Washburn Tech offers educational opportunities that you cannot afford to miss. If you are just out of high school or an adult going back to school, you will find our tuition costs among the lowest in the state. We also offer a variety of financial aid options and scholarships.
Tuition and fees are established by the Washburn University Board of Regents and are subject to change by the Board of Regents.
Washburn Tech offers several options for the payment of student account balances. Accepted payment methods include cash, checks (made payable to Washburn Tech or electronic through WU-View), debit cards and credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express payments through WU-View only). Please note that daily transaction limits on your bank account may restrict the amount that can be paid when using a debit card, regardless of whether you are paying at the cashier window or online. In order to comply with Payment Card Industry (PCI) standards, no debit or credit card payments will be taken over the phone. Holds may not be immediately cleared after payments made via check or webcheck are received. So we can ensure the payment clears your bank, please allow a minimum of 7 days for the hold to be released. A $30 fee will be charged to the student account for each check (paper or electronic) returned for any reason.

For all students, tuition and fee charges must be paid, or a payment plan set up, by the published payment deadline in order to avoid a late fee. It is important to remember that, unlike many institutions, students are not dropped from classes for non-payment. No paper bills are sent, but electronic statements are sent to the Washburn email address of all students with a balance prior to the payment deadline and near the end of each month in the term. Copies of eBills (in PDF format) are available for students and authorized users in WU-View.
