CASHNet Monthly Payment Plan

Smith offers semester payment plans which allow students to pay their semester balance in four equal installments. Payments are due on the 10th of the month. You can sign up for a payment plan in CASHNet, Smith’s student billing system.

Automatic Recalculation of Installment Payments

Payment plan monthly installments will automatically recalculate to reflect any changes in charges or credits.

  • If a change occurs within 10 days of an upcoming installment due date, recalculation locks in the upcoming installment amount and will only spread the change over any remaining payments.
  • A notification of the change in monthly installments will be sent to the plan holder when recalculation occurs

Nonrefundable Fees

Domestic students (students from the U.S.) will be charged an administrative fee of $30 to sign up for the semester payment plan. International students are not charged a fee.

Late Fees

If enrolling late, all missed installments are required at the time of signup.

Late fees of 1.25 percent accrue on the student account for any unpaid portion of the monthly installment due if not paid by the due date. Plans will terminate after two unpaid installments. This financing option is extended as a courtesy by Smith College to our families. This courtesy may not be extended to a student in a future semester should a current plan terminate for nonpayment.

Smith offers one payment plan which allows students to pay their semester balance in four equal installments. Payments are due on the 10th of the month. To take advantage of a 5th installment, we recommend making a downpayment at the time of enrollment. For instance, students can make an initial payment on their balance before signing up for a payment plan. If the balance for the semester is $25,000, students can make an initial payment of $5,000 which reduces the balance to $20,000. They can then sign up for the payment plan and have four installments of $5,000 each.

Job Aids

Students can view job aids on the Workday Help site.

 

Individuals other than the student can sign up for the payment plan once that individual has been given access to the student’s CASHNet account.
