  2. Click Make a payment.
  3. On the home page under “My Profile Setup,” click on “Authorized User” at the top right of the page and follow the instructions.

Payment by electronic check is available at no additional charge. You may continue to send checks directly to the Office of Student Accounts, although we encourage you to take advantage of these online services.

Warning! All returned payments will result in a $30.00 returned payment fee added to the student account balance.

Online credit card payments will be accepted through PayPath on the College’s behalf. As part of this service, PayPath will add a 2.95% service fee to the total payment. For example, if a $1,000 payment is being made on a student’s account, the total amount charged to the credit card will be $1,029.50. Grinnell College will receive only the $1,000 owed for student charges. PayPath accepts MasterCard, American Express, Visa, and Discover. 

You can add funds to the Pioneer One-Card (Campus Cash) at no additional charge using a credit card.
