How to Pay Your Bill

We accept online payments with credit card or ACH. Please note that credit card payments will include a 3% surcharge, and ACH payments may take 5-7 business days to process.
Mail a Check
Checks should be made out to Paul Smith’s College and mailed to:
Student Accounts Office
PO Box 265
Paul Smiths, NY 12970
- You can check your balance online using self-service. If you still have questions after checking your balance, or want a copy of your invoice, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us!
- As of Spring 2026, we no longer accepts cash payments. All payments must be made by Check, ACH, Credit or Debit Card, or Wire Transfer.
- Any bounced check payment will result in the denial of any further check payments for students. If your check is returned for insufficient funds, you will need to make all future payments by ACH, Card, or Wire Transfer.
- Any returned payment plan payments may result in payment plan termination. At which point the student will either need to pay their balance in full, or secure a student loan to cover their outstanding balance.
