International Payment Instructions

International Payment Instructions

Checks/banker's drafts should be made payable to Schiller International University and mailed to the bursar of the campus where the student will attend.

Please always note the name of the student and the campus where she/he will be attending on all payments or correspondence.

Payment of tuition and fees can also be arranged through credit cards (Eurocard/MasterCard, VISA, and American Express). A Credit Card Mail Charge Authorization form is included on the statement of tuition and fees, the application form and the acceptance letter. Besides handling these charges by mail, students can also present their credit cards to the campus bursars. Charges assessed by banks on foreign checks or on bank transfers will be charged to the students' accounts. It is the responsibility of the student or parents to send payments promptly according to the schedule of payment dates. Please note on the check the name of the student and the campus she/he will be attending. All fees must be paid in order for the student to register.

Credit Card Payment Form

Delayed payment of fees is possible only after a written deferred payment agreement has been signed and authorized by the campus bursar prior to registration. Should such an agreement not be honored on time, a monthly compound interest will be raised on outstanding fees. A deferred payment fee will be charged for each agreement. No deferred payment agreements will be approved for summer terms.

Students should also consider incidental costs for books, personal laundry service, independent travel, clothing and other items that vary according to individual tastes.

Schiller International University campuses that offer on-campus accommodation can be reserved by completing the accommodation form and returning it to the appropriate campus with the accommodation deposit.

Please note that fees for room and board (where applicable) include accommodations and meals from the first day of orientation through the last day of the term as published in the academic calendar. These fees do not include accommodations or meals during fall and spring semester breaks, nor do they include any dormitory accommodations or meals during university vacation periods between terms. In exceptional cases, students may be allowed to occupy rooms and take their meals in the student dining room when available. However, there will be additional charges for both rooms and meals between terms and during semester breaks. Special arrangements must be made with the campus residence director prior to the period for which a student wishes special accommodations and/or meal arrangements. Schiller International University reserves the right to adjust the quoted fees in the event of changes in the currency exchange rates after the time of this publishing.

Deposits
The liability deposit will be held for the duration of each student's program. Students will be charged for damage to property or equipment. When individual responsibility can be determined, the individual will be charged. When individual responsibility cannot be determined, charges will be divided across the appropriate group of students.

Refund Policies

Withdrawal
It is the responsibility of the student to inform the campus registrar in writing that he/she wishes to withdraw from the university. Any refunds that may be due to a student will be made within thirty (30) calendar days of the student's official withdrawal date, which is the date on which the student notifies the campus registrar. Refunds to students who fail to notify the university of their withdrawal will be processed within the earlier of thirty (30) calendar days from the day the university determines that the student has withdrawn or thirty (30) days from the end of the term during which the student withdrew.

Visa Denial
Please note that all fees must be paid three weeks prior to the beginning of each semester. Installment payments are not permitted.

Please note that the university is now required by law to report all students to the BCIS who have received an I-20 and who do not register for courses and have not returned the original I-20 to the U.S. Admissions Office.

If you obtain your visa this deposit amount shall be credited to your account for payment towards your tuition and entrance fee upon your registration. If you are unable to obtain a visa from the U.S. Consulate, you may return your I-20 form and original letter from the U.S. Embassy denying your visa application to us and we will refund your deposit, less fees for courier service or wire transfer fees, as may be required.

Deferral Policies
(The original I-20 is always required back before any deferrals may be made for all international students for the Largo, Florida campus.)
