Payment can be made using the online payment facility available on the student portal. This is the quickest and easiest way to pay.
EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer)
This involves the transfer of funds directly to the Trinity College bank account. Students should be aware that, due to lead time for funds to reach our bank account, it can take up to 10 days for these payments to be updated onto your account. Where payments must be made by a set deadline, you should factor in this lead time.
Enrolled students are billed by term. Students may view their account balance in Student Services Online (SSOL).
Payment for the term is due by the end of the University’s official Change of Program period, in accordance with the Academic Calendar.
Charges incurred throughout the term will be billed periodically and are due by the date listed on the Student Account Statement, available in SSOL. Payments are processed by Student Financial Services (SFS). Please visit the SFS website for specific information on payment options.
