Approximate Educational Expenses Per Semester

Payment Options
McNeese accepts cash, money orders, personal checks, MasterCard, and VISA credit cards for payment of fees.

Fee Deferral Plan
A Fee Deferral Plan is offered to students attending McNeese. All registration fees, including tuition, special assessments, class-related fees, as well as meal plans, are eligible for the Fee Deferral Plan. Part-time or full-time registered students are eligible for the plan if they have not defaulted on a previous Fee Deferral Plan Loan or a bookstore Personal Touch Account and if their fees are either not covered, or only partially covered, by student financial aid.

Students are required to pay one-half of the total amount of the fees during regular registration and the remaining half payment during the semester. A $30 non-refundable fee is assessed for this option. Late fees will be assessed and all payments are to be made at the Cashier's Office in Smith Hall. For more information, call the Cashier's Office at 475-5098.

Personal Touch Accounts (PTA)
The McNeese Bookstore offers students an interest free student account called a Personal Touch Account (PTA). The account can be used at the beginning of each semester for one month. To establish a line of credit, a student must have a valid ID and current paid fee receipt and must sign the McNeese credit contract. Refunds on books and supplies are credited to a student's account. At the close of the purchasing deadline, students are mailed a bill for bookstore purchases. One half of the total bill is due the first month and the remaining balance is due the next month. No interest is charged; however, late payment fees are assessed.
