THE TUITION / FEE PAYMENT PROCESS

At Macon State College we strive to maintain a tuition / fee payment process that simplifies payments for students, improves communication about deadlines between students and the Bursar's Office, and encourages students to finalize registration before classes begin.  The major points of the process are listed below, but remember, if you ever have any questions about the tuition / fee payment process or your payment status, please call the Bursar's Office at 471-2705 or stop by any of our payment locations.

• Students' classes will be automatically secured when sufficient aid to cover tuition and fees is awarded.  To check payment status, go to Banner Web to confirm award status.
• To better inform students of approaching deadlines, the Bursar's Office will send billing notifications to students who have not completed the payment process. Starting with the Spring 2012 semester, these notifications will be delivered via eBill paperless billing (electronically). After receiving email notification that a new eBill is ready, students will access the bill via single sign-on through BannerWeb.
• To encourage students to register before classes begin, a late payment fee of $50 will be assessed for students registering on or after the first day of class.  

To ensure that you are aware of all payment deadlines, check your campus email account early and often! Here are some more helpful hints to help you navigate through the process:

• Complete your financial aid process EARLY so that your award is posted prior to the payment deadline.
• Don't wait until the payment deadline to check your financial aid status in case something is needed to complete your file!  Check your status on Banner Web. To do so, refer to instructions provided by the Financial Aid Office at: http://www.maconstate.edu/finaid/banner_instructions.aspx
• Make sure you register BEFORE classes begin!

If you have any questions,  please call the Bursar's Office at 471-2705 or stop by one of our Campus payment locations in the Student Life Center (Macon), Academic Services building (WRC), or Robins Resident Center (RAFB).  We're here to help you!
