Accessing Your Student Account

You can view your tuition, fees, and incidental charges, as well as sign up for direct deposit and make electronic payments, via the Student Financial Center on TigerHub. Authorized parents and guardians can access these items on the Tiger Family Hub. At the first of each month you will receive a reminder to view your account and pay outstanding charges. All new additional student accounts charges are due on the 25th of each month. Transactions are added daily, and you are encouraged to review your account often.
