Tuition and Fee Information

Financial Responsibility Agreement

When a student registers for classes, they create a financial obligation to Morehead State University. The total semester charges (tuition, housing, meal plans, books and fees) less financial aid, scholarships, waivers, and third-party payments received for each semester result in the amount due to the University. 

All students must accept a Financial Responsibility Agreement and pay their balance in full or enroll in a payment plan to activate their meal plan and BeakerBucks, to allow textbook charges at the University Store, and to prevent cancellation of their class schedule.

1. Accept your Financial Responsibility Agreement.
2. Pay your account in full or enroll in a payment plan (1/5 down payment required) if you have a balance due. Review the academic calendar for due dates. It is available at https://www.moreheadstate.edu/academics/academic-affairs/registrar/.

To "Accept" your Financial Responsibility Agreement:

1. Login to MyMoreheadState at my.moreheadstate.edu.
2. Select “Self-Service”.
3. Select “Student Finance” and then “Financial Agreement.”
4. Read the agreement, then select "Accept" and click SUBMIT.

Billing Statements

Morehead State University does not send out paper bills. Students will receive an email via their MSU email account once billing is available online via Self-Service Student Finance. It is the student's responsibility to check their MSU email account on a regular basis. After acceptance to the University, students should establish an MSU email address by visiting MyMoreheadState and selecting Eagle Account Center.

Tuition and Fee Schedule is available at https://www.moreheadstate.edu/admissions/tuition. Tuition and fees are subject to change without notice by the Council on Postsecondary Education and the University's Board of Regents. Morehead State University reserves the right to deny credit based on prior payment history.

Payment Plans

Morehead State University offers a payment plan for students who need to setup installment payments for their balance due. One-fifth of your balance and a $50 installment payment fee is due at the time of enrollment. (See Academic Calendar for due dates.)

• Fall semester – amount available for payment plan is divided into five payments due July/August (1^st payment due at time of enrollment), September, October, November, and December. 
• Spring semester - amount available for payment plan is divided into five payments due December/January (1^st payment due at time of enrollment), February, March, April, and May. 
• Summer – must pay account in full or enroll in a payment plan by the deadline date for each summer session. One payment plan will cover all summer sessions. (See Academic Calendar for deadlines.) 
• Winter – must pay account in full before the start of the session (See Academic Calendar for deadlines.)

Students must make payments as scheduled above to avoid a late payment charge at the monthly rate of 1.0% on outstanding balances and to avoid having a hold being placed on their account.

Credit/Adjustments

Tuition, housing, and course fees may be credited to students who withdraw during certain time periods, following the start of each term. Meal plan and minimum dining club accounts may be credited in accordance with the percentages listed below or the actual account balance, whichever is smaller. All other fees are non-refundable.
