Billing Information

All registered students are mailed a paper invoice prior to the start of the term. If you register after the first batch of invoices has been mailed, you will receive a paper invoice in the mail during week three of the term. These invoices are mailed to the legal/home/permanent address you have on record with the Registrar's Office. Please note that you can always view your statement online at my.msoe.edu and that you are responsible for all charges regardless of whether or not you receive a paper invoice in the mail. Further note that charges are typically not updated on my.msoe.edu until week two of the term.

You can mail payments to the following address:

Student Accounts Office
Milwaukee School of Engineering
1025 N. Broadway
Milwaukee, WI 53202-3109

You can make cash, check or credit card payments in person at the Student Accounts Office located in CC-437. For your convenience we also have a drop box in which you can leave your payment. MSOE also accepts credit card payments (MasterCard, American Express, and Discover) via fax at (414) 277-4535, over the phone at (800) 886-6763, and online at my.msoe.edu. A convenience fee (2.75% of transaction amount) will be added to credit card payments.

Due Dates for 2012-2013
Tuition is always due by Monday of the third week of each term. For 2012-2013 the dates are as follows:

  • Fall Term - 9/17/2012
  • Winter Term - 12/10/2012
  • Spring Term - 03/18/2013

Past Due Accounts
Charges are due and payable by Monday of the third week of classes. Students who have settled in full all obligations to MSOE will be issued earned certificates, diplomas and transcripts, and will be permitted to register for the subsequent term. A student must have a zero balance to register for the next term.

If payment is not received by Monday of the third week, a late payment fee may accrue at a rate of 12 percent A.P.R (1 percent per month) until paid. Students whose financial aid has not transferred to their student account as of Monday of the third week of the term because they have not completed their financial aid, have not yet applied for financial aid, or have applied for financial aid late may be charged a late payment fee on the entire outstanding balance. Students that are sponsored by a company, Chapter 31, DVR, or a Foreign Embassy who have their letter of authorization on file in the Student Accounts Office by Monday of the third week of the term will not be charged a late payment fee on those charges covered by a company or agency. Failure to make payment does not relieve a student of their indebtedness to MSOE.

If a student does not make payments when due, MSOE reserves the right to require full payment of the subsequent quarter before the student may register for that quarter.

Book Purchase Policy
Students are able to charge their book purchases, made at the MSOE Bookstore, to their MSOE student account and will be billed for those charges on their next monthly invoice. In order to do this, students must present their MSOE student ID to the bookstore when purchasing their textbooks. You are able to charge your books to your student account during the two weeks before the term begins through the first Friday of the term (Please note that you must wait at least 24 hours after you have registered before you can charge your books this way). Students can only charge books and supplies to their account; students cannot charge MSOE apparel or souvenirs to their account.

Financial Aid Disbursement
All processed financial aid will transfer to your student account during the second week of the term and on a rolling basis from that time forward.

Credit Balance Refund Checks
If you have more financial aid disburse to your account than charges on your account you will have a credit balance. Credit balance refund checks will be processed after all financial aid has been disbursed to your account and will be mailed to your local address on record with the Registrar's Office. Credit balance refund checks as a result of a Parent PLUS loan will be mailed to the parent. Please allow 10 days for credit balance refund checks to be processed.

Noncredit Courses
Payment in full is required with registration.

Returned Checks
Checks received in payment of tuition and fees or cashed at the MSOE Bookstore which are returned by the bank "Non sufficient Funds", "Payment Stopped", or "Account Closed" will result in a charge of an additional $30.00 NSF check handling fee. If two (2) checks are returned from the bank, the student will lose their check writing privileges in the bookstore and their student account will be annotated to require all future payments to be in cash, cashier's check, money order, or credit card.
