What do you owe?
Students may pay tuition and fees and other charges such as; housing, Child Development Research Center, library fines, and miscellaneous charges in person at the Cashier's Office, in the drop box, by mail or online by credit card. We do not accept international checks. Please note that payment by credit card can only be made online via the myWings web portal, using Discover, MasterCard or American Express. Visa cards are not accepted. We do not accept debit or credit card payments at the Cashier's Office. There is a 2.3 percent convenience fee for use of credit cards for online payments.
Students can also pay online via the myWings web portal with an electronic check. There is no convenience fee for paying with an e-check. Please verify the bank routing number and your checking account number before continuing. If the payment is returned by your bank unpaid, you may be assessed a return check service charge and a $100 late payment fee if the tuition payment is returned and restitution is not remitted in full by the due date.
Students can check the status of what they owe the University at any time on the myWings web portal with their student number and password. Click on the student tab & then "View and Pay Your Account." Students may also come into the Cashier's Office during regular business hours to obtain this information. Due to the Federal regulations and Privacy Act, we cannot give this information over the phone or via e-mail. We do not invoice or send statements.
Please check your account often through the myWings web portal to determine the status of your account, especially during drop/add week. Once you click the "View and Pay Bill" link, your account will display 3 amounts; account balance, pending aid/deferments, and amount due. If the billed amount due is positive, that is the amount you need to pay by the close of business on the due date to avoid a $100 late payment fee or from being purged from classes. If your billed amount due is zero or negative, it indicates you may be eligible for a refund. Pending aid/deferments may include amounts from Florida Prepaid, payment plans and any other sponsorship. When financial aid or a contract is actually disbursed and credited to your account and your obligations to the University have been paid, the remaining credit balance will be refunded to you via EFT to the bank account selected by you on the Direct Deposit Authorization Form. It is University Policy for (all) students to enroll in Direct Deposit. The University requires all students receiving institutional aid to enroll in Direct Deposit. You can enroll in direct deposit via the link on myWings and enter your bank routing and account numbers.
If you are on a wait-list for a class(es), you need to check your account on myWings daily to determine if you've been added to the class. Some students are added after the tuition deadline and are then fee liable. If you do not wish take the class, you must remove yourself from the wait list during drop/add week to avoid any fee liability for the course.
Please be aware that your financial aid may include some estimated amounts, especially Bright Futures and Academic scholarships. Therefore, you may be under or over paid after your financial aid is actually disbursed and credited to your account. Please check your billed amount due via the myWings web portal to determine if there have been any adjustments to your financial aid. Bright Futures and Florida Prepaid are based on the number of credit hours you are enrolled and will need to be adjusted if you add or drop classes. However, they will not be adjusted immediately, so to ensure you are aware of the changes you will need to review your account frequently.
If you have Bright Futures or Florida Prepaid, the chart below indicates the amount they will pay based on the number of registered hours:

If you choose a preferred lender for your student loan, it is disbursed to the university via EFT. If you choose a non-preferred lender (which sends your funds via a check), you will receive an e-mail notification to come to the Cashier's Office to endorse your check. The University will apply your check to your account balance when financial aid runs their disbursement process. A refund will be issued to you if applicable. According to Federal Title IV policy, financial aid may only pay the current year fees unless we have a prior authorization on file to allow us to pay your prior year charges up to $200. Please complete the Financial Aid Authorization Form if you owe prior year fees you must pay and would like us to deduct those from your current financial aid.
If you are in housing, the total amount owed will be shown as due. If you pend your housing charges against your financial aid, we will deduct the amount due prior to disbursing any refund. Your housing may also be deferred if you have a Florida Prepaid Housing Contract. You must contact housing directly to defer payment.
Please contact the Cashier's Office if you need assistance with paying online. Refer Housing's web site or contact them by phone at (904) 620-4663 for questions regarding housing.
