Being a student at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley will be one of the most gratifying times of your college career, however, there will be a lot of financial information you will need to comprehend. It is important to remember Tuition Due Dates and make the necessary arrangements to pay for your tuition and fees on time. You may run the risk of not maintaining your classes if payment is not received. It is the student’s responsibility to know the due dates for all payments. All room and board charges are posted on UTRGV student accounts that can be viewed through my.utrgv.edu ASSIST.

*Professional school students from the School of Medicine and School of Podiatric Medicine should refer to their academic calendar payment deadlines.
We understand that students may be in the process of making payments or waiting for financial aid to be applied before the payment deadline. Please rest assured that you will not be dropped from your classes for a room and board balance, as long as you are current with your tuition charges. You should, however, make plans to pay your room and board as soon as possible to avoid delays with registration or housing applications for upcoming terms.
Installment plan
Eligible students may elect to enroll in the Institutional Payment Plan (IPP):
The IPP consists of four installments; the first one due by the initial due date and three subsequent payments due on the first day of each month after the semester has started. The IPP is available only during the fall/spring semesters. A non-refundable processing fee is applied along with the first installment and there is a late fee assessed if any payment is not received after three consecutive days (including the weekend) from the due date.
To qualify for an Institutional Payment Plan, the student:
- Must be registered for classes.
- Must be 18 years or older. If you are a minor, please contact the Bursar’s Office to complete a manual student IPP agreement form. A parent or guardian must be present to sign.
- Must not have prior term balances, including outstanding emergency loan balances.
- Must not have an active Emergency Loan for the same term requesting the IPP.
More information about the IPP can be found on the Office of the Bursar website.
All room and board charges are posted on the student UTRGV Account. Students may make payments online through ASSIST (https://mywebsis.utrgv.edu/). All payments are handled through the Student Accounting Services. Please visit the Student Accounting website for Payment options.
