Important Announcements
Past Due Fees
Beginning this month, SMU will resume the assessment of monthly past due fees of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month on unpaid past due balances. For miscellaneous account balances, the past due fee will assess monthly starting on September 26, 2022. For student account balances, the past due fee will assess monthly starting October 25, 2022. Past due fees are non-reversible and non-disputable.
Fall 2022 Undergraduate Tuition Billing
Fall 2022 undergraduate student tuition bills will be made available online, through SMUpay, on July 26, 2022 and the payment due date is August 12, 2022. Be sure to check your SMU email account frequently to avoid missing important information, including billing notifications. Be sure to add your parent(s)/guardian(s) as authorized payers so they may receive emailed notifications when bills are available (see “Parent/Guardian Access to Student Records (my.SMU) and Authorized Payer Portal (SMUpay)” below).
Important: Depending on whether you have registered for all of your classes at the time of the July billing, your bill may only reflect a portion of your full semester charges. Please be sure to log in to SMUpay regularly to view your updated balance if you register for classes on or after July 25.

If you are a parent/guardian who would like to receive billing notifications and become authorized by your student to make payments on his or her behalf, your student must first set you up as an authorized payer (SMUpay) by following instructions found here.
