How to pay online

eCheck

Students and authorized payers are able to make payments in TouchNet directly from any checking account for free by using the web payment option (Electronic Funds Transfer), simply by entering the bank/financial institution routing and account number information at the time of online payment. 

Credit/Debit Card

Visa, American Express, Discover, and MasterCard are accepted. A 3% ($3.00 minimum) convenience fee will apply to any credit/debit card payments made.

PayPath Payments for Non-Authorized Users

For those that want to make a credit card payment on the behalf of a student but are not authorized users on TouchNet, please use our PayPath payment service.

Payment can be made by check or money order at the Student Financial Services (SFS) office located at G1 Parker Hall between the hours of 8:00am and 4:30pm, Monday through Friday.

Credit/Debit card and cash payments are not accepted in person.

After Hours Payments

After hours, payment can be made by a secure dropbox located across the SFS office. Only check or money order payments should be placed inside the drop box; no cash payments. Make your check or money order payable to “Missouri S&T” and include the student 8-digit ID number and First/Last Name.

Check Policies

If you choose to utilize the 529 college savings plan, you must initiate the payment from your 529 servicer and a check will be mailed to us from that provider.

  • You will usually need to allow 10-14 days for processing before your payment will reach us.
  • Please ensure the check references the student’s 8-digit ID number and First/Last Name.
  • Checks can be mailed to the address listed below and payable to “Missouri S&T”:

Accepted financial aid is used to reduce the outstanding balance on a student’s account. Prior to the financial aid disbursement date, the aid will appear as “Anticipated Aid” on the monthly statement and will reduce the current term balance due. Any balance remaining after application of the anticipated aid will be billed to the student. 

Students must apply for financial aid in a timely manner. Late applications could result in late payment fees if payment is not received while waiting for financial aid to be applied. Financial aid is not considered as eligible for refund until it appears in the Current Payments/Credits section of the monthly billing statement.

A student's financial aid cannot be used to repay debts incurred during previous terms.

The UM System supports employees and their families who choose to continue their education. Faculty and staff who choose to pursue or continue their college education—as well as eligible spouses and dependents—can receive assistance at any of the universities within the UM System.
