Payment FAQs

Questions about payments?

Your Student Account

What is a student account?

Most charges are billed through your Student Account Center at payments.nevadastate.edu, where you can securely manage and pay your account balances. Items on your student account may include registration fees, tuition, special course fees, and other miscellaneous charges. Tuition and fee charges are assessed immediately upon registration and are due before the start of each semester.

Housing charges may be added to the accounts of students with available financial aid; however, housing payments cannot be made through your student account. Instead, payments must be made electronically through your Resident Portal at www.livethevillagenevadastate.com or in person at The Village leasing office.

• Accepted payment methods for housing include cashier’s check, personal check, or money order made payable to:
  “The Village at Nevada State Student Housing.”
• Housing payments must include the student’s first and last name, unit number, and bedspace.
• Cash payments for housing will not be accepted.
  For questions about housing charges or payments, please call (702) 992-2290.

Notices of outstanding charges due are sent to your MyNevadaState Communication Center and student email account each semester.

Here’s what you can expect with your Student Account:

• View charges for the current and previous semesters.
• Submit electronic payments using credit card, debit card, or electronic check (ACH).
• Set up an installment payment plan to manage your balance.
• View up-to-date student account balances, including pending payments.
• Confirm receipt of student account payments.
• Review the amount of your pending financial aid.
• Track financial aid disbursements and any refunds issued to you.
• Confirm processing of waivers or residency status.

To access your account, visit the Student Account Center at payments.nevadastate.edu using your MyNevadaState credentials.

Financial Aid

What should I do if I am receiving financial aid or other financial assistance that covers my charges due?

If your accepted financial aid or other assistance covers all charges due, no action is required. However, we recommend checking the details and status of your pending financial aid awards or other assistance in the Financial Aid section of your MyNevadaState Student Services Center.

What happens if my financial aid is not enough to cover all my charges?

If your financial aid is insufficient to cover all charges due, you are responsible for paying the remaining balance by the due date. You may also establish a payment plan prior to the due date and make the required payments to avoid penalties.

What happens if my financial aid exceeds my charges?

Students whose financial aid exceeds their charges will be issued a refund.

How are refunds delivered, and what are the options?

Financial aid refunds are delivered to students through BankMobile Disbursements, with options including paper check, direct deposit to an existing bank account, or opening a BankMobile Vibe Checking Account. Credit card refunds are credited to the card used to make the payment.

How can I select or update my refund preference?

Students should select or update their refund preference online at bankmobiledisbursements.com/refundchoices/

What happens to financial aid for students with housing charges?

Financial aid will be applied to housing charges after all registration fees are paid. Students can opt-out by emailing [email protected] from their student email account, in which case they will be responsible for paying the balance due to the housing office.

Past Due Accounts

What is a past due account?

A student account is considered past due after any missed payment due dates, including payment plan installments.

What happens when my student account is past due?

In accordance with Board of Regents policy, Title 4, Chapter 17, Section 2:

A student or former student having a delinquent account receivable of $200.00 or more or an overdue loan of any amount with any member institution of the Nevada System of Higher Education shall not be permitted to register at any institution. For this section, delinquent accounts receivable include tuition and registration fees, student fees, special courses fees and residence life charges billed to a student’s account in the student information system. An NSHE institution may include other fee categories as they deem appropriate in the determination of a delinquent account.

In addition, institutions may refer delinquent accounts receivable of $200.00 or more and overdue loans of any amount to a collection agency following written notification to the student or former student. Students will be responsible for paying any fees assessed by the collection agency. These fees are non-reversible and non-refundable.
