Billing / Payment / Refund Schedule

Students and authorized users will receive an e-mail notification to check the statement in Bill+Payment (Please note: No paper bills will be mailed). Parent(s) and/or other third parties must be set up as authorized users to be able to get into Bill+Payment, see the statement, or pay the bill by credit card or checking account. Remember to check Bill+Payment through myWCU for your actual balance due. The statement is just a snapshot of your account at the point of billing.

  • Students with unpaid prior term charges will not be able to register for classes or get a transcript until the account is paid in full.
  • Payments must be received by 5:00 p.m. on the payment deadline.
  • If charges are being paid by a third party; please fax the information from the payer to the Financial Aid Office at 828-227-7042 so that the student's schedule won’t be dropped for nonpayment.
