https://www.mga.edu/bursar/tuition-fees/graduate-tuition-fees.php
Tuition and fee* payments may be made at physical campus locations by cash, check or money order only. No credit cards are accepted for tuition at the campus locations.
*Excluding the graduate studies application fee, which must be made through the link on the Admissions page.
Payments may be made online by logging into the SWORDS account on the MGA website. Online payment options are as follows:
- Credit Cards – a 2.9% convenience fee will be added for using a credit card. VISA, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express will be accepted for online payment.
- HigherOne One Account – no convenience fee will be added when using your HigherOne One Account.
- E-check (electronic check) – no convenience fee will be added when paying by e-check, but you will need your bank routing number and your account number.
Important Note: Payments for miscellaneous fines or fees (library fines, parking fines, graduation applications, etc.) can still be made at the Macon, Cochran, Dublin, Eastman and Warner Robins campus payment locations with a credit card (MasterCard, Discover, American Express or VISA will be accepted and no convenience fee will be added), as well as with a check or cash. Cash, check or money order only will be accepted at the Robins Resident Center.
A student attending classes who has not completed registration with the Bursar’s Office through payment of tuition and fees will be held liable for the total due plus any service fees assessed, applicable collection costs, court costs, and legal fees associated with collection efforts. A "hold" will be placed on the record of any student who has a financial obligation to the University and will remain on the student's record until the obligation is settled. This "hold" prevents a student from registering for additional classes, from graduating, and from obtaining grades and transcripts.
Persons who have checks returned by a bank for any reason must promptly settle that obligation with the University, along with a $30 returned item fee that is assessed. Failure to do so will be considered nonpayment of tuition and fees. The University reserves the right to void a student's registration for nonpayment of tuition and fees at any time during the academic term. The University also reserves the right to place students on "cash only" status for writing checks that are not honored by a bank.
It is the responsibility of all MGA students to be informed of, and to observe all regulations and procedures regarding the payment of tuition and fees and the entitlement of refunds. In no case will a regulation be waived or an exception granted because a student pleads ignorance of the regulation or asserts that he/she was not informed of the regulation by an advisor or other authority. Verbal misinformation is not grounds for waiver of a regulation. All questions concerning tuition and fees and refunds should be directed to the Bursar’s Office.
