Student Financial Services Updates 

Ball State University will be providing Form 1098-Ts to all eligible students electronically by the end of January 2025. If you have any questions, please contact Student Financial Services at AskSFS@bsu.edu or visit our website at: Student Financial Services - Tax Forms .

All payments are due the first of every month. Ensure you pay at least the Minimum Amount Due on your eBill to avoid a hold that could prevent registration.
