Why is Concordia University charging a convenience fee for the use of my credit card?
While credit card payments offer a convenient manner for students and parents to make payments on their student accounts, the cost to Concordia University for providing this convenience has grown to more than $40,000 annually. The Board of Regents has decided to require those who want the convenience of paying with a credit card to cover the merchant fees that are charged to Concordia University by the credit card companies.
