Payment Terms

  • Expenses are due and payable at registration or at specific dates set by the Cashier’s Office for students who are allowed to register well before the scheduled in-person registration dates.    Questions about payment dates and all questions concerning student invoices and payments should be directed to the manager of the Cashier’s Office. The phone number is 570-348-6212 or you can send them an email.
  • Ordinarily, payments for each semester’s expenses are due approximately three weeks before the first day of classes.
  • All students are required to make full payment for expenses by the specified due dates or at registration, whichever occurs later, unless an application for one of the University deferment options is submitted to the Cashier’s office by the semester due date or at registration. 
  • International students are required to observe the same payment terms established for all students.  International students should make appropriate arrangements for the transfer of funds from their home country so that payment of tuition and fees may be made by the specified due dates.  Failure to do this can result in cancellation of the student’s registration.  In many cases, it can take as long as 12 weeks for funds to be transferred to the U.S. from other countries.
  • In case of financial delinquency, the President of Marywood University reserves the right to refuse registration, admission to courses, transcript of credits, reports of grades, student records, certificates, diplomas, and/or any other official documents.  Degree candidates will also have their names removed for the graduation list.
