Credit cards accepted by the University are MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express. International travelers checks in U.S. dollars are acceptable. If you wire money ahead, you may have a refund of any cash remaining after fee payment with one day's notice. If you mail a bank draft or check at least 60 days in advance, it should have cleared the banking system in time to give you a refund of any remaining cash with one day's notice. Credit cards are a convenient way to handle these expenses.
Travelers checks are also acceptable.
If you bring a draft or check with you, you will need to wait 30 to 60 days for the funds to be available to you. This is the time it will take for the check to be cleared through the banking system. A refund of any remaining cash can be made to you only after your check or draft has cleared.
