Payment may be made using one of the following options:

• Cash
• Check
• Credit Card (MasterCard, Visa, Discover, American Express)
• Confirmed Financial Aid
  • Aid has been accepted, promissory notes signed, and all other requirements have been satisfied

When confirming attendance, Title IV aid recipients must authorize SUNY Oswego to use their Title IV Financial Aid (PELL, Stafford Loans, SEOG, Perkins) to pay all non-institutional charges in addition to tuition, institutional fees, room, and board. Non-institutional charges include:

• College Store
• Parking fee
• Student Association fee
• Alumni fee
• Arts fee

• Payment plans are available for fall and spring semesters only, not summer.
• SUNY Oswego offers students the opportunity to pay each semester’s tuition bill in installments. Students must apply for the plan each semester and a $25 non-refundable application fee is charged for this payment option. The student will not be enrolled until the initial payment is made. The payment period for fall is August-December and for spring is January-May. Initial payments must be made by the payment due date on the tuition bill. To figure payment amount, add $25 application fee to the balance due and divide by 5. The payment due date is the 15th of each month. Any payment received after the monthly due date will incur a late payment fee of up to $50. All returned checks are subject to SUNY Oswego returned check policy.
• No formal payment plan is offered for Winter. Enrolled students must pay at 1/3 of the total balance before the due date. The remaining balance must be paid in full by final class date.
