PayTheBursar

Terms

PayTheBursar is a free reference for comparing ways to pay a college bill. Using the site means you understand the limits below.

Not advice, and not the bill

Nothing on the site is tax, legal, or financial advice, and nothing is an offer of credit. Figures can be wrong or out of date. The amount that matters is the one the bursar or its processor shows when you pay. Check that screen before you submit a payment.

No promise the data is complete

"Not verified yet" means we do not have a source. It is not a statement that a fee is zero. College Scorecard costs and the CFPB 2022–23 payment-plan file describe past reporting periods. Your bill can differ.

Sponsored links

Some outbound links are sponsored. If a link includes an affiliate code, we may earn a commission. That does not change the fee comparison. Details are on the affiliate disclosure.

Use of the site

Do not use the site to submit someone else's personal information in a correction or signup. Do not try to break the forms. We may remove content or stop taking submissions if a form is abused.

The site is provided as-is. To the extent the law allows, PayTheBursar is not liable for a payment decision you make from these pages, including a fee, a missed due date, or a tax result. Some places do not allow that limit, and in those places it applies only as far as it legally can.
