BILLING AND PAYMENT INFORMATION

Emory will bill you electronically at the beginning of each term. In order to view the amount you owe based on your payment plan and your financial aid, please refer to your OPUS account. OPUS is the University's system for viewing grades, viewing your billing account, and changing your address. Steps for viewing billing information:

Within approximately two weeks after being accepted to Goizueta, you should have an OPUS account. To get your OPUS ID and password, you will go to the WEMBA Net Center page at www.bus.emory.edu/EMBA -- this is the launch site for all information you will need as an accepted student to this program. The home page there will give you instructions for obtaining your First Class e-mail account as well as your OPUS account by entering your name and social security number (SSN). For international students, a SSN will be provided to you by Emory University. The WEMBA program director can assist you with this.

You may log into OPUS directly from the WEMBA Net Center page (see the OPUS tab) or you may go directly to www.emory.edu and in the bottom left corner, you will see 'Log in to OPUS'. The OPUS system is where you will go to receive information about your account. The tuition amounts due at each interval, as shown under the payment plans just outlined, may come from various sources including your financial aid should you apply for these aid funds. By logging into OPUS, you will be able to view whether your financial aid money has hit your account. Based on the aid you receive, your total balance that you owe, once the aid has reached your account, will be calculated and displayed.

Your tuition will be due in full before the start of the semester. For example, the due date is August 15 for the fall term UNLESS you plan to use one of the various payment plans as outlined in the "Payment Plans" section of this website. If you intend to use one of the above payment plans, you need to complete the appropriate items, as outlined previously in the payment plan description, to arrive by the tution due date (August 15 in the above example) to the location specified by each plan.

To continue with this example, on August 15, the University expects your tuition to have been paid in full unless it has a promissory note on file indicating you are using one of the payment plans. If August 15 arrives and they do not have a promissory note nor payment, your standing will be in jeopardy. The Bursar will contact the student directly to ask about payment. At the end of August, finance charges will begin to accrue. For students that are admitted or accept admittance into our program after August 15, your tuition will be due immediately. By going on the Installment Payment Plan or the Deferred Payment Plan, you can defer your first payment until October of the same term or February of the following term, respectively, until aid or other funds become available to you.

Therefore, you do need to decide before August 15 if you intend to use one of these payment plans. Again, if you are accepted later than August 15, we will work with you on a case-by-case basis.

Please keep in mind that the Deferred Payment Plan is on a term-by-term basis. You need to complete and mail in a new promisory note and a new check in the amount of $40 for the appropriate application fee amount each term.

Checks should be made payable to Emory University. The Office of the Bursar does not accept credit cards. Please mail your tuition to:

Third Party Billing
If a third party (i.e., outside scholarships, sponsoring company) will pay all or part of your tuition and fees, and the third party requires a bill mailed directly from the Student Financial Services Office, a written request must be received from the third party 21 days prior to the payment due date (i.e. 21 days prior to August 15 for the fall term). Third party billing is used with the pay in full, option one above, and cannot be combined with the other payment plans. This authorization should include the organization's name and address, the amount that will be paid, and a contact person's name and telephone.
