Alternative Methods for Student Account Payments
- Check Payments: All check payments must be sent to Brown University Cashier Office, Box 1911, Providence, RI 02912. Checks must be made payable in US dollars and must not be post-dated. Third party checks (checks made payable to anyone other than Brown University that have been endorsed by the payee) will not be accepted.
- International Payments: Flywire is Brown University's preferred method of payment for international student account payments. The University has partnered with Flywire to offer favorable foreign exchange rates, the ability to pay in home currency (in most cases) and savings compared to traditional banks. Students and families are able to track payments via Flywire's dashboard and receive notification via email (and/or text) when the payment is received by Brown University. Visit Brown.flywire.com to make an international student account payment.
- Installment Payment Plan: Students and families may choose to make semester payments via Brown University's Installment Payment Plan (IPP). This plan enables students and their families to pay interest-free monthly installments. A non-refundable enrollment fee must be paid at the time of enrollment.
- Third-party Payment: Third-party payment may be received from a domestic or foreign company, corporation, state or government agency that has been granted special billing arrangements to cover tuition and other fees for students that they sponsor. Third-party payments should have a letter from the sponsor including the student name, student Banner ID number and semester to which the funds should apply. Payments must be made in U.S. dollars and payable to Brown University. All checks must be mailed to Brown University Cashier Office, Box 1911, Providence, RI 02912.
- Financial Aid: The Office of Financial Aid assists undergraduate and graduate students in understanding all aspects of the financial aid application processes for federal, state and institutional need-based grants and loans. The Alpert Medical School (AMS) Office of Financial Aid is dedicated to assisting students who may not have the financial resources to meet the full cost of attending medical school.
