Summer Session

Learn more about financial aid as it applies to Summer Session at the Office of Financial Aid website. Disbursements of some types of financial aid will begin shortly before the start of Session 1.

When you finish registering, your schedule is official and you are officially registered in the university. This obligates you to pay all tuition and fees for your classes. If you wish to cancel this commitment and reduce or eliminate tuition charges for the term, you must officially cancel your registration or withdraw from the university. These important dates are listed by session in the academic calendar. 

A billing notice is sent to your ONID email on the 5th of each month, with a link to the MyBill bill & payment portal where you can view your billing statement, pay your bill and set up an authorized user to have access to pay your bill.  Find more student billing information online at Business Affairs.

After you register, tuition and fees for summer classes will not be posted to student accounts until late June. Tuition and fees are charged based on the total number of credits for which you register during the entire summer term, not the number of credits during each individual session.

For example, the following scenario would equal 11 total credits of tuition/fees:

Student account statements are produced at the beginning of each month (e.g. July). Unpaid balances remaining after the 1st of the following month (e.g. August) become past due and will be assessed an interest charge. Past due balances may prevent future access to registration and transcripts. The Business Affairs website contains more information regarding student billing.

All new students (except non-degree seeking) are charged a one-time fee of $350.00 at the start of their first term at OSU. This fee provides access to a variety of OSU programs and services at no additional charge. Programs and services included in the fee include, but are not limited to, open house programs, START, CONNECT, pre-enrollment advising, course drop/add/withdrawal, and official transcripts.

A student ID card service fee of $25.00 is charged to all new and readmitted students their first term after admission or readmission. For complete info, please visit this page.

Additional fees may accompany specific courses or be assessed as noted in the online Schedule of Classes or other materials may be required as noted with the OSU Beaver Store (e.g. textbooks, lab supplies, study abroad, field study, etc.).

When thinking about your VA education benefits, it’s best to think of summer session as being made up of 6 "mini-terms" throughout summer. Each “mini-term” gets certified independently and is viewed as its own term by the VA.
