Payment methods

Payments via the internet can be made using either a credit/debit card or an eCheck.  The university accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, JCB, and American Express credit cards.  All credit card transactions are charged a 2.95% service fee on the amount of the transaction.  There is a $3.00 minimum service fee.

eCheck payments will require the following information: your bank routing number and your checking account number.  There is no additional cost to pay with eCheck.  We encourage payers to speak with their bank and verify their account numbers.

If you have a LOUIE User ID, use LOUIE to pay charges. This system will immediately post payments to your account.  Holds will be released overnight.

NAU partners with Flywire for students to send international payments to the university.  Flywire offers excellent foreign exchange rates that will help to lower your cost of attending.  As a student you can find the link to Flywire on your LOUIE account by clicking the Account Inquiry/Make a Payment link under the Finances section, or visit the Flywire website.  Flywire offers 24/7 support in multiple languages.

Check payments may be mailed directly to Student and Departmental Account Services.  Please make checks payable to NAU and be sure to include the Student ID Number on the check and mail to:

These plans pay in one of two ways. Contact your 529 to find out which they use:

1. You provide a bill/amount and they submit payment directly to the school – be sure to include your NAU ID number.
2. The 529 requires an invoice directly from the school as Third Party billing.  You notify your 529 company of your enrollment.  They will then provide NAU with documentation stating your plan benefits/restrictions and invoicing instructions.  See Third Party Billing below for additional information. 

Prepaid or College Savings Plan payments should be mailed at least two weeks prior to the tuition payment deadline to avoid automatic enrollment in the deferred payment plan and late charges.

For those whose attendance is sponsored, provide our office with the authorization to bill an outside organization.
