E-Check Payments
E-Check payments can now be made with NO CONVENIENCE FEE. You can use a valid checking or savings account from any recognized financial institution in the USA to pay your student account charges. First, check with your bank to make sure they accept electronic debits from the account you choose and to determine if your bank will charge you any fees for this service. Each time you initiate a transaction, you authorize us to draw an automated clearing house (ACH) debit in your name on your bank account. This amount will be payable to us in the amount of the transaction and be deemed as a payment to us. We will present this ACH transaction to your bank for immediate payment.
Pay by e-check using the Summary of Account-Make a Payment.
Credit Card Payments
As a convenience, student accounts can be settled using MasterCard, Visa, Discover or American Express.
Effective July 2, 2012, the University of Louisville will be assessing a flat convenience fee of $25.00 for each credit card transaction. Due to changes with our Credit Card Service provider and to be able to continue accepting VISA as a credit card payment option, we were required to implement a flat convenience fee of $25.00 for each credit card transaction processed.
The $25.00 Convenience Fee per transaction will be displayed for your confirmation prior to completing your credit card payment.

Why is there a fee for paying student account charges with a credit card?
The cost of providing the option to pay student account charges by credit card has increased significantly. The direct cost of service is passed on to the university from the credit card companies and is the cost of doing business via the Internet. The university does not make money from the assignment of credit card convenience fees. Students may avoid the fee by selecting one of the other payment options available. The university has other payment alternatives, such as e-check and payment plans, which makes payment less costly than using credit cards.
Terms and Conditions of Use
Credit cards (MasterCard, Visa, Discover or American Express) may be used to pay student account charges. There is a convenience fee* charged for this automated service. In order to remain compliant with the security requirements of our credit card merchant agreement, we are unable to process any credit card payment via telephone or in person. *Credit card convenience fees cannot be refunded as these funds go directly to an outside service provider.
Refund Procedures
If a credit card is used to pay student account charges, any resulting credit balance will be returned to the credit card that caused the overpayment.
