Billing Schedule – If you are registered at the time the first bill is generated, three bills are issued for the Fall and Spring semesters. Newly registered students are billed for the first time on the Monday following their registration. One bill is issued for each Summer semester:

a) Fall 2013 Semester

First e-bill issued July 22 and due August 21
Second e-bill issued September 2 and due September 25
Third e-bill issued September 30 and due October 16

b) Spring 2014 Semester

First e-bill issued December 9, and due January 15

Second e-bill issued January 27 and due February 26

Third e-bill issued March 3 and due March 19

c) Summer 2013 Semesters

Summer 1 e-bill issued April 15 and due May 15
Summer 2 e-bill issued June 3 and due June 26
Final summer e-bill issued July 1 and due July 17

Tuition bills are issued according to the billing schedule noted above. Since e-mail is the official means of communication for Temple University, only e-bills are issued unless a student is not currently enrolled and owes a balance. Paper bills will not be mailed. Bills notifications are sent to your official Temple e-mail account and bills will be available in TUpay. Bills can also be e-mailed to your parent or other individuals if you set them up as an authorized payer in TUpay (click here for instructions on how to authorize a payer).

The total amount due must be received by final due date. Failure to pay in full by the final bill due date for the semester will result in the assessment of a $60 late payment fee and a financial hold on your account preventing future semester registration.

The Tuition Payment Options are as follows:

a) Pay the bill in full (pay your total balance by the due date on the first bill of the semester)

b) Temple Deferred Payment Plan – for the first bill of the fall semester and the first bill of the spring semester, students must pay the minimum amount due to avoid having their classes cancelled. Students are automatically enrolled in the deferred payment plan if they are unable to pay the total amount due by the weekend before the semester starts. The payment plan provides students with a grace period until mid-semester to pay the bill in full. The deferred payment plan is only offered in the fall and spring semesters and carries a non-refundable payment plan fee of $25 per semester.

c) Temple Installment Payment Plan (TIPP) (a pre-payment plan operated by Higher Education Services) which allows Temple students to make up to 10 regularly scheduled monthly payments towards their tuition charges.

Tuition payments can be made:

a) On-line via TUpay - You can pay online by electronic check or credit card.

E-check - is a fast and secure method to electronically pay your bill from a checking or savings account. There is no convenience fee when paying by e-check.

Credit-card – MasterCard, Discover and American Express are accepted. If you pay by credit card, it can only be done online and our vendor will assess a 2.75% convenience fee in addition to tuition and fees.

b) By mailing* a check and bill remittance to our P.O. Box listed on the remittance. Include your TUid on the memo line on the check.

*(Allow 7 - 10 Business days for mail receipt and processing.)
