Paying Your Bill and Payment Plans
Below, you’ll find important information about paying your bill, including how to access your bill, payment options, payment plans, and relevant late fees.
Accessing Your Bill
You can view your account information by visiting the “Billing” – “My Monthly Statements” and “My Current Account Activity” sections of CLASS.
- “My Current Account Activity” – A live snapshot of your up-to-date account history reflecting current payments and any actual or anticipated aid.
- “My Monthly Statements” – A saved history of all current and prior billing statements received by term and date.
To reference the current academic year’s tuition, fee, room, and board rates, you can visit our tuition and fees page.
Be sure to review your bill and applicable aid closely. Is your financial aid package incomplete or are you missing certain grants and/or loans? You may be missing important documents needed for federal or state processing. Be sure to reach out to onestop@adelphi.edu and a member of our One-Stop Student Services Center team will guide you through the next steps to finalize your financial aid eligibility.

Payment Policy
Stay on top of your payments by reviewing our tuition policies.
Registered students will be billed in June and November proceeding the start of the fall and spring semester and in April for the summer semester and will continue on a 21 day billing cycle with tuition and fee payments due on the 21st of each month. Students are responsible for all charges regardless of billing. All personal payments will be applied to past due balances first. Any personal check payment not honored by the bank is subject to a returned check fee and a late payment fee (if applicable). You may also receive an additional charge from your financial institution. The University is not responsible for fees assessed by your bank
Adelphi reserves the right to apply credit balances to past-due accounts within federal and state guidelines.
Students should contact the One-Stop Student Services Center if you do not receive your monthly statement(s) on CLASS. Payments must be made in accordance with University policies, whether or not bills are received.
Students may request a current statement of account by contacting the One-Stop Student Services Center. Once the request is received, the statement of account will be mailed to the address on file.
Effective August 2021, a financial balance or block will no longer prevent a student from receiving a transcript. However, students will still be responsible for any outstanding indebtedness to the University and will not be permitted to register, receive a diploma, or reserve a room in the residence halls without meeting their financial obligations.
Payment Plans
Semester Payment Plans
Adelphi University, in partnership with Transact (formerly Cashnet), offers convenient payment plans on a semester basis, providing you with even more flexibility on how to manage paying for school.
Enroll to use a payment plan to help spread all or part of your balance due over the course of the semester, and pay one low fee at enrollment, avoiding the high-interest rates that normally come with a traditional loan.
You have the option of up to five payments per semester, depending on when you enroll. The earlier you enroll in a plan, the lower your monthly payments will be.
To learn more about the benefits of enrolling in a payment plan, please view this short video.
