When you register for classes at USC, you are personally agreeing to be held solely responsible for all tuition and fees.
(See "Obligation For Payment" in the "Tuition and Fees" section of the "
Schedule of Classes").
Parents and others may volunteer to pay, and if they have an email address, you may have e-bill notices sent directly to their email address by setting them up as a Guest User on OASIS or USCe.pay, granting them access to your account. OASIS guest user access also allows parents to set up Payment Plans for eligible students.

United States Federal Law requires that before we discuss the details of your student account with anyone other than you, we must have on file a document commonly known as a "Buckley Waiver". You may also grant access to your online information and statements by setting guests up as Guest Users on OASIS or USCe.pay.
