Student Accounts

The Office of Student Accounts processes tuition bills, collects payments, and handles inquiries regarding tuition payment plans. Payments for tuition and fees must be received by the published payment deadline, prior to the start of each semester.

Introducing PayMyTuition (Launching June 15)

Lees-McRae College is currently upgrading the student account and billing systems to better serve students and their families. PayMyTuition, a new servicing platform accessed within Self-Service, will facilitate payment plan enrollment and provide convenient access for family members. These tools are an important part of planning for college expenses and will offer an improved and streamlined experience.

Students who would like to reduce their balance now are encouraged to submit a partial payment through Self-Service. Making a payment can help lower the overall balance and better position students to enroll in a payment plan once enrollment opens on June 15.

More information and instructions about the new payment platform will be shared prior to the June 15 launch.


Students are permitted to attend classes with any of the following:

  • Zero balance on their student account
  • Pending financial aid (as shown on the student account) in excess of the amount due
  • Successful enrollment in a payment plan with PayMyTuition
  • Written verification from a third party (such as Veterans Benefits, Vocational Rehabilitation, prepaid plans, tuition exchange, etc.) of payment in full


Failure to pay by the stated deadline will result in:

  • Withdrawal from classes by the Office of the Registrar
  • Cancellation of assigned housing
  • Ineligibility to receive college services, including official student transcripts
  • Ineligibility to participate in college activities (including athetics)

Payment Deadlines

  • Fall Term: July 1
  • Spring Term: December 1
  • Summer Term: First day of classes for each session

For classes that do not begin at the start of the semester, the payment deadline is the first day the class meets.

If additional charges are incurred after the payment deadline that result in a balance due, payment is required immediately.

Charges incurred after the completion of the semester (residence hall damage fee, unreturned books, parking fines, etc.) are due by the payment deadline of the next semester.

Payment Methods

The college makes use of paperless billing for student accounts. Billing and account information is available via Self Service. For assistance in Self-Service, refer to these tutorials.
