Introduction to CampusTuition
Late or lost payments can strangle budgets and sour parent relations. CampusTuition embeds a smart tuition payments system inside CampusOne’s university management software and college management software, giving finance teams real-time control over every fee, discount, and scholarship—all within a single campus ERP.
Pain Points Without CampusTuition
When tuition data lives in spreadsheets or aging accounting apps, invoices go out late, receipts vanish, and reconciliation drags into the next term. Families must queue on campus to pay, while staff re-key figures into separate ledgers—inviting errors that confuse auditors and frustrate students. Refunds take weeks, bursary allocations get lost, and leadership has no live cash-flow view. Without an integrated tuition records system in a modern campus management platform, universities risk ballooning receivables, brand damage, and compliance fines—especially as payment options multiply in the cloud-based education ERP era.
How CampusTuition Solves These Challenges
CampusTuition centralises every fee rule—per credit, lab, dorm, or meal-plan—inside a secure higher-education SaaS dashboard. Automated billing pulls real-time enrolment data from CampusStudents and instantly issues invoices through email, SMS, and the portal. Parents settle online via card, bank, or mobile money, with receipts syncing directly to CampusFinances. Built-in engines calculate scholarships and instalment plans, while role-based alerts flag overdue accounts. Because the tuition payments system sits inside your campus ERP, finance leaders see live cash projections and drill into ageing reports—transforming collections from reactive chasing into proactive strategy across the university management software suite.
