Instructions for payment of term bills are sent by mail to the student`s home address for the first and second terms with the due dates indicated.

It is the student`s responsibility to obtain, complete, and return the term bills on time. Students who fail to do so are charged a late payment fee of $125. Graduate students with balances of $200 or more may pay their bill according to the partial payment plan outlined below. In addition, for all balances not paid in full when due, the student is responsible for all costs incurred by the university to collect such debt. This may include, but is not limited to, collection costs, litigation/attorneys fees, and court costs.

Payment of the term bill on the web is greatly encouraged and can be accessed at http://newarkbusinessoffice.rutgers.edu, or may be made in person or by mail to the Cashier`s Office, Blumenthal Hall, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, 249 University Avenue, Newark, NJ 07102-1896. Checks or money orders are preferred and should be made payable to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. Cash should not be sent through the mail.

Payment also can be made by Visa, MasterCard, or Discover Card. Transactions that are declined by the bank are considered unpaid and are returned to the student. Refunds of credit card payments will be processed with a check issued by Rutgers University to the student.
