Payment Information

Housing payments are due by the dates as established in the tuition and fee schedule for ISU, unless the resident is paying through ISU's installment loan program. Housing payments are made through your MYISU portal. 

Please review the Division of Finance page for details on affordable payment plans, also referred to as installment loans.

For students not using the installment loan program, a $25 late fee may be assessed weekly per the signed Licensed Premises agreement. 

Payment plans may be accepted, but only when all awarded financial aid has been exhausted, including Pell grants, scholarships, subsidized loans, unsubsidized loans, Parent Plus loans, etc.

If the meal plan is not paid in full, and the student is not using an ISU installment loan, the meal plan will be deactivated until paid in full. The full meal plan price must be paid whether the meal plan is active or inactive.

If housing and/or meal plan charges are not paid in full by the time they are due, and no payment arrangements have been made, action may be taken up to and including eviction.
