Open the school website and you can see that there are six main ways for full-time students to pay:
1. E-check
Features: the fastest and most convenient.
Methods: Log in to the student system ("Islamic State" self-service) and pay:
Pay online or view your student account.
Premise: apply for an American bank card.
Tips: It is also very simple for students to apply for American bank cards. You can go to bigger banks, such as Bank of America and Citibank. When you go to the counter, you can bring your classmate's passport, I-20 issued by the school, money to deposit and lease for renting a house.
Step 2 check by mail
Method: The bank will write a check and mail it to the school.
Note: the account name and student information should be correct. Tuition and fees should be paid to the university by cheque, including your ID number.
The mailing address is correct (please refer to the school official website for the specific address).
3. Cash payment
Method: Pay by cash or check in the office designated by the school during school hours.
From 8: 30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. from Monday to Friday, pay by cash or check at the university location:
Generally, international students can't take more than $654.38+0 million in cash when going abroad. You still need to withdraw money in the United States when you pay tuition. One is inconvenient, and the other is high cash withdrawal cost. Students are not advised to pay in cash.
pay by Installments
Features: reducing students' pressure and paying by installments.
Methods: Contact the Tuition Management System (TMS).
Note: confirm the fees to be paid in advance, and charge a registration fee of $65 per year. Students in full-time programs should choose the annual plan.
5. Employment contract
This method is usually paid by the employer for all or part of the students' expenses, which is not applicable to most students.
6.telegraphic transfer
Features: T/T can be conducted in major domestic banks, with low handling fee, generally not exceeding 400 yuan, which is convenient, fast and safe. However, it is worth noting that after paying the handling fee in China, there may be a handling fee at the receiving bank, so it is best for students to wire a little more than the amount of the school.
Method: the bank will handle it, provided that the school account number and SWIFT code are confirmed.
Note: the school system will reply one working day after the wire transfer (note that it is a working day). Please check it in time after the remittance.
For example, information provided by universities:
Payee Name
Payee's bank and address
Account number of payee's bank in its correspondent bank.
Payee account number
International remittance code
current account
Transportation/route /ABA #
Account number
Swift code
Chip ABA #
When P.S. schools notify to pay tuition fees, they usually give the deadline. If you pass this time, you will have to pay a fine. If it is really difficult to pay tuition objectively, you can ask the school to strive for exemption from fines.
Summary: For most freshmen, the most reliable and convenient way provided by the school to students should be to pay tuition by telegraphic transfer. In addition, after students are familiar with the situation in the United States, they also open local bank accounts, so that parents can remit money directly from domestic banks to your account, and students can pay living expenses and tuition fees.
