Payment of Tuition & Fees
Due Date for Payment
Bills will be made available through Transact for all registered students approximately four weeks prior to the start of each semester. Accounts must be settled by the student by the due date, which is approximately three weeks prior to the semester start. A settled account is defined as total payments covering all current charges on the student statement. Total payment includes
- payments by ACH, check, credit card, or cash;
- Georgian Court institutional grants and scholarships awarded to the student;
- student loans approved by the lender, certified by the University and accepted by the student;
- federal or state grant or scholarship aid as approved by the Georgian Court Office of Financial Aid; and
- expected payments through enrollment in our monthly payment plan.
Charges not paid by the due date are subject to a late fee, which is assessed at a rate of 1% monthly on the open balance. Failure to resolve the semester balance due by the published deadline will result in a past due hold placed on the account preventing future registration, barring various services, and receiving a paper or digital copy of the diploma upon graduation until all account balances have been paid.
Ultimately, upon separation from Georgian Court University, any unpaid balance will be referred to a third party for collection efforts. Collection agency and/or legal fees may be added to the balance owed, which the student will be responsible for paying. We urge the student to frequently check their account in their Self-Service portal to ensure the balance is current.
Payment Methods
Payment can be made via Transact or directly to the Office of Student Accounts. Online payments through Transact can be made via ACH from a bank account at no cost. Credit/debit card payments can only be made online. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. Credit/debit card payments incur a nonrefundable fee of 2.95% of the payment amount. Payments in the form of cash, check, or money order may be made during posted office hours in Scully Registration and Finance Center. Checks should be made payable to Georgian Court University and include the student ID number.
Tuition Payment Plan
The university offers an online monthly installment plan through Transact. There is a $55.00 enrollment fee each semester in which the student or family enrolls, without interest interest charges. Please note that students must enroll each semester to participate in the payment plan. Enrollment opens when bills are published and ends at the conclusion of the add/drop period.
Wire Transfers
We accept wire transfers through Flywire. To originate payments from a 529 plan or from a bank in your home country go to https://flywire.com/pay/georgian.
3rd Party Payments
Employer Tuition Assistance
You must submit a letter on company letterhead confirming your eligibility as well as the company's payment policy by the payment due date of every semester. Your portion of the payment is due by the payment due date.
Employer Tuition Reimbursement
You must pay your balance in full or be enrolled in our payment plan by the payment due date. Your employer will pay their share of your tuition directly to you. Once your account is paid in full, you can e-mail Student Accounts to request an invoice to submit for reimbursement.
