Undergraduate Billing Information and Costs Chart
Billing Schedule
Emerson College bills students for tuition on a semester basis.
- Fall semester bills are sent in early June, due August 3.
- Spring semester bills are sent in December, due January 4.
If you do not register for a semester, you will receive an estimated billing statement. This bill assumes you will register for 16 credits and lists charges accordingly. If you register for more or less than 16 credits your final amount due may change.
Students with outstanding balances after initial billing process will receive e-mail notifications, sent to their Emerson e-mail accounts, until their balances are paid in full. For additional information please see Financial Policies.
