Online Payments by Parents, Guardians or Other Third Parties

If you are a parent, guardian or other third party, students can give you access to Payment Suite and their e-bill independently of MySLU. This process requires two steps:

  1. Become an authorized user and obtain a password. Students can use the Payment Suite (mySLU Apps) to register you as an authorized user. A password will be sent to the email address provided by the student.
  2. Log in to the Bill Payment Suite. You can log in at https://billpay.slu.edu using the email address and password associated with your authorized user registration. Once there, you may view the student's bill, make payments or enroll in a payment plan.

International Payments 

International students can make payments using Flywire . Flywire accepts payments from any country — typically in your home currency.

In order to submit the enrollment deposit, incoming international students should log into their Billiken Gateway portal.

Students enrolling in the INTO SLU program can make payments using INTOPay. INTOPay accepts payments from any country via debit card, credit card, or bank transfer. These payments can typically be made in your home currency as well. Please click here to use INTOPay for the INTO SLU program. If you have any questions, please contact into.slu.finance@slu.edu.

Using Flywire:

  • Once you initiate payment on slu.flywire.com you will receive detailed instructions on how to transfer funds to SLU. Flywire will keep you informed every step in the process, including when funds have reached SLU.
  • Create a booking with Flywire every time you need to send money to SLU. For more information, you can view videos about Flywire and how to make payment in English and Chinese.
  • After you've made your payment, log back into Flywire's website to review the status of your payment. SLU will be notified once Flywire has guaranteed the funds.
  • Flywire has 24/7 support available via phone, email or Skype. Please see Flywire support for contact information.

Late Payments and Nonpayments

Late Payments:

Students enrolled in the payment plan with an enrollment fee will automatically be switched to the payment plan with the 1 percent interest charge if they are late making more than one payment. Interest charges and late fees will not be assessed until after Sept. 1 for the fall semester and Feb. 1 for the spring semester.

Nonpayment on Account:

If any tuition, fees or charges owed to the University are not paid as and when due, we reserve the right to withhold transcripts or diplomas related to your enrollment and cancel your enrollment for a current term and/or registration for future terms. If you no longer plan to attend Saint Louis University, contact the Office of the Registrar for an official withdrawal at 314-977-2269.

Payment Plans

Pay in Full

Pay your semester bill in full to Saint Louis University. Full payment for the fall semester is due by August payment due date; full payment for the spring semester is due by January due date.

Monthly Payment Plans

You can also enroll in one of two monthly payment plan options. The deadlines for enrolling in a monthly payment plan are July 31 for the fall semester and Dec. 31 for the spring semester.

  • Semester Enrollment Fee: If you chose this option, you will make monthly payments that are interest free, but you will be assessed an enrollment fee of $75 each semester.
  • Interest Charge: If you chose this option, you will be assessed a 1 percent interest charge each month on any unpaid balance.

Typically, students with an outstanding balance of between $4,000 and $5,000 or more benefit from choosing the payment plan with the enrollment fee. Students with smaller outstanding balances are more likely to benefit from choosing the payment plan with the 1 percent interest charge.
