OSEA’s Payment Options & Process

OSEA has now restructured the process for tuition & fees payment

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

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

Payments should be mailed to:
Quetzil Castañeda
CLACS - IU /OSEA
1125 East Atwater
Bloomington, IN 47401

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. Checks without funds are charged are returned and charged an additional fee of $20. Payment must then be delivered in all subsequent occassions through direct wire transfers.

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:

Online Payment via Credit Card or Directly From Bank Account
OSEA encourages Paypal Payment of the Application Fee. But does not accept paypal payments for Registration or Balance. Unfortunately All PayPal payments require an additional payment of a 3% transaction fee. This charge would have to be added to the amount paid to OSEA. This fee is significantly higher than the cost of a Direct Wire Transfer, which is recommended in cases of last minute payments.



How to Make an Online Payment
Online Payment OSEA uses PayPal to receive payments. If you are not already a PayPal user, please consider the benefits of opening an account at www.paypal.com This process will take five minutes and only requires information about your bank account. Payments are made directly from the bank account unless you choose to use a credit card. You may add credit card information to the account if you prefer to have payments made from your credit card. Once you have opened an account you can immediately begin to use it.

Please use the SEND MONEY feature on the top menu bar in your account at the PayPal web site.
Use “quetzil@osea-cite.org” as the recipient.
Use message space to communicate any specific instructions.
You will receive a receipt from PayPal for this transaction.

Tuition and Fees, including Initial Registration can be paid by check for all programs.
To ensure that payment transactions are processed in a timely manner, we strongly encourage applicants to use internet payment for the Application Fee.
