Important Dates

Options For Paying Your Tuition Bill

• Pay by cash, money order, check, MasterCard, VISA, or Discover at Registration & Records on the Harrison or Mt. Pleasant Campuses.
• Pay online with MasterCard, VISA, or Discover by logging into Self-Service. A 2.75% convenience fee is assessed for credit/debit card transactions.
• Pay with financial aid if you have sufficient funds to cover your balance.
• Set up an automatic payment plan using Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS). NBS charges a fee of $30 for using their payment plan service. If a credit/debit card is used, a convenience fee in addition to the enrollment fee will be assessed. You can opt to pay in full through NBS using your checking or savings account for $3. The number of payments you make will vary depending on when you set up your payment plan. 

Enrollment Fee

• An enrollment fee is required each semester, with the amount based on the date you register. The fee is $50 if you enroll during the early enrollment period and if you register during the late enrollment period the fee is $100.

Information On Dropping & Withdrawing From Courses

• You may drop (with a refund) or withdraw (no refund) from a course using Self-Service or in person at Registration & Records on the Harrison or Mt. Pleasant Campuses. Phone requests are not accepted.
• To protect your GPA and financial aid eligibility, always check with Mid's Financial Aid team or your Mid Mentor before dropping or withdrawing from a course.
• For courses scheduled for 4 weeks or less, the deadline to drop and receive a full refund is the second day of the course. The deadline to withdraw from a course scheduled for 4 weeks or less is 7 days before the course ends. If the course is scheduled for 1 week, the deadline to withdraw is the day before the course is scheduled to end.
• Make sure that your courses have been properly dropped by the deadline if you elect not to participate in a course. If you do not drop a course by the deadline you will be responsible for the costs associated with that course whether you participate or not. 

Financial Aid

• If you receive financial aid you may charge books and supplies in the Bookstore with the monies left after your tuition and fees are subtracted from your financial aid award.
• All financial aid is subject to change. Financial aid is based on many factors, including whether you attend Mid as a full or part-time student. Your financial aid will be adjusted based on your registration status.
• You must participate in your courses to receive your awarded financial aid. Participation is verified and financial aid is adjusted for non-participation before and after funds are disbursed. Your financial aid may be withdrawn, and you may be billed, if you do not participate in your courses.
• Financial aid refunds are available approximately 6-8 weeks after the start of the semester. There may be a delay in financial aid refund availability based on the start date of particular courses.

Purchasing Books in the Bookstore

• You may use your financial aid balance to pay for books and supplies in the Bookstore typically beginning the week before courses start. You must show your ID to use financial aid for books and supplies in the Bookstore.
• You can also use cash, check, MasterCard, VISA, and Discover debit/credit cards to purchase books and supplies.

Student ID & Printing/Copying

• To help protect your privacy, Mid requests that you use your student ID number instead of your social security number on all documents. Your student ID number is located in the upper left-hand corner of your registration statement. A valid photo ID and a current course schedule are required to obtain a student ID which is issued in Library & Learning Services on both the Harrison and Mt. Pleasant Campuses. Replacement ID cards are $5.
• Your student ID number will be used for printing and making copies. Full and part-time students are automatically issued $10 for printing and copying every semester. This money is put on your account and can only be accessed by using your student ID number when printing or making copies.
• Full-time students can request an additional $10 once per semester in person at Registration & Records on the Harrison or Mt. Pleasant Campuses. Additional monies can be added anytime at Registration & Records on either campus when paying with cash or check. If paying with credit card, click on ‘add credit’ when logged into your Papercut account.
