Online services allow you to take care of most of your financial business, including:

  • making payments,
  • applying for a tuition loan,
  • recalculating your bill, and
  • printing payment receipts.

Tuition Payments

After you register for classes, you are required to pay your tuition bill by the due date, or your classes will be cancelled. Due dates vary by registration period - check the printed or web version of the Course Schedule for specific dates. Your bill is available online at the My Tuition Bill link in UT Direct. Check the Student Accounts Receivable web site for payment methods.

The amount you owe may be zero if your entire bill is being paid by a third-party, a UT department, or an exemption or waiver. Or, your bill may be covered entirely by financial aid, including scholarships, grants and fellowships. In either case, you must go to the My Tuition Bill web site to complete the registration process. If you do not do this by the due date, your classes will be cancelled. You are responsible for completing your registration, including payment, regardless of the source of funds.

If you add classes, you may owe an additional amount. You will not get a paper bill, so check the My Tuition Bill link from the Student Accounts Receivable site for the amount you owe and the due date. Refunds for cancelled classes will be issued after the add/drop period, and will be mailed to your local address.

Please keep your addresses current on your student record, including your email address. They are used for mailing bills and refund checks, and for sending payment reminder messages. Update your addresses in UT Direct or Registrar's Services Online.

Tuition Assistance

If you are employed in an eligible job title and meet certain requirements, you or your dependents may qualify for a non-resident tuition waiver. Application forms are available in the Publications section of the Student Accounts Receivable web site and completed forms must be returned to the Graduate Studies office.

Teaching Assistants and Assistant Instructors receive an amount of tuition assistance which is based upon the number of work hours and is subject to tax withholding. This tuition assistance is not applied directly to your bill, but is issued to you as a reimbursement several weeks after the beginning of the semester.

The Student Accounts Receivable web site has additional information on these and other helpful topics. You may contact us by telephone at 512/475-7777, send e-mail to fbic@forum.utexas.edu, or come by our office in Room 4 of the Main Building.
