Down Payment- Installment Plan

  1. Log into EZPay and navigate to the Installment Plan.
  2. Without making a payment, note the amount that EZPay requires for a down payment by writing it down on a paper or memorizing the amount.
  3. Make sure you include the $25.00 installment handling fee in the amount you write down.
    1. Don’t exclude the installment handling fee as it must be paid along with the down payment.
  4. Do not go any further in the set-up process for the installment plan in EZPay at this point.
  5. Log into Galaxy > Orion Student Center > Bursar Tile and navigate to the Flywire portal.
  6. Initiate a payment for the amount you had noted as the down payment required by EZPay for the down payment.
  7. Make sure that your bank transmits the amount to Flywire as quickly as they are able.
  8. Flywire will send you an email once your payment is received from your bank.
  9. UT Dallas considers your payment to be received when it is received by Flywire.
  10. Forward the email that you receive from Flywire to bursar@utdallas.edu (the email confirms that Flywire received your payment).
  11. Bursar will reply to the email that you send, informing you we have reviewed your record in Flywire.
  12. Bursar will let you know that your payment is considered to be on time and will give you more information about when UTD will be able to post the payment to your student account.
  13. Once UTD has posted the payment to your student account, you will then go back to Step 1 above and Complete the Sign-Up Process for the Installment Plan in EZPay; because, EZPay will consider that posted Flywire payment towards the down payment.

International Payments

UT Dallas only accepts international payments in one of two ways, none other; the two international payment methods are Demand Draft and Flywire.  These are the instructions for Flywire.

Bank details are not provided by fax, phone, email, nor other such means; for security reasons, we only accept international payments through Flywire. When you log into Galaxy and follow the instructions provided below, you will be given the opportunity to make payment in U.S. Dollars by selecting other currency; or, depending on your home country, you may have the option to use your home currency. If you select to pay in U.S. Dollars, you will be provided with the U.S. bank account details to make your U.S. Dollar payment to UT Dallas through our international payment processor, Flywire. Note, the bank account details you need for your bank are provided to you when you schedule the payment through our international payment processor, Flywire. Also, if your bank requires the official business agreement between UT Dallas and Flywire in order to complete the transfer, use the Help Feature in the Flywire site to ask the Flywire Support Team for the documents you need as each country may have their own specific documentation requirements.

  1. Log into Galaxy using your NetID and password.
  2. Under Orion Self-Service (Student), click on Orion Student Center.
  3. Click on Bursar Tile.
  4. Click on Payment Options.

  9. Payment instructions will be provided for you to complete your transfer.
  10. Check the status of your payment at any time.

Demand Draft

For demand draft, your bank must choose a bank branch that is located in The United States of America.  Most international banks have a working relationship with a bank branch that is located inside The United States of America that they can use.  You do not need to choose the bank branch located in the U.S. for your bank.  They will make that choice. 

Demand Draft Instructions 

You may submit a demand draft if it is made payable in U.S. Dollars, the demand draft must use the U.S. MICR system, drawn upon a U.S. bank branch of your home banking institution, and made in favour of The University of Texas at Dallas.  Note, you will know if your demand draft uses the U.S. MICR system by looking at the bottom of the check.  The bank account number and bank routing number will be printed on the bottom of the check.  If your demand draft does not have the MICR information, we may not be able to process the demand draft successfully; and, your payment may be significantly delayed.  On the demand draft, you should see a "Remitter:" or "Memo:" field.  The bank may use a similar word such as the two listed.  Write your full name and last-four of your UTD ID in that field.  If you do not see such a field, on the back of the check, in the upper-middle of the widest part of the check, you may write your full name and last-four of your UTD ID number. 

The UTD Bursar’s Office does not have in-person services; however, we do have a Drop-Box located in the Student Services Building, Floor 2, Room 2.300.  If you need to send the demand draft by international courier, this is the mailing address.

Richardson, TX 75080 

U.S.A.

Allow two to three weeks for arrival of the envelope to the UTD campus.  If possible, please send your demand draft by courier with at least two weeks of lead-time to allow your envelope to arrive in a timely manner.

For payments made through Flywire, allow five business days for your bank to transmit the funds timely.  Be mindful of any/all bank closures, delays, employee holidays, National Holidays, and any other unforeseen circumstances that may prevent your bank from transferring funds timely, such as, but not limited to, results of pandemic, weather, other circumstances beyond the control of the bank.
