Billing and Payment Options

Billing

Students are billed for the semester each billing cycle. Tuition, application fees, registration fees, technology fees, and late fees are the billable items that appear on students’ bills. UOTP uses an electronic billing system that allows students to access account summaries online through the student portal.

Tuition payments are due at time of registration for NEW and READMIT students unless the student is eligible for financial aid and has been given by the Student Financial Services office or other if financial arrangements have been made with University of the Potomac.

CONTINUING and RE-ENTRY student’s tuition payments are due two (2) weeks prior to the start of a new semester. Students are responsible for any financial obligation incurred while attending University of the Potomac regardless of any anticipated financial aid. Students with an outstanding balance due may not be allowed to attend classes. Payments not received by the due date are subject to a late fee.

Payment Options

Accepted methods of payment include financial aid, military benefits, checks, money orders, wire transfers, and credit cards.

If paying by check or money order, please include the student’s name and student’s ID number (if known). Checks and money orders can be mailed to the address below:

Secured payments

Stripe – Payment Security

University of The Potomac processes all bank card transactions using Stripe: stripe.com and does not hold any debit or credit card information on our own website: www.potomac.edu

Stripe has been audited by a PCI-certified auditor and is certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry. To accomplish this Stripe make use of best-in-class security tools and practices to maintain a high level of security at Stripe.

Encryption of sensitive data and communication

All card numbers are encrypted on disk with AES-256. Decryption keys are stored on separate machines. None of Stripe’s internal servers and daemons are able to obtain plaintext card numbers; instead, they can just request that cards be sent to a service provider on a static whitelist. Stripe’s infrastructure for storing, decrypting, and transmitting card numbers runs in separate hosting infrastructure and doesn’t share any credentials with Stripe’s primary services (API, website, etc.).

This will only take a moment.
