Student Cellular Phone Service

MU has a multivendor contract for students to obtain a variety of wireless cellular services. This contract gives MU students the best discounts available for personal services, including voice and data plans. Given the substantial differences in coverage areas, plans and discounts, students should investigate the carriers to find which one will best suit their needs.

The current cellular providers offer service plan discounts to University students for personal cellular phones. Mention that you are a student at MU and ask for the best rate when signing up for service.

Questions on devices, service plans, or billing should be directed to the customer service number for your vendor.
