Employees may have a Banner account for charges such as tuition & fees, health center charges, and other miscellaneous fees. All employees are responsible for paying balances on their account by the due date. Account balances that are 30 days past due or greater, are subject to the assessment of service charges at 1.5% monthly (18% annually) on approximately the 15th of each month. Service charges will continue to assess monthly on any past due balance until the account is current.
The use of an employee account is a privilege. All payments need to be made when due.
Posting charges
Some departments have been given authorization to post their own departmental charges. Please call AR at (269)387-4224 to inquire about approval for posting charges to Banner and procedures for posting these charges.
