Although we still accept paper checks, we encourage families to pay by eCheck (no fees apply and there are no postage costs) via the Student Account Center. All checks must be drawn from a U.S. Bank and be payable in U.S. dollars to Brandeis University. Personal or 529 Plan checks (mailed by First Class Mail only) should include the student's name and 8-digit sage ID and can be sent to our bank's payment processing center at:
Brandeis University

Correspondence, third party checks and Priority Mail, Express Mail, FedEx, UPS, or other courier mail, should not be sent to the New York address. 529 Plans Payments can not be used towards monthly payment plans. 529 Plan withdrawals should sent to Brandeis as a one-time semester payment by the published semester due date. If the 529 Plan payment does not cover the semester balance in full, any remaining balance may be budgeted on a monthly payment plan.
