Online Check Payment
This is the preferred method of payment. Online check payments are completed using the e-Bill suite at http://go.lehigh.edu/ebill by either the student or authorized user. There is a $35 fee for any Echeck returned by the bank for reasons including but not limited to non-sufficient funds or account closed.
When making a ACH payment in the eBill Suite, please note that the bank routing number and account number will be validated if your bank participates in ACH validation. You can use any personal checking or savings account. Do not enter other accounts, such as corporate account numbers, 529 accounts, credit cards, home equity, or traveler's checks. Do not enter debit card numbers. Instead, enter the complete routing number and bank account number as found on a personal check.
If you are making your payment using a new bank account, validation may fail due to a delay in updates to the Validation Services. Please attempt your payment validation again in 7-10 business days. Or contact the Bursar's office and provide us with a voided check so that we can have your account whitelisted.
Lehigh University reserves the right to restrict use of online check payments in the event that a student account has had four returned Echecks.
