Bursar’s Office

You may pay your bill several ways. You can pay online with a credit card, in person or by mail. If you wish to pay in person, Brooklyn students may go to the Business Office, room 111, Long Island students may go to the
Bursar's Office, room N211. If the office is closed there is a drop slot in the door of each office to submit the payment. We do not accept payment by phone. To pay online, log into your portal page and select Web Advisor for students, select Financial Information and then select My Student Account.​

We accept credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express), cash, personal checks, certified checks and money orders. Checks should be made payable to St. Joseph's University. Please be sure to include your name, ID number and the semester you are remitting the payment for.

Bills are due on or before the first day of class for that term. All bills not paid by the first day of class will automatically default onto the Tuition Extension Agreement for the balance due. The use of this plan commits you to additional charges.

This is an internal payment plan that permits you to split your bill into two payments for the Fall or Spring semesters (this option is not available for Intersession). This plan does assess your account with an additional charge. Please be aware that this plan will restrict you from registering for an upcoming term if the balance is not completely satisfied. You may obtain a copy of this agreement online. There is a link to this form under Bursar Forms.

Aside from the Tuition Extension Agreement we also offer a budgeting program through an outside agency called Nelnet Campus Commerce. We offer individual plans for both the Fall and Spring semester. These are 5 month plans designed to budget costs over the course of each term. It is only available for Fall & Spring terms (summer and intersession are not to be incorporated into these plans).
