Important Announcements

Spring 2025 Undergraduate Tuition Billing

Spring 2025 undergraduate student bills will be made available online, through SMUpay, on the afternoon of December 19, 2024 and the payment due date is January 14, 2025. Be sure to check your ÃÛÌÒ½´email account frequently to avoid missing important information, including billing notifications. To view and pay your bill, please click on the red “Pay Now” link above the menu on the right side of this screen. If your aid is not appearing on your bill as Anticipated Aid, please be patient. Due to the 6 month delay in FAFSA processing, it is taken significantly longer this year. We appreciate your patience. Parents/guardians must have been granted access by their student in order to view and pay their student’s bill. For further information on how to gain parent/guardian access, please see below.

Important: Depending on whether you have registered for all of your classes at the time of the Fall billing, your bill may only reflect a portion of your full semester charges. Please be sure to log in to SMUpay to view your updated balance if you register for classes on or after December 19, 2024.

ÃÛÌÒ½´has partnered with GradGuard to provide tuition insurance to enrolled students. To learn more about GradGuard and Tuition Insurance, please visit the following url: .
