It'll show up, you just have to wait. You pay it off the same way you paid off your tuition.

It takes a little while to update on MUGSI, it's not automatic. If you already know the amount that you owe you can pay that amount immediately into your student account and it will go into a negative balance. When the book charges are added to your account, it will just take from the negative balance and go back to zero.

hope this helps!!!
How can I check my account balance?
Account balance can be checked on MUGSI. We encourage you to check your account regularly. No statements are mailed to you.
How do I pay my student account off?
First you must log onto MUGSI to get your account balance. You can then pay off your student charge account at any check out in any Bookstore location, or at the Student Financial Office in Gilmour Hall Room 209.
Payment is acknowledged as of the date the university receives payment, not by the date it was sent. Accounts must be paid off in full by the end of the academic session.
By regulation of the Board of Governors, the University may withhold transcripts, certificates and diplomas until a student's fees, Bookstore account, as well as other accounts owed to the University are paid in full. Students withdrawing from the University are required to settle their accounts before leaving.

You can use your Student Card as a credit card and have it charged to your account and it'll deduct the extra money. You can also get a cheque from Accounts and Cashiers in Gilmour Hall.
