Tuition Financing Options

We offer several tuition financing options, including direct payments, a monthly payment plan and federal student loans. You may also combine these options into a personalized financing solution that works for you.

Be sure to include the student's name and college ID on all forms of payment and correspondence.

Smith College accepts the following forms of direct payment:

Electronic Check (ACH)

Electronic check payments can be made using Smith’s billing system, CASHNet. Students access CASHNet through the Finances application on their Workday homepage. Other payers, who have been granted access by a student, can access CASHNet here.

For information on how to use CASHNet, students will find step-by-step job aids and video tutorials on the Workday Help site. We suggest you start with the Job Aid: Accessing CASHNet & CASHNet Overview. We also have step-by-step job aids and video tutorials available for payers. We suggest you start with the job aid Accessing CASHNet & CASHNet Overview - Payer.

Beginning August 1, 2022, you can use the Workday search functionality to look for help materials within Workday. The Workday Help site will still be active through the Fall 2022 semester as all of the job aids are moved into articles within Workday.
