Billing
Tuition and fees for credit courses are billed monthly by the University. Payments should be sent directly to the University Cashier's Office.
Electronic Billing (eBilling)
You will receive an email notification from the University when monthly billing statements are ready to view on RAMweb. An email notification is sent for any month you have activity on your student account. Email notifications are sent to your preferred email address; this is typically the email address associated with your Electronic Identity (eID) and can be updated from RAMweb.
Go Paperless
Save space in your mailbox — opt in to receive electronic billing statements only by selecting "Manage Access to My Records" in RAMweb. You'll need to check a box acknowledging that you understand the electronic billing notification information, then you can add additional email addresses to which your billing notifications will be sent.
Billing Statements and Payment Due Dates
Each billing statement has detailed financial information relating to each billing period and is not cumulative. Each statement includes a due date indicating when payment must arrive at the University Cashier's Office. See the table below for important initial billing and payment timeframes.

Any subsequent charges added to your student account are billed in full and due on the 10th of the following month, or the following business day if the 10th falls on a weekend or University holiday.
- Payments sent by mail must reach the University Cashier's Office by 4 p.m. on the due date.
- Payments by check are processed when received; postmarks do not apply and future dates are not honored.
Late Fees
The University assesses a 1.5% per month late charge on the past due amount if payment does not arrive by the due date or does not cover the total amount due. In addition to the late charge, the University places a hold on future registrations, grades, and transcript requests.
Students who are sponsored by a third party can request billing of tuition, course fees, and other related educational expenses be forwarded to their sponsors. Students or sponsors may request sponsor billing by providing an official letter or other authorizing document. Military organizations and most employers have official documentation; see your benefits office for more information or email charlotte.shanahan@colostate.edu for assistance in determining the appropriate paperwork to file.
Authorizing documentation must be received before the first due date of the semester to avoid late charges being assessed. Documentation must be submitted each term; it is important to plan ahead to avoid problems. Students should submit documents to:

Sponsor payments must be received by the due date on the sponsor invoice in order for you to be eligible to continue enrollment in subsequent terms. In any sponsored billing arrangement, you are ultimately responsible for the payment of University charges. If your sponsor fails to pay any amount invoiced, the original charges are returned to your student account and late charges are applied if payment is not received by the first due date. A non-refundable $40 Sponsor Billing Service Charge (per student per semester) is applied to all sponsored billings.
