Students can make payments by logging in to Student Self-Service via the Gateway and proxies can make payments through the Dickinson College Proxy Portal.

NOTE: Students must grant page authorizations to each proxy. The Statement and Payment History page is required to view billing statements, and the Account Summary page is required to make payments.

Visit our Proxy Access webpage for more details and frequently asked questions.

ACI Payments Inc.

You may make online credit/debit card or ACH (electronic bank draft) payments through our service provider ACI Payments Inc. You must provide the student’s name and Dickinson College student ID number when making a payment with ACI.

NOTE: After you click Confirm to process your online payment, you are redirected to the Dickinson College Web site. Within fifteen minutes, you will receive an email confirmation for the online payment. Please do not submit a second payment until you check your email for confirmation of the initial payment to avoid duplicate payments.

International Payments

Dickinson College accepts secure international payments through both Convera and Flywire. Utilizing either service, you can submit your payment securely, save money on bank wiring fees and lower currency exchange rates. Convera and Flywire have 24/7 customer service and online live chat to assist you through your payment processing. If you have any questions regarding these payment methods, email the Student Accounts Office.

Wire Transfers

Dickinson College accepts wire transfer payments. For wiring instructions send an email request to the Student Accounts Office.
