Payment of your fees will depend on your level of study and the course you are taking.
If you are to pay your own tuition fees, these will be applied to your student record once you are fully enrolled. The invoice will be sent to you by email. The invoice will have a date on it by which the payment is to be made by.
There are 3 main ways in which to make your payment to the University:
- through your e:Vision account
- the University-s online payment system, or
- Flywire
You must not make payment directly to the University bank account, as this can cause delays, and payments are not always identifiable. Students wanting to pay by bank transfer can use the Flywire portal to do this.
Cash payments of up to £250 can be accepted at the main finance office on the York Campus on the first floor of Ripon Wing. Payments should be made in whole amounts; change is not given. In-person payments are not accepted at the London campus.
The fastest and most direct way to make payment to the University is by bank card through e:Vision or the Online Payment system:
How to pay through e:Vision
Any invoices raised to your student record that need to be paid will be visible on your e:Vision account.
To find the correct place to make your payment, you need to log into e:Vision. From the homepage click -Check Balance and Bank details (this is on the right-hand side under Quick Links).
This will take you to the finance information page.
If you click on statement of current financial position, this will take you to your financial statement, which shows your remaining amount to pay.
Here you will be able to see what the currently invoiced remaining amount is that you must pay. This will be different for all students.
If you have a payment overdue, this means it should have already been paid and must be paid as soon as possible.
To make a payment, you should click 'Pay balance.' This will take you to the next screen, which is the payment page.
When you get to the payment page, the 3 boxes under 'Pay' will already be ticked and the full amount will be shown at the bottom of the screen. To make a payment of one invoice or instalment only, you should untick any invoices you do not wish to pay and then click 'Update amount'.
The total amount you are now going to pay will be shown at the bottom of the screen. Next, click 'Pay' and follow through the payment screens providing the information required to make your payment using your bank card.
You should aim to always pay the full amount. If you are not able to pay all of it, and you wish to make a smaller payment, then you are able to do this in e:Vision.
In the amended amount box, enter the amount you wish to pay. Leaving the 'Pay' box ticked, click 'Update amount' and this will show as the total amount you are going to pay. Then click 'Pay'. Follow through the payment screens providing the information required to make your payment using your bank card.
When you have paid all fees currently invoiced to you in full, the transaction will no longer be visible on your e:Vision statement.
How to pay through the Online Payment System
If you are unable to pay through e:Vision for any reason, the best alternative to use is the University online payment system: https://payments.yorksj.ac.uk/open.
You can also use the website link, or through the statements emailed to you each month.
To log on to this payment system, you will need to enter your student ID number and date of birth. Tick that you accept the terms and conditions of the University, then click -continue.
When you have successfully logged onto the online payment system, your student number will be displayed on the screen.
You will see the options for the type of payment you are making:
- Tuition fees
- Accommodation fees
- Miscellaneous, and
- International deposit
Select your option, then type in the amount you are paying.
You should aim to always pay the full amount due, but other payment amounts can be made here. The payment method dropdown on the right of the screen should be left showing -Pay Now- .
Once you are happy you have entered the amount to pay, click -'continue', then follow through the payment steps.
Please be aware that payments are not instantly applied to your record, and it can take a few days for your student record to be updated, depending how and when they are paid.
Please be aware that there may be other charges still to be invoiced to you.
Statement of fees to pay
Statements of fees to pay are sent out each month to all students who have fees to pay to the University, whether they are due for payment now or in the future.
The statement contains:
- all your student details
- how to make the payment
- how much you still have left to pay, and
- when those payments are required
When payment is made, the total balance and overdue amount will reduce. If all your invoices are due to be paid in the future, the total overdue will be zero.
If you have paid your fees in full, you will not receive these statements.
Payments are not visible in e:Vision to students once they have been allocated to an invoice.
If you have any concerns about your financial status, you should contact the Student Hub team who will be able to help. If they cannot assist, then they can refer you to the Finance team.
