2018-19 Undergraduate Academic Catalog | College Costs

Payment Procedure

Students may make cash or check payments on their accounts in person at the Cashier's Window. Personal checks may be mailed to the Office of Student Accounts and must include the student's ID number. If omitted, the number may be written on the check by College staff. Checks should be made payable to Roberts Wesleyan College.  Payments may also be made by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) through our online payment center (http://www.roberts.edu/payment).

Students who have been awarded scholarships, loans, or other grants from agencies outside the College, who do not have the funds in hand by the due date indicated on the statement, must present documentation from the agency from whom payment will be received. In the absence of such documentation, payment will be expected from the student while they await the agency payment. If no payment is made to cover the undocumented scholarships, loans, or grants, a late fee may be assessed.

If a balance is still owed on a previous semester when registering for the next semester, the student’s registration may be held or voided until payment is received.

Canadian Students (prior to Fall 2015)

Roberts Wesleyan College (RWC) accepts Canadian checks at full face value for those starting before fall 2015, according to the following guidelines:

1. This policy applies only to Canadian students currently enrolled at RWC as full-time traditional undergraduate students during the fall and spring semesters only.

2. Canadian checks (no cash or credit cards) may be used at full face value to pay tuition, fees, dormitory room and board charges only. This excludes non dormitory housing, bookstore, trips, summer school, and all other charges.

3. Payments by Canadian checks must be received by the due date on the bill for the fall and spring semesters. All outstanding balances after the due date will be due in US dollars only. Outside scholarships and Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) funds will still be accepted in Canadian funds if received after the due date. (OSAP's web site is: http//osap.gov.on.ca.)

4. Canadian checks are accepted at full face value ($1.00 Canadian = $1.00 US for students who started prior to fall 2015), provided that the Canadian dollar is worth at least $.65 US. If the Canadian dollar falls below $.65 US, RWC will use the $.65 US rate to calculate the payment due.

5. Roberts Wesleyan College reserves the right to change this policy at any time without previous warning.

International Students

International students may make payments on line by going to www.flywire.com for a no hassle and no fee payment process.

Optional Payment Plans

Students frequently inquire about the availability of payment plans used to cover all or part of the annual cost of college over an extended period of time. Roberts Wesleyan College offers an automated payment plan through Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS). Payments can be spread over five or ten months for a nominal charge ($25 or $45). More information about all available plans can be obtained at www.roberts.edu/payment or from the Office of Student Accounts.

Bookstore Charges

Students who have credit balances on their accounts may be able to use that credit to buy books at the RWC Bookstore. Students wishing to take advantage of this program should be able to just swipe their RWC student ID card at the bookstore checkout. If this is not possible the student should visit the Office of Student Accounts.
