Payment Options

Using CSM's Tuition Payment Plan is simple. Just complete and sign our Automatic Tuition Payment Form. You may budget your tuition and fees in one of two ways:

Automatic Bank Payment: ACH payments ACH payments are those payments you have authorized FACTS to process directly with your financial institution. It is simply a bank-to-bank transfer of funds that you have pre-approved for your expenses at the College of Southern Maryland. Payments may be made from either your checking or savings account. Payments are processed on the 20th of each month and will continue until the balance due the college is paid in full.

Credit Card Option: Many students and families have requested the option of charging their monthly tuition payment to VISA or MasterCard. This enables you to take advantage of various bonus programs offered by your credit card company. If you elect to budget your expenses by using your credit card, it will be automatically charged on the 20th of each month. The payment amount is specified on the FACTS agreement and will continue until the balance due is paid in full. All credit cards will be processed by FACTS Card Services.


Completing the FACTS Agreement

When you submit the written agreement, be sure you have the following information:

  • Your student ID as assigned by CSM.

  • The name, address, and E-mail address of the person responsible for making the payments.

  • Account information for the responsible person. For example, if you are paying by automatic bank payments, you will need the bank name, telephone number, account number, and the bank routing number. Most of this information is located on your check. You will need to attach a voided check to the agreement; if you are paying by credit card, you will need the credit card number and the expiration date.
