Cashier's office FAQ

The Cashier's Office will send notices of new student statements to the preferred e-mail address listed in your MyNEVADA account. Make sure that you add cashiersoffice@unr.edu to your safe sender list to ensure that you receive these e-mails.  You can view your statements any time in your student center by navigating to the "Communication Center" on the right side of the screen.

The due dates will be posted in your MyNEVADA account. Fees are due three (3) days prior to the start of each semester.

• Payment in Full: You may pay your account in full by electronic check or credit card through MyNEVADA. Credit cards accepted are Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express. Once your payment has been successfully completed, a receipt will be sent to your preferred e-mail address. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept any payments by telephone.
• Payment Plan: If your balance due is more than $500, you may enroll in a tuition and/or housing payment plan to make your payment in three equal installments. The first installment is due on the fee due date, as listed in the Academic Calendar. The next installment is due one month later, with the final installment due one month after that. If you are using the payment plan for tuition or tuition and housing, the $50 payment plan fee will be added to your first payment. If you are using the payment plan for housing only, the $50 fee will be added to your second payment.
  • The Student Health Center Fee, Counseling Center Fee, Electronic Course Materials, and Insurance is not eligible for deferment. These will be due with the first installment payment.

You will be able to sign up for the Payment Plan for Tuition and Fees and/or Housing through MyNEVADA.
