Bills and Payments

At epay.albany.edu, you will find the quickest and most convenient way to view and pay your tuition and fees. 

View and Pay Your E-Bill Online

An E-Bill is an electronic invoice. E-Bills are issued on or about the 20th of each month. Payment is due on the 15th of the following month. Email notification is sent to the student's UAlbany email address and to the Authorized User* when the E-Bill is ready to be viewed. You can elect to receive text message alerts, as well.

We recommend you SAVE TIME and PAY online at E-Pay. It is the fastest, most efficient way to pay your invoice. Please note: There is no fee for making a payment online with a credit card. 

Albany’s online payment system is available for use every day from 6am to 10pm, including Saturday and Sunday! 

On E-Pay, you can:

• View and print E-Bills
• Set up an *Authoried User (parents, employers, etc.) to make payments
• Sign up to receive text message alerts when your E-Bill is ready
• Make payments towards your balance
• Enroll in a payment plan
• Make a housing deposit
• Designate a checking or savings account as an E-Refund account
• Store payment methods for quick and easy payment 
• View payment history  

Remember: Your E-Bill is a snapshot of the balance due on your account the moment the E-Bill was issued. For any changes or updates to charges or financial aid, students should visit their MyUAlbany page.
  

To Log onto the E-Pay website:

For Students:

• Use your UAlbany Net ID and Password (the same NET ID and password you use to sign into MyUAlbany)
• If paying from a checking or savings account, you will need your bank’s routing number and Bank Account number. This information can be found on your check or your bank statement.

For Parents and other Designees
You will first need to be setup as an Authorized User. Your student can set you up as an Authorized User so you may assist with reviewing and paying invoices. Authorized Users also receive e-mail notification of E-Bills that are ready for viewing. Students should click on the “Authorized Users” tab and follow the set-up steps on E-Pay.
