Employer-Paid Tuition

Third-Party Billing — The University bills employers directly for the costs their employees incur. Contact the Human Resource or Personnel department at your place of employment to find out if your company offers this benefit. If so, the student must submit documentation prior to each term to the Student Accounting Office that clearly indicates who is to be billed for the tuition and fees. Employer vouchers should be submitted before the first day of the term. Please include your student ID number and submit voucher or questions to studentaccounts@udmercy.edu.

Tuition Reimbursement — The University will allow students to register without a down payment if their employers offer tuition reimbursement benefits.

To take advantage of this plan, prior to the beginning of each term the student must furnish a letter on the company's letterhead stating that the student is employed by the company and that the company will reimburse the tuition and fees incurred for that student. Payment is deferred up to 60 days after the end of the term. Students in the program cannot register owing more than one past term. Your letter can be faxed to 313-993-1414, Attn: C. Fletcher or scanned and emailed to fletchec@udmercy.edu. Please include your student ID number on the letter.

Michigan Trade Exchange

The University will accept Michigan Trade Exchange Dollars for tuition payment however, note that:

• Payment is limited to one semester at a time
• Trade Dollars are accepted for up to full time undergraduate tuition only
• Select programs at capacity will be exempted from Trade Dollar participation
• Residence Halls and meal plans are exempted from Trade Dollar participation

To use Michigan Trade Exchange Dollars you must contact Lauri Landry at 313-993-1421 or landryll@udmercy.edu.

Interest-free payments

To help you afford your education expenses, 樱桃视频 offers interest-free monthly payment options.  These options allow you to spread out your payments. 

Semester Plan – Fall or Winter – four or five monthly payments 

Enrollment deadlines

To take advantage of the longest plans (five monthly payments), you must enroll by the "longest plan" deadlines in the table below. After the longest plan deadlines, the number of months offered decreases (increasing your monthly payment). Enrollment for shorter monthly plans is required by the "shorter plan" deadlines shown.

Transact Campus Smartpay, powered by Cashnet, is the third-party electronic payment processor for 樱桃视频's monthly payment options. You will have access to payment information and support from Transact/Cashnet representatives by phone or online:

• Phone: 800-339-8131
  (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. EST)
• Online: Automated access 24 hours a day via the .

Fees and payment methods

The enrollment charges for the monthly payment options are:

$35 enrollment fee for each semester plan 

You can set up the following payment methods:

• checking account
• savings account
• credit card *
• debit card *

* Credit/debit card payments to Transact/Cashnet will be charged a 2.95% service fee (4.25% for international cards) for monthly payments. (Service fees do not apply to payment of enrollment fees.) Checking and savings account payments do not incur service fees.

Although the Transact/Cashnet system defaults to automatic monthly deductions, you can deselect this option if you prefer to sign in each month to make your payment manually.

How to set up a plan

Monthly payment plans are set up using the Transact/Cashnet system. To set up a plan:

1. using your My Portal sign-in
2. Choose Payment Plan * (CashNet) to go to the Transact/Cashnet payment site
   
3. Select Payment plans, and View payment plan options
4. Follow the prompts to select and set up your payment plan.  The plan balance will be determined by the system and will reflect financial aid that is applied to the account (10 days before the start of the term). The first payment is not due until after aid is applied.

Students can also give access to parents to enroll in a Payment Plan, by selecting the "Send a payer invitation" button on their Overview page. When the parent receives the invitation through their email, they will be given a PIN, password, and link where they will be connected to the student's Overview page, so they can click the Payment Plans and View payment plan options links to enroll.

For more information about these interest-free monthly payment options, contact either Transact/Cashnet (above), or contact the Student Accounting Office.

Students who have enrolled in classes but have not made a payment or payment arrangements by the payment due date will be notified of the University’s intention to withdraw them from classes. The due date is the Friday before the beginning of the semester. This policy does not apply to those students who have received financial aid awards. Students who still have not made satisfactory arrangements by the end of final day of registration will be dropped from their classes.

Students who are withdrawn lose their enrollment in the classes they were registered for and must follow the normal add/drop policies to be re-registered into class. This requires obtaining instructor’s signature and advisor’s signature for open classes that have met or are closed and advisor’s signature for open classes during the add/drop week. A late registration fee will be also assessed for those re-registering.
