Processing student account payments

Jan. 9, 2026

Does your department need to make a payment toward a student’s account? To ensure funds are applied accurately and on time, the UAF Bursar’s Office has streamlined the departmental payment process and created a webpage with payment instructions.

Key Steps for Departments:

• Documentation: Always include the student’s full name and UA ID number with any payment request.
• Payment Methods: Departments can process payments using a detail code or through specific scholarship award processes.
• Deadlines: Please submit your payment requests well in advance of tuition deadlines to help students avoid late fees or registration holds.

For a detailed step-by-step guide, information on where to send your request, please visit the Student Account Payment Information for Departments page.

If you have specific questions about a funds transfer, please contact the Office of the Bursar at uaf-accounts@alaska.edu. For Graduate Student Payments, please contact the UAF Graduate School at uaf-grad-school@alaska.edu.
