International Payments

Central Michigan University has partnered with Transact Campus/TransferMate Education to offer international students a secure and seamless way to pay for tuition and fees in the currency of their choice.  Without leaving the student portal, students and authorized payers can quickly and conveniently make an international payment from over 160 countries, using more than 130 currencies - including Alipay, WeChat, and other popular alternative payment methods.

As a security measure and in keeping with recommended banking practices, wire transfers in excess of the balance due on a student account should not be sent to Central Michigan University.  If overpayment does occur, CMU reserves the right to wire back the excess to the originating account or hold the excess for a future semester.  Funds intended for a student for personal expenses should be wired directly to the student's local bank account.
