  • Online payments using a MasterCard, Visa, Discover, or American Express credit card at (2.85% - 3.15% service fee will be charged to your account)

Payment Plans
Payment plans can be set up by the student online within the designated payment plan setup time frame for each semester. This will occur before the billing due date for the semester.
  • There is a $40 setup fee attached to all payment plan options
  • There is a $25 nonrefundable late fee assessed by TouchNet and attached to all installments that are 6 days or more past due
  • Installments can be scheduled to be automatically paid on dates earlier than their due dates on the payment plan if you so choose
  • Students can make additional payments outside of the payment plan in order to lower the amounts of the remaining installments
Typically, there will be a 2-month payment plan option and a 4-month payment plan option for each semester. This means that after the setup fee of $40 has been added to the total balance owed, that balance will then be spread over either 2 months or 4 months.

To set up a payment plan online, students can follow these steps:
  1. On the Student Finance page Click Continue to Account Info/Payment Center.
  2. Click Enroll in Payment Plan
Tuition liability
If a student drops a course within the add/drop period, they will not be liable to pay the tuition for that course. If a student drops a course within the weeks following the add/drop period, the amount of tuition that the student is liable to pay increases as time goes on.
  • During add/drop period = 0% tuition liability
  • Week one after add/drop period = 20% tuition liability
  • Week two after add/drop period = 40% tuition liability
  • Week three after add/drop period = 60% tuition liability
  • Week four after add/drop period and beyond = 100% tuition liability
Refunds
Refunds are issued to students when all of the following criteria have been met:
  • The student has a credit balance on their account
  • The student has completed 60% of the term
  • All financial aid and loan funds have been received by Daemen
There is no need to request a refund from the Office of Student Accounts. If a student is eligible for a refund, it will be processed and an email will be sent to the student’s Daemen email address.
Late Fees
A $100 late fee will be added to accounts with balances that are 14 days or more past due.

Paperless Bills
As our office is paperless, students will not receive a paper bill in the mail. Billing is exclusively online through the Daemen Self Service student account. Bills are typically available to view and pay about 4 weeks prior to the start of each semester, so long as students are registered for the semester. Due dates are typically about 2 weeks prior to the start of each semester. Email notifications are sent to students’ Daemen email addresses once bills are available for each term. You can view your statement, make a payment, set up a payment plan, set up a refund profile, and more by accessing your student account in the TouchNet account center.

On the Student Finance page Click Continue to Account Info/Payment Center.

Authorized users do not have access to students’ stored payment methods, academic records, or other personal information.
