Credit Card Payments

Credit card payments can be processed through the ©Flywire (MasterCard, VISA, Discover, or American Express cards are accepted). If you choose this option, you can login to the WISER self-services account then go to "Student Financial Center" and select "Payment options". You will be taken to a secure site operated by ©Flywire to process your payment.

When you use ©Flywire to make a payment, ©Flywire will add a non-refundable fee as a "Service Charge".  You will be informed the amount of the non-refundable service charge prior to the completion of your transaction. Service Charges are paid to ©Flywire. 

Important: The non-refundable service fee will also apply to debit card payments processed through ©Flywire.

E-check Payments - Automated Clearing House (ACH) Transactions

Tuition and fees can be paid online by e-check from your checking or savings account through ©Flywire. This type of payment results in an electronic debit of your bank account. Bank information like routing number, account number and account holder name are required to complete an ACH payment. If you choose this option, you can login to the WISER self-services account then go to "Student Financial Center" and select "Payment options" link. You will be taken to a secure site operated by ©Flywire to process your payment.   ACH payments are not subject to the service fee. 

*Before making an Automated Clearing House transaction (ACH payment), please verify your account information and that your bank allows electronic debiting of your account.  Online payments made with incorrect bank routing number or bank account number will not be recognized by your financial institution, and the payment will "bounce" within one to five business days.  

Important:

• Payment made online cannot be cancelled or stopped once they are submitted.
• All payments are subject to verification and could delay the removal of the Administrative Hold. Please arrange your online payment accordingly.
• When the ACH payments were rejected / returned in the past, the financial hold cannot be removed till the payments have been verified in 7 calendar days.
• Return fee will be applied to the student's account if ACH payment is returned by the bank, and you may be unable to process future ACH payments through WISER or ©Flywire.
