An Important Note about Your Bill

The E-Bill is a "snapshot" of the charges, credits and anticipated credits to the student account, as of a specific date. This information is updated each billing cycle, whenever there is activity on the account. The E-Bill does not reflect changes to the account that occur daily between billing cycles. To see that information, students may go to Student Services Online (SSOL) and click on "account detail and refund request."
