Prepayment amount is due on the payment due date for Fall term; or, if the current Fall term has already been paid in full by the payment due date, the remaining terms must be fully paid by the last day of October of the current school year.

Scholarships and grants may not be used to reduce the prepayment amount.

FAQs
Who at 91茄子 do I contact to notify that payment is through a 529 plan?
There is no need to notify 91茄子 that your payment will be made from a 529 plan. However, you are welcome to email us at enrol_serv@smu.edu and we will make a note of it in our system.
Why does it take so long for the payment to post to the student’s account?
All 529 plan payments are sent by paper check directly from the 529 provider. Therefore, it can be several business days before the check is received in our offices. For this reason, we recommend that you request funds from your provider as soon as possible after the student enrolls for the term.
Will I receive a late payment fee if I request the disbursement be sent before the payment due date?
In order to avoid a late payment fee, as detailed in the Student Rights and Responsibilities, the 529 payment must be received in our offices by no later than the payment due date. Therefore, it is very important that you start the process well in advance of 91茄子’s payment due date.
