U.S. Treasury Notes are a type of medium-term marketable security of 2 to 10 years. Notes come in 2, 5, and 10-Year maturities and are fixed-principal securities. After purchase, interest payments are paid to your selected payment destination every six months until final maturity, when the principal is paid. The interest rate is determined at the time of auction. Minimum purchase is $1,000 with multiples sold in the same increment.

You can buy Treasury bills, notes, bonds, or TIPS at one of the auctions we conduct, or in the securities market. If you want to buy a Treasury security at an auction, contact the U.S. Treasury, a Federal Reserve Bank, a financial institution, or a government securities broker or dealer.

The maximum amount for a noncompetitive purchase is $5 million in a single auction.

Each Treasury bill, note, bond, or TIPS is sold at a Treasury auction. In these auctions, all successful bidders are awarded securities at the same price, which is the price equal to the highest rate or yield of the competitive bids we accept.

Our current accounting system produces the Public Debt Outstanding amount each morning around 11:30 A.M. ET.

We DO NOT provide medical excuse notes, or written documentation for class. It is our belief that students and faculty will almost always be able to sort this out by themselves.

A note-taker is usually another student in class who agrees to provide copies of lecture notes taken during class. Some students with disabilities may require a note taker as a reasonable accommodation. The note-taker may pick up carbonless note-taker paper, available at no charge, in ODS.
