Thinking about how to pay for college can be stressful. You may not know about financial aid, how to pay your bill, or you may have an unexpected financial situation that makes paying your tuition difficult. IU has many resources to help you.
IU's financial literacy program to help students make smart financial decisions.
There are several ways to pay your bursar bill. You can use a bank account, credit or debit card, foreign currency through Flywire or Globalpay for Students, Third Party Sponsors, or a payment plan.
Student Central is your main source of information for all things related to paying your bill.
If you experience unexpected financial difficulty, we may be able to help you meet your basic needs depending on the situation. We can award typically between $500 and $2,000, depending on the need and the availability of funds.
To apply, submit the form in iStart. Please complete a budget and include it.
We accept applications through the year on an on-going basis. We typically make decisions within two weeks after receiving the application. We will apply any award to your Bursar account.
Several generous alumni have donated money to set up scholarships for students who have financial need and meet the criteria defined by the donor.
We accept applications for these scholarships each spring (for awards for the following fall semester). We will send an email invitation to all students when we open applications, typically in February or March.
