Payment of all University charges must be received by the University Cashiers’ Office by the due date on your invoices to avoid late payment penalties and account holds. The University will not register a student, confer a degree on a student, or provide a transcript to any student or former student who has any financial obligation to the University (other than a loan not yet due).

Students who have an outstanding balance at the end of a term may not participate in an upcoming term until their debt has been satisfied. Even though students are allowed to preregister for an upcoming term with an outstanding balance on their student account, the registration will not be valid and will be removed prior to the beginning of the next term if payment in full is not received.

Federal regulations preclude the use of current financial aid for payment of past-due charges.

The University assesses a $25 late charge on every student account if a full payment is not received by the due date. Failure to pay amounts due may result in the referral of outstanding balances to a third party billing company or collection agency; additional fees may be assessed at that time. Credit bureau reporting of any unpaid balance may also result.

• On-line – Secure electronic payments by check or by credit card can be made on-line through CampusNet.
• There is no fee to pay by electronic check.
• MasterCard, Discover, Diners Club and American Express are accepted. VISA is NOT accepted. Note that a 2.9% service fee is assessed with all credit card payments. (Log onto CampusNet and click on the Account tab, then on Make Payment and follow the instructions.) Your student account balance is updated immediately when making a payment on-line.
• Mail – Only checks and money orders made payable to Cleveland State University should be mailed. Payments should be sent to:

Cleveland State University
Cashier’s Office – MC 115
2121 Euclid Ave
Cleveland, Ohio 44115

Please write your CSU ID number on the front of the check. Do not mail credit card information or cash. Also, do not use the interoffice Campus Mail service to deliver any check, credit card or cash payment.

• In Person – Checks, money orders or cash payments are accepted at the Cashier’s Office located in the Main Classroom Building room 115 during regular business hours.
• Express Payment Center (located outside the Cashier’s area in MC115) - Checks and money orders can be securely deposited at the Express Payment Center. Payments are processed before noon on the next business day. Please include your CSU ID number on all checks.

Returned Check Fees

Payments made by check which are returned due to non-sufficient funds are charged a bank processing fee of $35. Returned checks must be repaid with collected funds, i.e., cash, money order, cashier or bank certified checks. Failure to clear a returned check and/or attempted use of multiple returned checks will result in the loss of all check cashing privileges, including the ability to make electronic check payments. Checks that are not cleared are subject to late charges and collection fees.

Payments made with an electronic check are also subject to returned check fees. Please be accurate in your entry of information on line. Returned check fees are not refundable.

Wire Transfer Payments

Cleveland State University does not accept foreign checks. For the benefit of our international students, wire transfers are the preferred method of remitting payments. This allows a student to access their funds within 48 hours rather than the usual six to eight weeks required for processing a foreign check.

The following table identifies information required to transfer funds to the University’s bank account. This information should be provided to the originator of the funds. Contact Charles Miller at 216-523-7441, or c.a.miller15@csuohio.edu in the Office of Treasury Services for the actual routing number, swift code and account number.
