Payment of Charges

Payment of all student bills is due on the first day of classes. Those not paid in full on that date will be charged interest at a rate of 1.5 percent per month.

First Day of the Semester/Term:

  • All charges assessed by the University of Jamestown (tuition, fees, room, and board) are due and payable on the first day of the semester/term.
  • Unpaid balances begin accruing finance charges on the first day of class, which are added monthly.
  • A student may contact the cashier and discuss alternative payment arrangements for any unpaid balance. The cashier can be contacted by email at Colette.heilman@uj.edu or by telephone at 701-252-3467, ext. 5561.

Thirty Days after the First Day of the Semester/Term or the Completion of Four Weeks:

  • Meal plan and participation in co-curricular activities will be suspended for students with past-due accounts, or if the student is not adhering to approved payment arrangements.

Sixty Days after the First Day of the Semester/Term or the Completion of Eight Weeks:

  • The student is withdrawn from the University of Jamestown if a payment arrangement has not been approved or if an approved payment arrangement is delinquent.

Past due students accounts may be sent to a collection service.

One half of financial aid awarded to the student will generally be applied to each semester. The student will not be allowed to register for the next semester and credits will not be issued until the account is paid in full. The University reserves the right to withhold statements of honorable dismissal, credits, transcripts, and diplomas until all financial obligations have been met with the Business and Financial Aid Offices.
