Personal Checks/Money Orders

If mailing in a personal check or money order please make the check payable to UT Southern and include the student’s full name or student ID number in the memo line.

Note: Please mail the check so it arrives before the payment deadline for the term.

529 Payments

Funds from a 529 college savings plan are requested by the account holder. Please make sure the payment is requested in time to arrive before the payment deadline for the term. If the payment is being sent directly to UTS, please use the mailing address above.

Scholarship Checks and Third Party Payments

Scholarship checks may be mailed or brought to the office. The scholarship check should be made payable to UT Southern and mailed to the address above. The student’s information should be included either on the check or on any attached documentation with the check. If the scholarship check is made payable to the student’s name, the student must endorse the back of the check when it is presented to the Bursar’s office.

How Scholarships are Applied

The UTS Bursar’s office must follow any instructions sent with the scholarship check and apply the funds in the manor described in the letter. If no instructions are sent with the check, UTS policy is to apply one-half the amount to the current semester and the remaining one-half to the following semester.

For example, a $1000 scholarship check received would have $500 applied to the Fall 2022 semester and $500 applied to the Spring 2023 semester if no instructions were provided.

Out of State Tuition Plans/PACT Programs/Employer Tuition Programs

If you or your student participates in a tuition program that requires UTS to send an invoice to the organization, please let us know as soon as possible to allow time for processing. Processing time differs across the board, but it can take between 2-4 weeks for payment to be sent to UTS. In some cases, we may ask that the student pay their balance up front, and then the student can be reimbursed after UTS receives payment from the organization.
