Tuition & Payment FAQ

When is Spring 2025 tuition due?

January 5, 2025. All payments must be received and cashiered on or before this date. We do not consider “post-marked” dates as “paid”. To ensure that your payment is received before the deadline, you must pay online.

Where do I find out how much I owe?

Log in to your CSUMB Dashboard, and go to OASIS. Your most current account balance will be on your Student Center. See instructions on how to log in and view your account balances. Please do not refer to Cashnet for your actual balance owed.

Is there any kind of payment plan available for tuition & fees?

Yes. Students may self-enroll in the  Tuition & Fees Installment Payment Plan (IPP).  

I have a “Payment Extension” hold on my account. What does this mean?

This hold does not block registration for classes. In fact, it holds you in your classes. You have been granted an extension because tuition & fees are covered by financial aid, or the student has a third party authorization form covering registration tuition & fees on file with Student Accounting. This extension is found in the “Holds” section of the student’s Student Center. If you have this extension, you will not be dis-enrolled from classes. Your tuition deadline has been extended to February 4, 2025.

I have an “FA Housing Payment Extension” hold on my account. What does this mean?

You have been granted this extension because tuition & fees, housing, and meal plan charges are covered entirely by financial aid, or a combination of student payments, financial aid payments, and/or third party payment. This extension is found in the “Holds” section of the student’s Student Center. If you have this extension, your tuition, housing, and meal plan payment deadline has been extended to February 4, 2025.

Why do I have the “Payment Extension” and “FA Housing Payment Extension” hold?

If you have housing charges in addition to your tuition & fess, and you have both of these extensions, it means that all of your charges (tuition, fees, housing, meal plan) are covered by financial aid, or a combination of student payments, financial aid payments, and/or third party payment. If you have both of these extensions, your tuition, housing, and meal plan payment deadline has been extended to February 4, 2025.

What do I do if my financial aid only covers a portion of tuition & fees?

You must pay the remainder of your tuition before January 5, 2025. Your full tuition & fees must be paid and/or covered by financial aid, on or before the payment deadline.

How do I get my financial aid money?

You must log in to your CSUMB Dashboard/OASIS and accept your financial aid (grants and loans). Your financial aid is paid against your charges due posted to your student account in OASIS. Financial aid payments are not given directly to the student.

When do I get my financial aid applied to my account?

Your financial aid money is disbursed to your CSUMB student account during the first week of classes. Your financial aid will be credited towards your “balance due” after it has been disbursed.

How/When do I get my financial aid refund?

If you have more financial aid than “charges due”, you will receive a refund. You will get your refund during the first week of classes after you enroll with BankMobile. If you have less financial aid than “charges due”, you will need to pay the difference before the tuition deadline .
