Wire Transfer

If you would like to pay your tuition via wire transfer, please consider the following.  The funds must reach Naropa’s account by the tuition due date in order to be considered on time. Depending on your bank, the transfer may occur instantaneously or take as long as several days to occur. After you have completed the wire transfer with your bank, you must email tuition@naropa.edu with the following information: student name, the student’s ID number, the wire transfer number, the exact amount of the wire transfer, and when the wire should arrive in Naropa’s account.

Please contact the Coordinator of Student Accounts by phone at 303-546-3534 if you would like the information necessary to wire money to Naropa for payment.

Tuition Payment Plan

If you cannot pay tuition in full by the due date, Naropa offers a payment plan that breaks tuition into four payments. You must be a degree-seeking student at Naropa and have an unpaid balance of at least $500 in order to participate in this plan. There is a $50 enrollment fee, and you must re-enroll each semester. The first payment plus the $50 fee is due by the tuition due date. You must sign a payment plan agreement with the Coordinator of Student Accounts and make the first payment in order to enroll. You will be sent e-mail reminders approximately 10-14 calendar days before the next payment is due that will include the amount due, but you are responsible for making your payments on time whether or not you receive these reminders. Payment due dates for the spring 2012 semester are:

January 9, 2012
February 1, 2012
March 1, 2012
March 30, 2012

To sign up for the payment plan, please fill out the Tuition Payment Plan enrollment form.

If you have any questions about the payment plan, please contact the Coordinator of Student Accounts at tuition@naropa.edu or 303-546-3554, or visit the office located in Student Administrative Services.

Alternative Billing

If you would like your bill to be sent to someone other than yourself—i.e. parents, trust fund, Vocational Rehabilitation etc.—you may fill out an Alternative Billing Address form that will change your address for billing purposes only. After filling out this form, if you change your address with Naropa, your billing address does not change. These forms are available online or at the office of Student Administrative Services in the Administration Building.

Please be aware that we cannot discuss a student’s account with anyone but the student, unless we have written permission from the student. While an Alternative Billing Address form allows us to disclose the balance due, it does not allow us to discuss information such as what charge is connected to what class, what financial aid you are receiving, etc. Many parents and other bill payers do have questions about these things, and if you would like them to have access to this information, you must fill out a FERPA waiver. This waiver will allow us to release all education-related information, including billing information, to whoever is indicated on the waiver. FERPA waivers are available at the Student Administrative Services Office or at the Registrar.
