Payment Information
Semester tuition and fees are payable on or before registration payment deadlines as published for each semester. A student’s registration process is not complete until payment is made in full. It is the student's responsibility to see that his or her tuition and fees are paid even if the funds are provided by financial aid, scholarship, or some other source.
Checks should be made payable to Clayton State University for the exact amount of the required tuition and fees. During the normal registration period, the University accepts payment online or in person by VISA, Discover, and MasterCard subject to validation and approval. (Payment of fees may not be deferred).
Payment Methods
Cash, checks, credit cards, money orders, cashier checks, and debit cards. Effective July 1, 2017 we will no longer accept American Express. We do not take payments over the phone, we require an authorized signature. Preferred method of payment is through the D.U.C.K. (Digital Unified Campus Kiosk) using your debit or credit card. If by mail, send checks, money orders, and cashier checks payable to Clayton State University to Edgewater Hall, 2000 Clayton State Boulevard, Morrow, Georgia 30260, Attention: Bursar's Office.
