Payment Information

To pay by e-check you will need to enter your checking or savings account number and the bank routing number. Be sure to enter information accurately.  If the e-check is returned, the payment will be reversed and a $15.00 service charge will be assessed by Transact Payments.

Please refer to the tutorial on making an electronic check online payment if you need help making an electronic check payment.

Credit card payments may only be made online and cannot be made over the phone. Domestic credit cards will incur a 2.95% fee and International credit cards will incur a 4.25% fee. The minimum service fee for card transactions will be $3.00.

Debit card payments also incur a fee so instead, please consider obtaining your bank's routing number and your checking or savings account number and pay with an e-check. There is no fee associated with an electronic check.

Flywire is a payment option for international students to pay for their tuition and fees from their home country currency. Learn more about Flywire.

Fees not paid by the initial due date are considered delinquent and will be billed and assessed finance charges each succeeding month until paid in full. Failure to make payments as agreed will result in a denial of installment credit for future terms.

The university may disclose defaulted installment payments along with other relevant information to collection agencies and/or credit bureaus. The debtor will be responsible to pay for all attorney fees and collection costs associated with the collection of any amount not paid when due.

The student's social security number may be used for identification purposes for any and all necessary and usual billing and collection efforts including disclosure to:

• Federal, state or local agencies.
• Private parties such as relatives, present and former employers and business and personal associates.
• Guarantee agencies.
• Educational and financial institutions.
• Credit bureaus, collection agencies and agency contractors.

Social security numbers are used to verify identity, determine program eligibility and benefits, permit servicing or collecting of the debt, enforce the conditions or terms of the debt, counsel in repayment efforts, investigate possible fraud and to verify compliance with any relevant program regulation and/or locate the student in the event the debt becomes delinquent.

A finance charge will be assessed at an annual percentage rate of 15% (1.25% monthly). It will be calculated on the unpaid balance and will be added to each bill. The unpaid balance is calculated by taking the previous balance and subtracting payments and credits received. To avoid all finance charges, the account must be paid in full by the initial due date of the term. Financial aid must be credited to your account, not in pending status, by the due date to avoid finance charges. 

If you have financial aid that has not been disbursed or "credited" to your billing account, then you have "pending financial aid." Pending financial aid is subtracted from your balance due to calculate the anticipated balance on your eSIS billing statement. Pending aid is not considered a payment, it must be disbursed or applied to the account to be considered a payment 

To check whether you have pending aid, please refer to the Billing Statement and Pending Aid tutorial or your Billing Statement on eSIS. If your aid does not disburse when anticipated, contact Financial Aid at 715-425-3141 or finaid@uwrf.edu. 

Finance charges are assessed at 1.25% per month calculated on the unpaid balance after the initial due date.

All financial aid awards must be disbursed to the account by the first due date to avoid finance charges. It is your responsibility to complete all financial aid requirements and monitor the status of your anticipated aid. Financial aid can sometimes take longer than expected and families should be prepared to start as early as possible to avoid finance charges. Finance fees are not waived because a student has signed up for financial aid, but it has not dispersed to the account. Contact Financial Aid if your aid does not disburse when anticipated at finaid@uwrf.edu or 715-425-3141.

If you are enrolled in a Transact Payment Plan, finance charges are not assessed. 

The use of the Transact Payment Plan does not imply that a student can withdraw from school and thereby be excused from the remaining payments for the term. This plan merely defers portions of the fees to be paid later in the term. If a student withdraws after the refund period ends, fees must be paid in full. Refer to the schedule for refund periods.
