Faqs


  1. Will I receive a bill?

    2. Whether or not you receive a bill is determined by the timing of and method of your registration. Please follow web scheduling instructions regarding obtaining your account balance and information regarding payment responsibilities. You are responsible for paying by the deadlines which exist for your term of enrollment. Please be aware that you can view your account balance at any time via the web at: http://MyISU.indstate.edu.


  2. Where will billing statements and refund checks be mailed?

    3. All billing statements will be mailed to the student's mailing address, as maintained in the Office of Registration and Records, in the student's name. Local addresses will be utilized when a country other than the United States is reflected in the mailing address. Refund checks will also be mailed to the mailing address unless you have signed up for direct deposit for student refunds. In some cases, you may still receive a paper check even after you have signed up for direct deposit. The University reserves the right to provide the refund in the form of a paper check when necessary. You can sign up for direct deposit on the MyISU Portal in the "Finance" area under "Direct Deposit for Accounts Payable and Student Refunds".


  3. Where do I change my mailing address?

    4. It is each student's responsibility to keep his or her mailing address correct. Mailing addresses can be changed in the Office of Registration and Records or via the web at http://MyISU.indstate.edu.


  4. What should I do if I have questions about my account?

  5. What if a credit I am expecting does not appear on my bill?

    6. Do not ignore your bill and wait for an adjusted bill if the one you receive does not reflect a credit you are expecting. New bills are not necessarily printed before the next due date. If the anticipated credit is not received by the due date, you may be required to pay the total due and be reimbursed when the anticipated credit is received.
