Pay Tuition and Health Insurance by the Deadline

F-1 and J-1 students are automatically enrolled in health insurance and payment is due at the same time as tuition. Regardless of the source of your financial support, you are responsible for ensuring that your tuition is paid by the deadline. If not, your enrollment may be cancelled and you may lose your legal status in the U.S. A general schedule of payments can be found at: http://studentaccounts.gmu.edu/.

You may pay online at: https://patriotweb.gmu.edu/ or at the GMU Cashier's Office, SUB I, room 1501.
