Why stand in line?
WE'RE ONLINE!
We encourage you to make your tuition payment by check or credit/debit card at www.mwsu.edu/onlinepayments. Payments are fast, easy, and secure. This website is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for your convenience.
Important News!
Effective August 1 2010, a 2.75% convenience fee, approved by the Board of Regents, will be assessed on all credit card (MasterCard, American Express, or Discover) payments for tuition/fees. A convenience fee covers charges assessed by credit card companies for providing the service. Due to VISA association rules regarding convenience fees, VISA cards can no longer be an accepted form of credit/debit card payment. To avoid the convenience fee, you can pay using the web check payment option. Such a measure allows MSU to focus its budget on the entire student body and on the academic mission of the university.

Release of Information

In accordance with FERPA Guidelines and the Gramm Leach Bliley Act, financial information is not a matter of public record. Students must submit to the Business Office a signed Release of Information Document stating to whom we can release this information. Once a Release of Information Document has been supplied to the Business Office it will remain in effect until the student retracts permission in writing to the Business Office.
