ODU accepts most credit cards (American Express, Visa, MasterCard & Discover). For non-credit offerings, credit cards can only be accepted online through our registration system, MonarchCE. Once payment is successfully completed, you will receive payment verification and a registration confirmation by email.
Checks are accepted when payment is made by mail through the School of Continuing Education.
Many employers offer tuition assistance (TA) in their employee benefits package. If you are not familiar with your company's policies regarding TA, you should talk to your Human Resources Department. To use tuition assistance at ODU, your company should submit a memo on company letterhead stating that the company accepts the financial debt of the tuition. Please make sure the memo lists the course name, tuition amount and the student name. Submit this memo to the School of Continuing Education.
