Student Accounts Office
The Student Accounts Office is responsible for sending out monthly statements to each student, posting payments, financial aid and loans to student accounts, and issuing refund and work-study checks. The following information should answer many common questions about the Business Office and its procedures:
Payments on student accounts - Payment for each semester is due on the first day of class and should be paid based on the Course and Fee Statement from the Badgerweb.
Payment plan - TMS (Tuition Management Systems) is the payment plan company we use to set-up payment plans. Using the payment plan allows you to break your annual cost over as much as 12 payments during the academic year.
You may contact them via phone at (800) 356-8329 or online or you may also contact the school directly and we will help you to set-up your plan.
Receiving/pledging work-study checks - Work-study checks or stubs are issued every other Friday and are placed in the student's campus mailbox. Students may receive their work-study pay one of three ways:
Students may sign-up for direct deposit so that their paycheck is automatically deposited into a checking or savings account.
Students may choose to cash their check and keep it for spending money. The cashier will cash checks for $100 or less for students Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
Students may choose to pledge their check towards their outstanding student account balance. With this option, checks will be automatically posted to the student's account each payday and will be reflected on their monthly statements.
A payday schedule will be distributed when school begins to all work-study students. All tax paper-work must be completed with the payroll office before their first work-study check can be issued.
Badger Bucks (flex dollars) - Badger bucks come with each meal plan and can also be purchased separately. Badger bucks are loaded onto a student's ID card and can be used at the various eateries on campus: McKinney's on the Hill, The Marketplace, the bar and grill at the golf course and Java City for food and non-alcoholic beverages. Badger bucks may be added at any time by contacting the Student Accounts office.
Enrollment Agreement- All students are required to complete this form. The Enrollment Agreement explains the financial policies of the school.
Options Form - This form gives several options with regards to tuition insurance, hold/refund authorization, authorization to apply federal aid the student's account and charging at the bookstore and golf course.
Bookstore Charges/Golf Course Charges - If you opt for charging privileges, the student will be allowed to use their student ID to charge at the bookstore and/or the golf course. A list of the charges made will appear on your monthly statement. Charging privileges can be revoked at any time by contacting the Student Accounts office.
Student Insurance - Student insurance is required for all traditional students. If you do not complete the on-line waiver within the time allotted, the student's account will automatically be charged for student accident and sickness insurance. Credits will not be issued for the insurance after the deadline.
