Student Account Refunds

We have a new provider starting with the Summer 2024 semester that will be handling student account refunds.  We will no longer be utilizing Bankmobile after May 31^st, 2024.  Please enable your banking preferences with our new provider by logging into your MyCrowder Account, “Finances” tab, “My Student Account”, and then select “Student Account Refunds” under the payment portal box. From there you can scroll down to where it says “Sign up for Direct Deposit Refunds” or you can navigate to the “My Account” tab on the left and select “direct deposit refunds” there. This will pop-up steps on the right side of the screen to complete your refund setup.

Payment Plans

Payment Plans are available (starting April 1^st) through our new vendor Transact.  To setup a payment plan or make a payment, login to MyCrowder, “Finances” tab, “My Student Account”, and then select “Make a payment / Payment Plan” under the payment portal box.

Account Balances: Spring 2024 

Please note if you currently owe for the Spring 2024 Semester, you can either setup a payment plan starting April 1^st or you can pay your remaining balance in full in order to enroll in the Summer/Fall 2024 semesters. If you anticipate receiving an A+ scholarship, please remember that they will only pay at the end of the semester, however, we ask that you please make arrangements to cover the student portion that will remain by either paying your portion through MyCrowder or if you are unsure of your portion, it can be obtained by contacting the cashier's office at 417-455-5598 or 417-455-5402.
