OPEN students pay the same undergraduate credit hour and mandatory fees as regular students, except for the Student Health Fee, which is waived. Credit hour fees are assessed based upon the student’s residence classification, school, and class standing.
Please refer to Student Central for current undergraduate credit hour fees and mandatory fees.
Course-related fees are assessed in addition to credit hour and mandatory fees. Special fees apply to courses including, but not limited to, film, fine arts, labs, music performance study, and studios.
Please refer to Student Central for fee amounts.
Indiana University generates electronic bills for bursar account activity. All students are provided with an IU email account, and e-mail notification will be sent to their IU e-mail account when the monthly bill is available online. Students may also view and print copies of their billing statement, as well as process electronic payments from the secure site.
Students may establish access for parents and other third parties to view current account balance information, view statements and process payments. Once access is created, authorized payers may also elect to have e-mail notifications sent when new bursar statements are generated. Please refer to Student Central for additional details.
Based on the student's registration and any other debts owed to Indiana University, an electronic statement will be generated monthly. Students will be notified via their IU email account to check their ONE.IU.EDU account for more specific billing information. Payment will be due approximately 2 weeks later, on the 10th of the month.
Please contact Student Central if you do not receive a bill or if you have a question about your bill. Failure to receive the e-mail notification will not be accepted as a reason for missing the payment deadline, and your account will be assessed monthly late payment fees until the balance is paid.
Tuition benefit for dependent children of IU employees
Dependent children of full-time IU faculty and staff may be entitled to a tuition benefit consisting of one-half the resident undergraduate tuition rate. Although OPEN Program students are exempt from the student health fee, all other fees are assessed at 100% the undergraduate rate.
A new application form should be completed each term the OPEN Program student wishes to enroll in IUB classes, and should be submitted as soon as the student receives their 10-digit UID. The student's bursar account statement will reflect that tuition benefit credit has been applied. If overpayment has been made, a refund will be issued by the bursar.
Go to IU Human Resources for benefit details and application forms.
