Payment

Invoices are sent electronically to registered returning students. An email is sent to each student's New School email address notifying him or her that the invoice is ready to view through the my.newschool.edu Internet portal. Fall invoices are available for viewing in early July, with a payment (or payment arrangement) due date of August 10. Invoices for the spring semester are available in December, with a payment (or payment arrangement) due date of January 10. The invoice contains all current financial aid as of the date of the invoice.

New incoming students register during the summer months before the fall term and are invoiced before the start of the term. The payment (or payment arrangement) due date for these students is provided on the invoice. Please be sure to contact Financial Aid if you notice that your awards haven't been (fully) posted.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. If you'd like to authorize a user to view your billing and financial aid information, you may do so by adding an authorized user. If you would like more information on FERPA, please refer to the Registrar's Privacy Rights page.

• Payment Due Dates

  You must either pay the account balance in full or be enrolled in a payment plan on or before the following payment due dates to avoid a late payment fee.

  Semester	Date
  Fall	August 10
  Spring	January 10
  Summer	May 30

  New and Returning Students

  New and continuing students who register just before the start of classes must pay their tuition, fees, and housing, if applicable, in full, less approved financial aid awards. Alternatively, they can make approved payment arrangements (degree students only) with Student Accounts at the time of registration.

  Registration is not complete until payment or payment arrangements have been made. Payment for continuing and adult education and certificate students must accompany the registration.

• Financial Holds on Student Records

  Financial holds are placed on the records of students whose New School accounts show a past-due balance of tuition and fees. Holds block future registration and the release of transcripts and diplomas.

  Clearing a Hold

  If you discover that there is a hold on your records, go to my.newschool.edu and look up your account details. If you have questions about the hold, contact us at once.

  In order to clear a hold for a current semester, you must pay the balance in full or enroll in a current payment plan. You can usually make payments online using the my.newschool.edu portal. Alternatively, you can make payments in person at the Cashiering Office, located at 72 Fifth Avenue on the second floor.

  Students can sign up for the university's monthly payment plan until almost the end of the semester. Financial counseling is also available at the Cashiering Office.
