PAYMENTS

Complete payment of all charges (tuition, fees, housing, etc.) is due by the first day of class for the fall and spring semesters. Summer courses are due by the first day of class. Students who will be receiving enough financial aid to cover their balance should contact the Business Office to review current charges and estimated financial aid to confirm this status.

Students selecting to pay in full may make their payment in advance by mail (check) or in person at the Business Office (cash or check). Credit card payments (Mastercard, Discover, or American Express) can only be made online and includes a convenience fee. Please note, Visa cards are not accepted. A no-fee online option is available to students for making an ACH (checking or savings) payment.

To make a payment online, visit www.lewisu.edu and select “CURRENT STUDENTS” to view the “MAKE ONLINE PAYMENTS” link.

Students are not required to visit the Business Office on residence hall move-in day. Payment arrangements may be made prior to move-in online or by mail. A list of registered students will be shared with Residence Life to confirm students’ enrollment status for move-in. Students are not required to visit the Business Office for written or verbal approval if registered for classes.

If full payment is not made by the first day of classes, students will be assigned to a payment plan and assessed a $75 fee

PAYMENT PLANS

Download Brochure

Lewis University offers a monthly payment plan through Sallie Mae TuitionPay Plan for students who cannot pay their bills in full by the first day of class.

This option allows students to manage their charges with an interest-free monthly payment.

Students work directly with Sallie Mae TuitionPay to sign up and establish monthly payments based on their bill and estimated financial aid.

This convenient online option also allows for parents, guardians, or others to be identified as the primary payer.

This person will then have access to view the payment plan arrangement and make subsequent payments. Other benefits of the Sallie Mae TuitionPay Plan include the option for automatic payments and a toll-free number for the student payment plan center.

Each semester that a payment plan is needed, students must enroll online at tuitionpay.salliemae.com; enrollment is not automatic and must be student initiated. A $75 semester fee is charged for use of a payment plan; late payments will be assessed an additional $30 monthly fee.

Students are able to sign up for a payment plan and make subsequent payments completely online as of Fall 2008. Resident students are no longer required to visit the Business Office prior to moving on campus.
