What is a bursar student account?
Each student attending Tiffin University, including the regional campuses, will have a financial account with the Office of the Bursar. This student account may include tuition and fee charges. Other charges may include room and board, student insurance fee, lab fees, bookstore charges, late fees, and other various fees.
How will I know when my bill is available?
When you sign up for e-billing, you will be asked for 3 e-mail
addresses. An e-mail notification will be sent to these addresses
when bills are available for viewing. If you forget to view your
bill once you’ve been notified that it is available, you will
receive an additional reminder e-mail a few days later.
My parents pay the bill, can they sign up for e-billing?
Although many parents pay the bills, the account is in the
student's name and is the student's responsibility. Once the student registers for e-billing, parents
will be able to create their own log-in to the student's e-billing
account.
What is a Financial Hold?
A financial hold will be placed on University records if you have an unpaid balance on your student account. Students will not be permitted to register for classes, receive a transcript or diploma, or receive grades with a financial hold on their account.
Why is financial aid not on my account?
You will need to contact the Office of Financial Aid in regards to aid not being applied to your student account. Please ensure that you have filed your FAFSA to apply for financial aid. You must apply for financial aid every year.
Will I receive two bills (one for tuition and fees and another for housing room and board)?
No. They are combined on a single bill.
Are tuition and fee waivers reflected on the bill?
Tuition and fee waivers should be reflected on your statement in
the form of a line item notation. You will continue to receive a
statement. If your waiver is not showing, you will need to contact
the Bursar's Office.
If my bill shows a zero (0.00) "amount due", do I need to do anything?
You do not need to do anything if your bill shows a zero balance.
If my bill shows a credit balance, do I need to do anything?
If your account reflects a credit balance, a refund will be generated for returning students three (3) weeks after the first day of classes. For graduate students and fast track students, refunds will be generated three (3) weeks after the first day of classes.
What if I don't want my refund?
If you do not want the credit on your account to be released to you, contact the Office of Financial Aid either by phone or by submitting a written request
How do I update my address?
You can update your address through the office of the Registrar.
