Emerson College student account questions
What happens if I have an unpaid balance at Emerson?
Students with unresolved balances are deregistered after the billing deadline (fall: Aug 2, spring: Dec 15). A finance charge of 1.5% per month, compounded monthly, is assessed on past-due accounts. Transcripts are withheld for past-due former students. If you leave Emerson with an open balance, the debt is sent to ECSI with 3 months to pay; after that it may be referred to Williams and Fudge or Windham collection agencies and reported to credit bureaus. Contact the Office of Student Accounts: bills@emerson.edu or 617-824-8655.
Does Emerson offer a tuition payment plan, and what does it cost?
Yes. Emerson offers a semester payment plan through TouchNet on the myEmerson portal (Duo MFA required to log in). There is a $50 non-refundable enrollment fee per semester. You can split your bill into 4 or 5 monthly payments at no interest. A $10 late fee is assessed if a payment is 15 or more days past due. Log in at my.emerson.edu to enroll.
Where can I check my account balance and any holds at Emerson?
Log in to MyEmerson at my.emerson.edu with your Emerson credentials and Duo MFA. From the portal you can view your billing statements, account balance, financial aid, holds, schedule, and grades. You can also access the TouchNet payment portal directly from there to make a payment or enroll in a payment plan.
What is Emerson's tuition refund policy if I withdraw from classes?
For a full-term withdrawal, Emerson refunds tuition on a sliding scale: weeks 1-2 receive an 80% refund, week 3 gets 60%, week 4 gets 40%, week 5 gets 20%, and after week 5 there is no refund. You must officially file a withdrawal or Leave of Absence (LOA) with the Office of the Registrar — non-attendance alone does not count as a withdrawal. Federal Title IV (R2T4) rules apply separately for the first 60% of the payment period.
