International Students

International Drafts

A demand draft on an American bank in American dollars is an acceptable form of payment. Please note the check must be drawn exclusively on a U.S. bank. If an international bank is referenced on the check, the domestic bank collections process will be initiated. This process can take several weeks before payment is posted to your account. Bank collection fees may reduce the payment amount. Please be sure to include student name and ID on the front of your check / draft payment.

Wire Payments

Wiring payments is a secure, easy, and convenient payment method for international students. NCSU has partnered with peerTransfer to offer a simple international tuition payment solution. With peerTransfer, you are offered excellent foreign exchange rates, allowing you to pay in your home currency (in most cases) and save a significant amount of money as compared to traditional banks. Also, peerTransfer captures all your student information at the time of payment, which ensures peace-of-mind that your payment will be properly credited to your account in a timely manner. International students go to https://peertransfer.com/ncsu/ to begin the payment process.

(Domestic Students should contact the Cashier's Office at (919) 515-2986 email studentaccounts@ncsu.edu for instructions.)

Sponsored Students

If your tuition will be paid by your government or other non-campus sponsor, an authorization letter will need to be submitted no later than the billing due date for the semester. If you are a TA, RA, or are receiving Graduate Assistance, your campus sponsor must submit Departmental Authorization.

View Sponsor Billing for more information.


Advanced Payment

Tuition and fees may be paid in advance for one semester or the entire year. If you pay in advance and get financial aid or an assistantship at the university, a refund will be issued after your financial aid or tuition remission credit has been posted to your account.
