Student Accounts and Billing

As part of our educational program, we are available to help students understand the financial responsibilities of their Student Account.

All charges, including tuition, housing, meals, bookstore and other charges placed by various departments on campus are placed on what we call your Student Account. The student account is simply our record of student’s charges and payment to the college.

Pay Your Bill

Payments can be made to your Student Account in a variety of ways:

  1. Make credit & debit payments, or set up a payment plan online through TouchNet at secure.touchnet.net:443/C20051_tsa/web. Use your SNCSIS login and PIN for access.
  2. Mail a check to; Sierra Nevada University, Attn: Student Accounts, 999 Tahoe Blvd, Incline Village, NV, 89451.
  3. Make cash and check payments in-person at the above address in David Hall Building.

Student Account FAQ’s

When do I have to pay tuition etc.?

  • Tuition is due August 1st for fall semester, January 1st for spring semester, and May 1st for summer semester, regardless of when your courses begin.

    It is also policy to charge interest on student account balances after the due date. As a courtesy, interest will not be assessed at the end of the first month but will be charged mid-month beginning the 2nd month of the term at a rate of 2% per month. When reviewing your student account, we take into consideration current pre-approved payment arrangements and financial aid.

How can I check my balance?

  • Your account is accessible 24/7 on SNCSIS. Your username is your student number and your password starts out as your six digit birth date. Please contact the registrar’s office if you need assistance logging into your SNCSIS.

How do I pay?

  • We accept cash, checks, ACH trabsfers, and major credit cards. Online payments are made through TouchNet at secure.touchnet.net:443/C20051_tsa/web using the same login ID and pin as your SNCSIS account. We also can provide you with the instructions on arranging wire transfers from your bank to ours.

What is TouchNet?
