Columbia Financial Aid and Educational Financing

Bill Estimator

Home / Payment Options / Bill Estimator Tool / Bill Estimator

The Bill Estimator tool is intended to assist with your financial planning for the year, and it does not reflect the final Columbia bill, which may also include other charges (e.g. course fees, Flex charges, a prior year balance, etc.).

Student Financial Services expects to email the first Fall term E-Bill on August 14 and it is due on September 22. Please see their website for the billing schedule.

The E-Bill represents your account activity as of the day the bill is generated. After this date, you can view your current student account activity using SSOL. You will need to log into SSOL, click on ‘Account’ and then click on ‘View Student Account Detail By Term’. The most up-to-date calculation of your balance due will be listed at the bottom of the page.
