International Wire Transfers

International Payments through TRAVELEX

Ball State University works with Travelex to give you easier payment options than wire transfer.  Travelex has competitive exchange rates and low fees for payments in many international currencies. Follow the information below to make a payment or see a list of currencies accepted by Travelex. 

You are only allowed to transfer enough money to pay the current semester charges for Tuition and University Housing charges.  Living and other expenses should be wired to the student’s personal bank account and not through the University.

• Select Travelex Bank to Bank Transfer to begin the process.  You will need to have the student’s name, email address, and Ball State ID number. 
• Enter the US dollar amount of the payment.  Select the payment currency or country that you will make your payment from.
• You will see a “real time” exchange rate for your currency. You can see the bill in your currency before you make the payment.
• Follow the instructions on the webpage to complete the payment.
• Print the confirmation page and take it to your local bank to start the transfer of funds to Travelex.  Please note that the currency quote on the confirmation page is valid for 72 hours. Travelex must receive the request within 72 hours of your receipt of the currency quote.
• Travelex will make the payment in US dollars to Ball State University.

If you have paid your account through Travelex and then cancel your registration, we will ask you for bank account information to return the money by wire transfer.  Wire transfer costs will be deducted from your refund.
