Credit Card Service Fee for Student Account Payments – Effective July 1, 2025

Ann Booterbaugh, Assistant Controller

Apr 3, 2025

Greetings Mounties,

Due to new security regulations and the rising processing costs from credit card companies, Mount Aloysius College will institute the following new policies effective July 1, 2025.

A 2.95% service fee ($3 minimum) will be applied to all domestic credit/debit card payments for student account transactions. This includes payments for tuition, housing reservations and fines. This fee will be 4.25% for international card transactions.
The Business Office will no longer be able to process in-person or over the phone student account credit/debit card payments. Students will be required to make all student account credit/debit card payments online using the CashNet system via the MyMAC Portal page. A computer will be available in the Business Office for students who need assistance with processing payments online.

Ways to Avoid Paying the Service Fee

Mount Aloysius College will continue to offer alternative payment options without the service fee. You can pay by

ACH/Electronic Check (eCheck) via a personal checking or savings account via the CashNet system;
in person by check, money order, or cash; or,
mailing a check or money order to the Business Office:
Mount Aloysius College
Attn: Business Office
7373 Admiral Peary Hwy
Cresson, PA 16630

We are here to help, and encourage you to call, email, or stop by our office if you have any questions related to these changes.
