The student account balance, account activity, and monthly e-statements are accessible by students and Authorized Users via TouchNet. Monthly e-statements are generated for students with a balance due (or a credit balance available) the first week of each month with a corresponding email notification to students and their Authorized Users. 澳彩开奖 does not issue paper bills for active students.
The main term charges (tuition, student association fee, housing, meal plan, and health insurance) are assessed prior to the start of each term*.
Term Date | Billing Date | Payment Due** |
Fall | First Week of July | August 1 |
Spring | First Week of December | January 10 |
Throughout the term, miscellaneous new charges and credits; adjustments to existing charges and credits; and/or payments made may appear on the student account activity. The deadlines to pay miscellaneous balances throughout the term are indicated in emails and billing notifications sent to students and Authorized Users. Typically, charges assessed in the first two months of the term are due within one month, and charges assessed afterward are due within one week.**
The monthly billing notification is a courtesy to assist students with their responsibility to be aware of and take care of their student account. Students are responsible to know what their balance is, seek assistance if they have questions, and ensure their student account is in good standing.
* Upperclass students must be anticipated to enroll and be assigned to a housing/meal plan to be assessed the corresponding fees.
** If a family utilizes a monthly payment plan, the payment due dates are defined by the plan.
Financial Holds/Late Fee Assessment
Overdue balances will result in an Financial Hold, and are subject to monthly late fees of 1% of the balance (or a minimum of $1.00). Financial holds prevent a student from course registration, participating in the Drop/Add period, and diploma and graduation exercises.

As a student, you control who has access to your tuition bill. You can print out your bill from the electronic billing site TouchNet and share it with your grandparents (or any other interested third party). The payment can be mailed directly to 澳彩开奖: Office of Student Accounts, 澳彩开奖, 13 Oak Drive, Hamilton, NY 13346. Please ensure your full name and 澳彩开奖 ID number appear on the check.
Another option is to authorize us to share details of your student account with your grandparents. You can do so by establishing them as an Authorized User on TouchNet. Authorized parties to your student account can contact our office for assistance.
The fastest and most secure method of refund is via electronic (ACH) payment directly to a designated bank account. Students and families enter their bank account and routing information into a 鈥淪aved Payment Method鈥 on TouchNet and designate the account as a refund account. The Office of Student Accounts begins issuing refunds each semester the week before classes start.
It is also possible to receive refunds via direct deposit to a bank account set up through Payroll or by paper check to the 澳彩开奖 mailbox.
If an account credit balance is not automatically issued, students and families should contact the Office of Student Accounts.
Students whose permanent home address is outside the United States are required to enroll in the 澳彩开奖 student health insurance. Domestic students living in the United States do not have to purchase 澳彩开奖鈥檚 health insurance. However, it is a requirement that all students are covered with a health insurance policy. If a student is covered by a private, family policy based in the U.S., and proof of coverage is submitted via the waiver process by the annual August 1 deadline, the health insurance premium will be waived. Additional information on the 澳彩开奖 health insurance program and process can be found here.
All enrollment verification is performed by the Registrar鈥檚 office. Families can call the Registrar at 315-228-7408 or email the request to registrar@colgate.edu.
