TUITION, FEES, DEPOSITS AND REFUNDS
Tuition and fees for the Fall and Spring semesters are payable in two
installments. The first installment is 50% of the total bill. The second
installment will require payment of the remaining balance on the account.
Please see the schedule below for approximate billing dates and due dates.
Each time a student fails to meet a payment due date, a Late Payment Fee
will be assessed to the tuition account. Note: Failure to receive the
billing notice will not excuse the student from payment responsibility, nor
the late payment penalties. Students may review their tuition and fees
account using E-BRUNO at www.ses.unomaha.edu/cash.
UNOmaha accepts major credit cards for payment of tuition and
fees. When mailing credit card payments, please use the
remittance form on your tuition and fees billing statement. Credit card
payments will be accepted only with the cardholder's signature. No credit
card payment will be accepted over the telephone, via FAX or e-mail.
UNOmaha also accepts cash, checks and money orders for the payment of
tuition and fees.
Tuition and fee payments are to be mailed to the Cashering/Student
Accounts Office, 109 Eppley Administration Building, Omaha, NE 68182.
Payments may also be made at the Cashiering/Student Accounts window, or
submitted using the cashiering/student accounts credit card payment form
at www.ses.unomaha.edu/cash. This website is a secured transmission with
immediate payment authorization/response.

are subject to special refund rules as established by the U.S. Department of
Education. A financial aid recipient should first contact the Office of
