Important Immigration Reminders
- You must do your immigration enrollment confirmation form within 10 days of move-in. This is how we collect updated room/address information and any updates to majors/minors to be able to register you in SEVIS Deadline: September 1
- Be sure you are in a minimum of 12 credits each semester to maintain your immigration status.
- You must have permission from the Center for Global Engagement (CGE) before starting any type of work, internship or practicum (you will get a permission letter from us and you will get a new I-20)
Billing
You can find your Fall 2022 bill in Self-Service. You should have already received notification that it is there from the Business Office. Note the following:
- I don't have access to your bills. You should direct any questions to businessoffice@maryvillecollege.edu (Melanie Croft)
- If your bill is not paid by the start of classes, you will likely be dropped from classes and administratively withdrawn from the college. It is important to talk to the BUSINESS OFFICE as soon as you can if your payment will be delayed. They will not guarantee deferrals because we have had students who have not paid their balance.
Full payment is expected by August 23th. (You should have paid by August 2nd - so there will be a late fee if you have not yet paid). If you are planning to pay by any method other than credit card, you will need to make arrangements prior to your departure.
Maryville College accepts the following forms of payment:
- Credit Card: be sure that you contact your bank to allow for the entire amount owing to be charged at one time.
- Wire Transfer: You are responsible for all wire transfer related fees. Be sure that your name is in the notes on the wire transfer. Contact the Business Office for wire transfer information.
- Money Order / Bank Check / Travelers Checks (in US dollars)
- Check from US Bank account
For F-1 degree-seeking students, it may be possible to make monthly payments towards your tuition and fees. For more information visit: http://www.maryvillecollege.edu/admissions/finaid/types-of-aid/private-sources/payment-plan/
Not included in your bill: bank transfer fees if payment is wired, books.
