Payments and Financial Obligations

Here are some frequently asked questions regarding payment during OSU Summer Session.

When is my payment due?

Electronic billing statements are sent out on about the 5th of each month and are due upon receipt. Interest is assessed on unpaid balances following the first day of the next month.

Loans/financial aid/scholarships

Students have a variety of options available regarding student loans, financial aid and scholarships.

The OSU Student Loans office is responsible for the maintenance and collection of Federal Perkins Loans and OSU Institutional Loans. They provide the promissory note, send the exit interviews, process payments, deferments and cancellations, and handle billing and collection procedures for repayments. Go to Student Loans for more information on these programs.
