e·Bills and Billing Statements
Each month, billing statements are generated for all students who have outstanding balances or have activity on their student account during the month. The student system is 'frozen' beginning at 5pm on the Friday of a monthly payment due date (which may also be a Fall / Spring tuition and fee payment deadline), and statement processing begins immediately. When the statements are ready, e·Bills (email notices) are sent to all of these students and to their designated guests.
USC no longer mails paper statements to currently enrolled students. We do send e·Bills each month notifying you that a new monthly billing statement is available online. During registration periods, if you pre-register for the Fall or Spring terms, your tuition and fees for that term should be included on the statement generated the month before the start of classes.
If you are an enrolled student, it is your responsibility to check your official USC email account frequently for important messages and to make sure you do not exceed the quota on your email account. You may choose to forward to another email address provided by your academic unit or to your personal email account, however it is your responsibility to make sure that your forwarding is set up correctly.
Please note that email has been adopted as the primary mechanism for sending official communications to USC students. Students, therefore, must check email regularly in order to stay abreast of important messages and notifications. Failure to read official university communications sent to students' official USC email addresses (ending in "@usc.edu"), does not absolve students from knowing and complying with the content of official communications. For more information on the university's email policy, please refer to the "University Governance" section in SCampus at http://www.usc.edu/scampus.
