral of your degree and/or diploma, and other certifications will be encumbered until such time as your account is paid in full. In addition, you understand that Indiana University may refer your past due account for collection, report your delinquency to the credit bureau system, authorize legal action against you for the collection of this debt and report the debt to the Indiana Department of Revenue Tax Interception Program. You agree to be liable for all collection fees, plus any court and/or attorney fees resulting from the enforcement of this agreement (as allowed under Indiana Code section 21-14-2-11), necessary for the collection of any amount not paid when due.

You understand and agree that if you accrue an unpaid balance, you authorize the University and/or its agents, including attorneys and collection agencies, to contact you via cellular telephone and/or all forms of electronic technology (to include text messaging and email) to collect such outstanding debt, unless you notify the agent in writing to cease electronic/cellular communication.
You understand that neither suspension or expulsion from Indiana University ends your obligation to pay any unpaid tuition and fees assessed to your bursar account. You further understand that suspension or expulsion will result in the forfeit of paid tuition and fees for the semester in which you are suspended or expelled.
