The university strongly recommends utilizing an electronic check as it is generally a faster, easier, and no cost to you form of payment. Electronic check and credit card payments will post to the account immediately. Be sure to check your account at that time to ensure the payment was applied. If not, please email Tri-Cities Cashier or call (509) 372-7498. ������ cannot accept payments over the phone.

Note: A 2.5% service fee will be charged for online transactions made with a MasterCard, Discover, Visa, or American Express credit card. Tuition and fee payments will be changed to a dual authorization model: payers will see two transactions post to their credit card; one for the payment of tuition/fees and one for the service fee (statement description will be labeled “Official Pymts Svc Fee”). The service fee of 2.5% is not refundable while the tuition/fees component would be refundable per authorization of overseeing ������ department/unit.
