Paying Tuition

vonnie

So, I've always paid my tuition through bank transfer, but now that I have a credit card, I thought "why not" it'll help with points! Right?

Well I go to the Account Finances page in my account, and it says this:

You can pay all charges on your student account by internet or telephone banking; or by putting a cheque or money order in the drop off mailbox located at SFU Burnaby, top floor of MBC 3000 - the cheque should be made payable to Simon Fraser University, with your student number clearly PRINTED on the front; or in person at any SFU campus (Burnaby, Surrey, Vancouver) Registrar and Information Services general enquiries counter by debit/bank card, cash, cheque or money order. You can also use the 'Make a Payment' option to pay the admissions application fee, admission deposit and all outstanding charges of your student account via a credit card (Visa or MasterCard).

So can I pay tuition via credit card?

baby e

I dont think you can.

I was under the impression that you can only use a credit card in your first semester. After that, you have to find another way of paying for it.

How come it says "You can also use the 'Make a Payment' option to pay... all outstanding charges of your student account via a credit card"?

I know a lot of universities that can't pay by credit card. How come you can only do it first semester? First sem at SFU or of the year?
