Macalester's New Online Billing Statement

The Student Accounts Office at Macalester College implemented a new billing process that began with the July 16, 2008 billing statement.  This change in process has taken place for several reasons.  One reason is that we now have software that makes this opportunity available.  Another reason and advantage of this change in process is that students and authorized users may view information relating to billing accounts, statements, and account activity at their convenience.  This new process works hand in hand with the online payment option made available to students last summer.  And last, this change in process correlates directly with the leadership role Macalester College has taken in sustainability for higher education.  This change will not only save paper by not having to print statements but will also reduce the need for other paper products such as two forms of envelopes. 

Monthly Billing Statements:  The student and authorized users will receive email notification announcing that the newest electronic eBill statement is ready to view.   The new eBill statements will generally be ready on the 16th of the month or the first working day following the 15th which is the due date. All students and authorized users must go online to view the statements.  If a paper statement is required, the student or authorized user must print it at their convenience. 

Online Payments:  Online payments may be made by students and authorized users.  These payments are “real time” and can be made at the individual’s convenience.  Online payment options include checking/savings account (no fee) or with a credit card (2.75% fee).  We accept MasterCard, American Express, and Discover only.

To Become an Authorized User:  Students may authorize parents or other persons to become an authorized user.  An authorized user may view online billing information and make online payments.  To set up an authorized user, students should:

Recommendations: 

  • Students: Set up your authorized users before you return to school.  Do not wait. 
  • Authorized Users: Ask the student to set you up before they return to school.  Do not wait.  They are the only person that can do this for you.
  • Become familiar with the process before it becomes time sensitive.  
  • Consider making online payments.  These transactions are real time and convenient.
