Payment Plan Options
The Western Connecticut State University realizes that managing the cost of education is a challenge for many families. To help you meet your educational expenses, WCSU has partnered with Touchnet to offer you a low cost payment option. The cost to enroll in the Touchnet online payment plan is $35 per semester and there are no interest or finance charges.
