Tuition and Fees Payment

Bemidji State University assesses fees to all students to facilitate the operation of student support services and offices which are not funded by a student’s tuition. Student fees are listed individually in a student’s e-Services account, accessible via MyBSU.

Since the services funded by these fees are available to the general student body, they are mandatory for all students.

Tuition — which includes tuition differentials for certain programs — generally supports educational costs pertaining to academic learning and teaching, such as academic building maintenance, classroom facilities, course materials, teacher salaries, college staff, university administration and the library and its databases. There are some specialized fees that are assigned to specific programs and courses, however, which are not meant to cover all students. When these specialized fees apply to you, they will be reflected on your e-Services invoices as Personal Property Fee, depending on the type of charge approved for that course.

Whether you’re paying in full or need to set up a payment plan, these resources can help you navigate the tuition and fees payment process.
