"Registration Date" refers to when your student registers for classes. They will receive an email letting them know their electronic invoice (eBill) is ready to view, based on that registration date – typically during Destination Kent State (DKS), New Student Orientation. Your student should check their @kent.edu email for steps on how to access the eBill. Authorized Users will also receive an eBill notification.
