Making Payments From Oversees For College Students Manhattan School of Music has partnered with Flywire for international students to send tuition payments in their own currency. It is a safe, fast, and secure method for making wire transfers that provides favorable foreign exchange rates, helps avoid bank fees, and provides tracking of your payment from start to finish with 24/7 multi-lingual customer support. This is often the payment platform of choice for major universities and colleges. Flywire has teamed up with UnionPay indefinitely to help international student from Mainland China save on foreign exchange rates. When a student uses UnionPay on the Flywire website, their payment will be discounted to the same low level as a local currency bank transfer. If you would like to use Flywire for your Spring 2023 semester payment, click here to get started.
Credit Card Payments Credit card payments are accepted in person or by telephone. Please contact the Student Accounts Office by calling 917.493.4464 or 917.493.4467.
All credit card payments will incur a nonrefundable processing fee of 3.5% in order for MSM to recover actual costs paid to its credit card service provider. This processing fee is not greater than the applicable Merchant Discount Rate for Mastercard Credit Card Transactions at the Merchant (MSM). (Mastercard Rule 5.11.2.3(2))
We can accept credit cards under the following circumstances:
The 3.5% processing fee will be applied to payment for any item that appears on your student bill including but not limited to tuition, fees, residence hall, and meal plan.
In order to participate in any payment plan, you must enroll through the CASHnet website. If you are enrolling for the first time, you will need to create a new account using your six digit student ID number and MSM email address. All others will simply log in using their existing user credentials.
The four or three monthly payment plan is effective per semester and is administered and offered through CASHnet. It breaks down the costs for the entire fall semester (net of expected approved financial aid)
Payments can be submitted via ACH bank transfer or Credit Card (see below regarding credit card processing fee that will be charged). If you are currently enrolled in a payment plan using ACH bank transfer and need to change your payment method to a credit card, you can switch at any time in the CASHNet payment portal.
ACH Payments can only be made from a U.S. domestic bank (ex: HSBC, Citibank, etc.). All payments should be made as scheduled as there are financial consequences for late and/or missed payments. Those financial consequences include late fees and termination of the payment plan. Should your payment plan be withdrawn (terminated) for any reason, full payment of the outstanding tuition balance for the semester will be due immediately to the Student Accounts Office. As always, if you are experiencing a change in your financial circumstances that affect your ability to pay, we recommend you to contact the Student Accounts Office at your earliest convenience.Â
Credit Card Processing Fee Manhattan School of Music is committed to providing students and their families a range of options for paying their educational expenses. Students will be charged a processing fee by Manhattan School of Music’s third-party credit card processing vendor when making credit card payments to their CASHNet plan. This change is being made to offset the costs associated with providing the convenience of online credit card payments.
CASHNet, an independent third-party contractor, will charge a non-refundable processing fee based on the amount charged. Domestic credit card payments will incur a non-refundable processing fee of 3.5%, and international credit cards will incur a non-refundable processing fee of 4.25%. This processing fee is assessed by and paid to CASHNet; Manhattan School of Music does not receive any of this fee. The charge for the processing fee will appear separately from the payment on your card statement.
NOTE: Â A debit card with a credit card issuer logo will be processed as a credit card and incur the above processing fees. If you wish to make a payment from your bank account, utilize the ACH (Automated Clearing House) payment option to avoid the credit card processing fee.
