OSEA’s Payment Options & Process

OSEA has now restructured the process for tuition & fees payment
Fee payment structure changes in effect Nov. 15, 2004

OSEA accepts: Checks, Direct Wire Transfer, and Credit Card (via PayPal).

We strongly encourage applicants to pay Application Fees via the Online Payment Service (see below).
We do not charge additional fees for Application Fees.

For the payment of Registration, Tuitition and Lodging & Activities Fee there are three options listed below. (Online payment and Wire Transfer of Tuition, Lodging & Activities Fee require an additional banking fee.)

Check Payments
Please make checks payable to “OSEA”.
You will receive a receipt for payments submitted via check.

Payments should be mailed to:
OSEA-CITE
2244 Martha Street
Bloomington, IN 47408

Checks that are lost in the mail, stolen, delivered late or delivered to a different address are the responsibility of the participant. Late Payments caused by late arrival or missing checks accrue late fees. In addition, lost checks or checks sent to an incorrect address, may create a situation requiring the use of other payment methods.


Direct Wire Transfers
Wire deposits are also available for an additional flat fee of $15 per deposit. These require prior arrangement with OSEA.

Please contact OSEA’s Director, Quetzil Castañeda, by telephone to confirm arrangements:

For Winter Quarter 2005 Participants
One-time full Payment of tuition & fees of $4,750 by December 5 qualifies for a waiver of both late fees and wire deposit fee and it allows a tuition discount of $85.

Online Credit Card and Online Payments from Your Bank Account
We offer the opportunity to make a payment directly from your bank account or a credit card payment via Paypal. All PayPal payments require an additional fee of 3% to the amount being sent — this is the transaction fee PayPal charges OSEA.
