Tuition and fees are due the first day of the semester or if you start mid-semester, it is due upon registration. If you are eligible, you will be offered the opportunity to participate in the NKU Installment Plan which breaks your full payment into 4 installment payments. If you are not on the plan, any balance will be charged a 1.5% monthly account maintenance fee. If you are on the Installment Plan you will only accrue maintenance charges if you miss a payment. If no action is taken, you could be dropped for non-payment. Please note, the Installment Plan option is only offered during the fall and spring semesters to eligible students.
If you are currently enrolled, your account must have a balance of less than $500 before you can register for a future enrollment period.
To avoid a financial obligation to NKU and or grade liability, class withdrawals must be processed by the end of the 100% adjustment (refund) period for each term or session. The adjustment (refund) period dates can be found in the academic calendars.
