Six Places To Look for Money for College

Before you give up - here are six places to look for money for college.

Student Bills - Are You Up-to-Date?

With the spring term underway, students should either have (a) paid their bill in full or (b) signed up for a monthly payment plan through CASHNet, our partner for structured payment plans and secure, on-line payments.  If the spring balance is still unpaid, it's not too late to sign up for a payment plan!  Note that unaddressed balances incur higher fees and finance charges and also cause the account to be put on hold.  That can become an issue for the upcoming housing lottery and spring registration.  Contact the Student Accounts Office for details at 708-524-6487 or bursar@dom.edu.  We're here to ahelp.
