## **Student How-To:**

### **Create a Payment Profile**

Creating a Payment Profile allows you to securely enter your U.S. checking or savings account information and save it to use whenever you need to make a payment. You can create a separate payment profile for each of your bank accounts.

 ![Select Manage Bank Accounts from submenu](/sites/g/files/omnuum10921/files/2026-04/Student_create%20payment%20profile_1.jpg)

 

 ![Select Manage Bank Accounts from Manage Student Account at bottom of page](/sites/g/files/omnuum10921/files/2026-04/Student_create%20payment%20profile_2.jpg)

 

 ![Click on plus sign in Payment Profile section](/sites/g/files/omnuum10921/files/2026-04/Student_create%20payment%20profile_3.jpg)

 

 ![Fill out Payment Profile form and click Save](/sites/g/files/omnuum10921/files/2026-04/Student_create%20payment%20profile_4.jpg)

 

\*Unfortunately, no brokerage, investment, or money market accounts can be used. If you are not sure whether your account can be debited via ACH, please contact your financial institution before making the payment.

### **Make a Payment**

Process an electronic transfer of funds (ACH) from your U.S. checking or savings account to immediately cover charges due on your student account. You can also initiate a wire transfer through a third party or mail a check, although these options will take longer.
