Bills and Payment Plans
When your student account is activated, you must make arrangements to take care of your bill. To generate your bill, you must have already met with your advisor and registered for classes. You will need your RamID (network login) to login to the Banner system. There, you can view your account, check your financial aid awards, and understand what amount you will need to arrange to pay.
After accepting any financial aid awards, you can cover the difference in a number of ways, including the RamPay payment plan.
