NYMA accepts cash, check, PayPal (3% fee), credit card (3% fee) or wire transfer as payment methods. When paying by a check, please make it out to NYMA and write the cadet’s name and grade in the memo section.
All fees are due in full prior to the cadet’s arrival unless the monthly payment plan detailed below is selected. International families must pay in full 30 days prior to arrival.
Payment Plan Option: A monthly payment plan is available to non-international families. The monthly payment plan is comprised of 10 monthly installments from July 1, 2019 to April 1, 2020. After the first installment is paid to NYMA, the payment plan is administered by an outside provider, SMART Tuition Inc. There is a $1,200 fee for boarding cadets or $500 fee for day cadets to utilize the monthly payment plan.
Each cadet is required to make an incidentals deposit with the school, collected with the first payment. It will be used to offset cost for textbooks, testing fees, transportation, cadet store purchases, uniform replacement, or any additional charges listed in the financial contract. The incidentals deposit for domestic cadets is $500 and $1,500 for international cadets.
* Financial aid is available for qualifying candidates.
** For domestic cadets: Registration Fee is non-refundable. For international cadets: 85% of the Registration and International Fees will be refunded if visa application is rejected twice.
