Method of Payment

To assist in the payment of educational expenses, Santa Clara University offers the following payment options:

Electronic Payments (e-checks & credit cards)
Check Payments can be processed electronically via your ecampus account.  You will need your bank’s routing number and your account number to submit an e-check payment.  Additionally, please make sure your bank supports electronic fund transfers.  At this time, checks from mutual funds, money market, lines of credit, and brokerage accounts are not accepted.

Although the University does not accept credit cards for tuition payment, as a convenience we have arranged for a third party to accept MasterCard, Discover and American Express credit cards via the web.  A service fee of 2.75% will be assessed to those payers using credit cards.

***You will need a username and password to access the on-line payment system.  If you are an Authorized Payer*, please obtain a username and password from your student.

Rights and Responsibilities

Santa Clara University considers all student tuition and loan accounts as legal and moral obligations. The Bursars office will notify the student of outstanding balances through billing statements and miscellaneous correspondence sent via mail. However, it is the student’s responsibility to maintain current address records at the Office of the Registrar at all times.

Students who defer payment without approval may be withdrawn from courses currently registered for and/or attending and subject to dismissal from the University. All unpaid balances will accrue 10% interest, per annum, on the balance remaining, from the date of default, in accordance with California State law.

Delinquent accounts may be reported to one or more of the major credit bureaus and/or forwarded to an outside collection agency or an attorney for assistance in recovering the debt owed to the University. The student is responsible for all cost incurred such as, but not limited to, accrued interest, late fees, court cost, collection costs and/or attorney’s fees. All cost of collection incurred by the University, in order to get a debt collected, must be paid in full prior to a student returning or re-enrolling at Santa Clara University. Students with prior collection accounts will be required to pre-pay all cost of tuition (including housing, meal plan, access charges and any other miscellaneous fees), in guaranteed funds, prior to registering for any courses for their duration at the University.
