As soon as your payment is completed in Backpack, your university is instantly notified — there’s no waiting on our side.
Most universities apply payments to student accounts within 1–2 business days. During busy periods (like billing deadlines or the start of term), it may take a little longer for the payment to reflect on your student balance.
Good to know:
If your payment is marked as Complete in Backpack, you’re all set. Your university considers the payment received, and your enrollment or class registration won’t be affected — even if the balance hasn’t updated yet.
