The Payment Installment Option (PIO) is offered to all students in order to help satisfy payment requirements by the appropriate fee payment deadline.

The PIO will include all unpaid tuition and fees and housing and meal plan charges.

Before enrolling in the PIO, students will be required to read and accept terms of the plan on Cashnet.

The enrollment fee of $35 is due when signing up for the PIO through WIRED/Cashnet. The PIO enrollment fee is not refundable, regardless of when your financial aid or other payments are applied to your account.

Enrollment in PIO is not automatic. You must enroll online through WIRED. Students may pay the full installment amount due online.

PIO enrollment is available through the end of late registration deadline dates for each term. Please refer to the Academic Calendar for specific dates.

The remaining installment payments are due in four separate installments.

Students will receive a billing notification via email. Students remain responsible for the installment payments by the appropriate deadline, even if they do not receive or do not open their online invoice on WIRED or through campus email. Students who drop or withdraw from classes after the 100% drop period may have a balance due under the Payment Installment. Tuition and fees are adjusted based on the drop or withdrawal date. A refund would only be issued to the student if the newly adjusted amount of fees are less than the amount that has been paid by the student resulting in a credit balance.

Unpaid installment amounts will generate a financial hold on the Student Account. This action discontinues access to online registration for future terms, viewing/receiving grades for current or future terms, and receiving transcripts/diplomas.

The University reserves the right to deny students the privilege of using the PIO. If you have any questions regarding the PIO, please contact the Bursar's Office at (502) 597-6278.

Please note: If a check/draft or credit card used to satisfy institutional charges is returned or dishonored by your financial institution, you will be assessed a $50 returned check service charge and your registration is subject to cancellation. A returned check/draft or credit card used as payment on a PIO that is returned or dishonored nullifies the PIO agreement. The registration will be cancelled and any remaining balance will be due in full.

All payments must be made in U.S. dollars.

Personal checks are accepted for a variety of services (e.g. tuition and fees, traffic tickets, library fines, etc.). If more than two (2) checks are returned, check cashing privileges will be revoked. Upon receipt of the returned check, the issuer will be notified and informed he/she has ten (10) days to make restitution, including any related fees, to prevent any further collection activity. Restitution must be made in the form of cash, certified check, or money order.
