Only the payment plan owner has the ability to add and change payment methods within the payment plan.

Flywire notifications are available to sign up for in the form of email or text message for both the student and the Authorized User. The student will receive Student Administrative email notifications regarding activity on the fee bill, regardless if they are the payment plan owner or not.

Requesting to become an Authorized User gives you access to make a payment and or enroll in a payment plan. Please note that in order to talk or email with the Bursar's Office, you will need to provide the student’s People Soft ID # and your FERPA pin number that the student created for you.

Instructions: Changing Payment Method in Payment Plan

Editing Installments

Once a student enrolls in a payment plan, we are unable to change the payment plan and installment dates. You have a 3-day grace period to manually remake the missed payment before being removed from the payment plan.

Once the payment plan is activated, we are unable to change the number of payment plan installments When activating a payment plan, you are agreeing to the terms such as all payment plan installments will be withdrawn on the 15th. The Bursar’s Office is unable to edit installment due dates. To avoid receiving a $30 Insufficient Fee by Flywire, please secure funds by the 14th the day before each installment due date (15th).

Cancelling/Voiding Installment Payments on the 15th & After

You are unable to void the payment on the installment due date of the 15th or after. Please plan accordingly and secure funds by the 14th for the installment to be withdrawn on the 15th. If you know in advance you will not have the funds due to an extenuating circumstances, you may remove the payment method or contact our office at bursar@uconn.edu to have payment plan cancelled, as we need that request in writing.

Cancel my Payment Plan

To cancel the payment plan, the payment plan owner MUST email in to the bursar@uconn.edu to request a cancellation of the plan. Once the plan is cancelled, the owner will receive an email from Flywire confirming the cancellation. Once the plan is cancelled, we will not be able to reinstate you into the payment plan for the term.

Penalties for Missed/ Failed Installment

If the student misses the automatic payment installment, the payment plan owner will receive a Flywire email notification regarding the missed installment and will need to manually resubmit the payment before being removed from the payment plan. If the payment is not manually resubmitted within 3 days, the payment plan owner will then receive an email notification confirming they were removed from the payment plan. The student will then be subject to Bursar Holds. All students who owe a past due balance are also subject to up to $300 in Late Fees.

Payment Plan Rebalancing

What is rebalancing?

Payment plans will be rebalanced nightly to reflect matching balances in both Flywire and Student Administration. Flywire offers real time balancing upon login.

  • Account balance increases- If your student account balance increases after the 5th of the month, your Payment Plan Balance will rebalance and increase for the following month’s installment.
  • Account balance decreases- If your student account decreases after the 5th of the month, your Payment Plan Balance will rebalance and decrease for your installment on the 15th of that same month.

 

Rebalancing schedule

The rebalancing process automatically subtracts anticipated financial aid displayed on the Account Summary and Account Activity tabs when it calculates your Payment Plan balance.  Please note that although automatic rebalancing does not happen daily, rest assured that your account will adjust correctly.

One-time Payments After Payment Plan has been Created

If a one-time payment is made by someone other than the payment plan owner, the remaining installments will rebalance. For example, scholarship payments received, paper checks mailed in, any financial aid applied to a student’s account and or online payments made by someone other than the payment plan owner.

 

Example #1:

Jonathan Husky enrolls in a 4-month payment plan for $10,000.  His payment plan installments are as follows:

  • $2,500 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 7/15
  • $2,500 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 8/15
  • $2,500 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 9/15
  • $2,500 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 10/15

 

Example #2:

Jonathan requests a 529 payment for $2,000 and on 7/10 the University receives the payment and posts to his fee bill.  This payment will not apply to the $2,500 installment on 7/15, rather the plan will rebalance to:

  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 7/15
  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 8/15
  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 9/15
  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 10/15

 

Example #3:

Jonathan Husky enrolls in a 3-month payment plan for $9,000.  His payment plan installments are as follows:

  • $3,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 7/15
  • $3,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 8/15
  • $3,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 9/15

 

Example #4:

Jonathan is the payment plan owner, but gives his mom, Tildy, Authorized User access to view his account and make payment.  Mom logs in on 7/14 and makes a $3,000 payment.  Because Tildy is not the owner of the payment plan, this is considered a one-time payment and does not go towards the 7/15 installment.  Instead, the plan will rebalance to:

  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 7/15
  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 8/15
  • $2,000 automatically deducted from the saved payment method on 9/15
