Dining dollars, or flex dollars, are additional dollars that you can spend at the 10:31 coffee shop or at The Dog House Grill.

If attritioning, dining dollars are not refundable, however, Bulldog Bucks are.

*This listing does not include all fees which may be assessed by Concordia University, Nebraska, such as course fees or books and supplies.

Course fees – Courses with fees can be found in Banner Self Service within the Class Schedule Listing, detailed class information.

Textbook Access Program Charge – This charge provides students with a low cost alternative to purchasing textbooks out of pocket. The cost will include access to all required textbooks for the semester, either in digital or physical format, which is determined by the instructor. If a student concludes that participating in the Textbook Access Program isn’t financially beneficial for their needs, they have the ability to opt-out from the program which will remove the charge following the add/drop deadline. Opting-out is a formal process requiring student action no later than the add/drop deadline. See www.cune.edu/bookstore for more information.    

Tuition and Fees Payment Due Date – Payment for tuition, fees, room and meals is due on the Monday of the second week of class. The amount due is calculated as the tuition, fees, room and meal charges minus authorized financial aid and loans that have been confirmed by the Financial Aid Office. See payment options for more information.

Payments for Fall 2025 are due by September 1, 2025
Payments for Spring 2026 are due by January 20, 2026

Late Payment Fee – A late payment fee of $375 is assessed on accounts that are not paid by the due date of each semester.

Student Accounts Hold - Failure to settle your account balance by the established due dates will result in a student accounts hold (along with a late fee) being placed on your student account. Students with a student accounts hold are unable to register for future courses or receive their diplomas.

A student accounts hold will be removed following the timeframes outlined below, once a student’s account has been paid in full or other satisfactory payment arrangements have been made. 

• Past Due Balances for all Current and Noncurrent Students – If a payment has been made after the semester due date, there is a holding period based on what type of payment is made to resolve the past due balance. Your hold will be removed based on the following timeframes:
  • If you pay by cashier’s check or cash in office, the hold will be removed at time of payment. 
  • If you pay by credit/debit card online, the hold will be removed the following business day. 
  • If you pay by checking or savings online, or by personal check, the hold will be removed after 10 business days.
• Payments that have been Attempted and Returned - If a payment has been attempted and returned to the University for any reason, successful completion of the payment must be made. There is a holding period based on what type of payment is made for future attempts. Your hold will be removed based on the following timeframes:
  • If you pay by cashier’s check or cash in office, the hold will be removed at time of payment. 
  • If you pay by credit/debit card online, the hold will be removed the following business day. 
  • If you pay by checking or savings online, or by personal check, the hold will be removed after 10 business days.

PLEASE NOTE: Student accounts holds are manually removed. Therefore, to ensure timely removal prior to registration, make sure your account is resolved by following the appropriate payment hold times outlined above, NO LATER THAN the end of business day PRIOR to your registration day.

The University’s established payment deadline is at the beginning of the semester. A monthly payment plan is a benefit offered to families that allows the balance owed to be spread over monthly payments. Therefore, if enrolled in a monthly payment plan and at any time a payment has been returned or removed from autopay, the account is considered past due and subject to the above policy which includes a late fee and registration hold. Once the plan is brought current, the registration hold will be removed. However, if any future payments within the term are again returned or removed from autopay, the University reserves the right to remove future registration until such time the account is brought current. At that time, the student may register for the upcoming term again.

Noncurrent Students who left the University with an unpaid balance, wishing to return to Concordia: If you left Concordia with a past due balance and wish to return upon paying off your past due balance, due to nonpayment/past due history, you will be required to pay your new semester balance in full prior to the first day of the term. For future terms following, balances will need to be paid by the due date for the term.
