FAQ: Payment Options, Self-Service and Credit Card Fees

Each student that attends Saint Xavier University will have an account with the Office of Student Accounts. This student account will include charges/payments for tuition and fees, housing and food, and other charges, as applicable. All of the charges will be billed using our e-Bill process.

Convenient and reliable alternative to paper bills. You also have the ability to give access to authorized users to view your bill and make payment. There are several reasons why Self-Service is the official billing method at Saint Xavier University. The primary reason is to provide faster, easier and accurate service to our students and their parents or guardians. The vast majority of students and parents are familiar and comfortable with the web culture. It has become commonplace to perform many daily transactions and communications via email and the Internet. Many universities and institutions around the country are using electronic billing as their primary method of billing. In addition to providing more efficient service, electronic billing also results in time and monetary savings to both the student and the institution. As a highly respected institution, Saint Xavier University strives to provide services electronically.

All enrolled students can view their bill and make a payment on mySXU and go to Self-Service to print a copy of your bill.

A person other than the student may have the ability to view the Self-Service option as an authorized user.
