Learn how to read your account balance.
Reading your account balance and finding out how much you need to pay can be confusing. This short video walks you through where to find your balance, how to read the charges and payments and how to confirm the amount owing.
How to read your account summary
Your account summary is where you find out how much you owe for the term.
- Log into your MyMRU account

- Description - An explanation of transactions applied to your account.

- Payments - The amount you have paid to your account - tuition, mandatory fees, deposits, and/or scholarships and requested loan funds.
