Semester Payment Plan – Self-Service Portal

Jesse Hall at The University of Missouri

This page explains our payment plan option for paying your semester bill.

Students and/or authorized users MUST pay their semester balance in full by the first due date OR select the semester payment plan each semester the student is enrolled.

Failure to pay in full OR enroll in the payment plan by the enrollment deadline will result in the student account being placed into the Default Plan and a $200 non-refundable setup fee will be assessed to the account.

Students and authorized users that have been given access will receive monthly email reminders ahead of their payment due date.

If anticipated financial aid exceeds the total charges on your student account, you will not have a balance due and therefore, are not required to enroll in the payment plan.

View the Step-By-Step directions for enrolling in a payment plan on our How-To Videos and Step-By-Step Guides article.

Please be sure to complete ALL the steps of the Payment Plan Enrollment Process listed in the above document. Upon finishing the enrollment process, you will receive an email confirming your enrollment. You are NOT enrolled in the payment plan if you have not received this email.

Spring 2026 payment plan enrollment will begin on January 5, 2026. To enroll, students may access TouchNet by navigating to the Financial Tile in myZou. TouchNet authorized users may access TouchNet via the authorized user link.

Late Fees	1% of remaining account balance will be assessed if payment is not made by due date
Additional Info	Students who have a third-party sponsor paying on their behalf but will NOT have their authorization submitted before the first due date each semester will need to enroll in the semester payment plan to prevent being placed into the Default Payment Plan.

Failure to pay in full OR sign up for the payment plan by the enrollment deadline will result in the student account being placed in a default plan. The plan consists of three installment payments, and will be assessed a higher set-up fee.

Students and authorized users given access will receive monthly email reminders ahead of the payment due date.

If placed in the default payment plan, registration holds will be added to the student account until after the first installment due date and will only be removed if the installment payment was made on time. Default plan students must pay their account balance in full to have the registration holds removed prior to the first installment due date.

Due Dates	Set-up Fee (Non-Refundable) The “Set-up Fee” is listed as “Finance Charge” on the payment plan agreement.	Late Fee
Fall: 10/10, 11/10, 12/10 Spring: 3/10, 4/10, 5/10	$200	1% of remaining account balance will be assessed if payment is not made by due date

Additional Information:

Installment amounts are subject to change and will increase/decrease as new charges are added to accounts. Installments will NOT increase within 14 calendar days of any due date.

This is as of Spring 2026, prior to then the amount of days was 7.

All payments made towards student balances will apply to the oldest charges on accounts first. If you have a balance due on your student account prior to the payment plan term, your payment will apply towards the oldest balance first, and your installments for the current term will be recalculated. This includes any “Scheduled” payments on the payment plan.

The University reserves the right to un-enroll students for non-payment, as outlined in the Statement of Financial Responsibility they agree to upon enrollment at Mizzou.
