Make Plans For Your Tuition Payment

Now is a great time to start making plans to pay your tuition and fees (learn more about payment deadlines here). 

Financial Planning

While the financial aid process is one aspect of planning for college finances, you should consider the additional costs associated with attending college. To help you better understand the cost of attending Radford University, we have included brief descriptions of direct costs and indirect costs below:

DIRECT COSTS are costs payable to Radford University. This includes the cost of your tuition and mandatory fees, as well as your residence hall charge and meal plan if you are living on campus or in a University apartment. Tuition and fee amounts can be found here

INDIRECT COSTS are estimates for personal expenses that students should anticipate, including things like books and supplies, personal expenses and transportation. They are applicable to in-state and out-of-state students, and we strongly encourage students to set a budget for personal expenses to ensure they have enough money available throughout the school year.  We suggest an estimate of $1,200 per year (or $600 per semester) be used when considering what it will cost you to purchase books and supplies.

Payment

Payment is due for the Fall semester in August. Radford offers multiple account payment options for your convenience. We've outlined some below, and you can find additonal details on the Office of the Bursar's website here

Set up Authorized Payers

Authorized payers are individuals other than the student with access to the student account, billing statements and capability to make payments online. Authorized payments must be set up by the student; this is separate from a FERPA release. Learn how to set up an authorized payer on the  Office of the Bursar website here.

Payment Plan

Radford University's Payment Plan allows students to pay equal amounts of their bill in three, four or five installments. Payment plan enrollment begins in early May. Earlier enrollment in a payment plan ensures payment options over more months and less money due per month.
