Student Accounts FAQ

You can pay:

• In-Person: cash, check, money order or cashiers check.
• By mail: check, money order, or cashier's check.

Online Options:

• E-check: online check processing
  • There is no processing fee for this method of payment and it must be done through MyKU only - if returned for any reason - you will be assessed a Returned Deposited Item fee (enter #'s carefully).
• Credit card: Visa, MasterCard, Amex, or Discover.
  • Credit card payments must be made online via MyKU - not in person or over the phone.
    
    • NOTE: ALL credit card charges for tuition, housing, and mandatory fees are assessed a 2.85% processing fee or a minimum $3.00—whichever is greater. 
    • This fee is NOT retained by Kutztown University and is non-refundable.

• If your account is at the Attorney General's Office for collections OR at one of our partnered collection agencies, your payments should be made directly to them.  If you choose to pay KU directly - you must tell us so that we can notify the agency.  Hold release times depend on your method of payment and may take up to 30-45 days for the payment to be cleared and hold removed.  Please contact us if you have an urgent need for the hold to be removed before you make payment.

Kutztown University accepts E-check payments in MyKU only. This is a debit from your checking or savings account.Thisis the most popular and safe payment method we offer online.

There is no fee to process an Echeck payment however if the payment is returned for any reason, there will be a returned deposited item fee assessed.

If you wish to pay by E-check from your own checking or savings account, you will need your banking information, including bank account number, and ABA Routing number.

You will need to know if it is a checking or savings account.

For non-traditional bank accounts, such as money markets, credit lines, and others, we encourage you to check with your banking institution to see how these should be processed. Choosing Savings or Checking incorrectly can cause the payment to be refused and a returned deposited item fee to be applied to the account.

This payment option works for US bank accounts only.  To use a foreign bank and foreign currency please go to Flywire and initiate payment there.

ANY changes to your schedule MAY impact the aid you have been awarded or even received. If changes are made after the aid has posted or disbursed, we may be obligated to return a portion or all of your aid based on your change.  This would include the need for the student to return any refunds previously released as well.

Attendance verification may also cause aid to be reduced if you are not attending classes.

For this reason, we highly encourage any student making changes or withdrawals to check with the Financial Aid office to discuss their aid situation first.
