Other Fee Information

Delivery Fees

Some ISU departments and colleges charge a delivery fee in addition to tuition. Delivery fees support the additional people and infrastructure for some distance education programs. Applicable fees are listed with the course section in the online schedule of classes.

Activity, Services, Building & Recreation fee

This fee allows you to purchase tickets to certain Iowa State cultural and athletic events at student prices and use recreational and other services on campus. Students exclusively enrolled in distance education courses (sections beginning with X) may elect to pay this fee; however, this fee is mandatory for students enrolled in any on-campus courses. For more information on the activity and services fee please visit the Office of Registrar's Tuition and Fees page.

Payment

Iowa State University does not mail bills for tuition and fees to currently enrolled students. Instead, a message is sent to your university e-mail address notifying you when your bill is available on AccessPlus. See getting your e-mail and additional information about AccessPlus.
