Information on Fees

Late Payment Fee (Traditional undergraduate and graduate students only)
If a student is registered in a timely manner, Eastern University will send a bill well in advance of the payment due date.  If payment is not made prior to 2 weeks before the class start, a Late Payment Fee of $110.00 may be assessed. This fee is in addition to any fees charged for selection of a multiple payment option if the student should make payment arrangements after the first day of classes for the given semester.

Monthly Service Charge on Delinquent Accounts
A Monthly Service Charge of 1.5% will be added to all accounts that become delinquent. In addition, the Monthly Service Charge is added to all delinquent accounts that are carrying past due balances. The Monthly Service Charge is added to accounts just prior to the mailing date of the Monthly Account Statements. If the student has chosen one of the multiple payment options and keeps current with his /her payments, no Monthly Service Charge will be billed.

Wind Energy Fee (Traditional undergraduate and graduate students only)
The Student Government Association (SGA) has asked that the University assess an annual fee of $25.00 to each student, so that Eastern can buy electric power from wind energy sources. The SGA's recommendation is based on a report from the Sustainable Peace Initiative (SPI), a group of Eastern students and faculty, who have called the community to a more sacred stewardship of our environment. The SPI report documents the positive effects of wind-generated energy on our air and health. The fee is included in your bill, but will be deducted if you choose not to participate. (Participation options are provided on your session bill.)
