Wire Transfer
At The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV), we understand that international students often face high transfer fees and complex processes when paying tuition and related expenses. To help ease this burden, UTRGV has partnered with TransferMate and PayMyTuition to offer secure, streamlined payment options directly through your student account.
These services allow international students to pay tuition and fees in their local currency from virtually any country, often with lower bank fees and better exchange rates. Both platforms are designed to improve the overall payment experience by offering faster processing times, enhanced security, and full transparency.
TransferMate enables international and domestic wire transfers. Please note that a $20 USD fee applies to all USD-to-USD domestic wire transfers made through TransferMate.
PayMyTuition provides similar benefits and may offer additional payment methods depending on your country of origin, including bank transfers, credit/debit card payments, and alternative local payment options.
By offering multiple international payment solutions, UTRGV is committed to making tuition payments more accessible and affordable for our global student community.
