| Parent Information | Announcements | Parents/Family Remitting Payments: show/hide
| Madonna University is introducing a new online payment system. A new electronic check payment system (E-Check) will operate using newly acquired software. In addition, in order to better serve customers, the University has contracted with a third-party payment vendor to provide online credit card payment services to our customers. CASHNet® services colleges and universities across the country, offers online help, email assistance, electronic receipts and many other features and services that make the process of electronic payments as easy and convenient to use as possible.
|
| CreditCard Payments: show/hide
| In order to assure that information is both private and secure, a number of new procedures have been established. With the use of Madonna University ID# and Pin#, payments remitted on line are real time (recorded on the students’ record within moments of submission). As a result of the effort to protect the confidentiality and security of the student’s data and financial information as well as speed up the process of recording payments, the student may experience a few changes in how the university is processing on line payments, including credit cards.
|
| Real Time Payments for Parents & Family: show/hide
| For a payment to be real time the student must create a pin number for their parent in the CASHNet® system. With your parent number and the student’s ID #, the payment, either E-Check or Credit Card, will be applied instantly once the authorization process is completed. Once applied the funds cannot be refunded without first applying to the University Cashiers Office for a refund. The user will be warned if the payment is in the same amount as a previous payment and give the user the option of canceling to avoid making a duplicate payment. The new system also, enables authorized users to view a history record of all payments processed through the CASHNet system.
|
| Parent Payments Without Parent Pin Numbers: show/hide
| Parents may still remit payments on line without the use of a parent pin number. However, you will not see the name on the account, any balance due, nor past payment history. The payment will not be real time and an additional 48 hours will be required before payments are applied to the account. The additional time is needed for payments without pin because the payment must be updated manually.
|
| On-Line Credit Card Service Only: show/hide
| Payments by Credit Card may only be remitted on line. The Student Accounts office will no longer be able to process credit payments at the service window or over the phone.
|
| New Choices in Credit Cards: show/hide
| Madonna University now accepts American Express and Discover along with Master Card. The university NO longer accepts VISA Cards.
|
| Service Fee: show/hide
| Since Madonna University has outsourced the processing of credit cards, a service fee will be charged for the convenience of this electronic payment service through CASHNet as shown below:
2.9% for payment from $0.01 to $3,000.00
2.5% for every dollar over $3,000.01 |

| Kresge Foundation Challenges Madonna University with $1.5 Million show/hide
| In a generous endorsement of faith and trust in Madonna University, The Kresge Foundation has awarded us a $1.5 million challenge grant to support the new science and media building. To receive the grant, we must raise $3.25 million by January 1, 2010.
The Kresge Foundation challenge grant is a great way for you to leverage your gift, and moves us closer to our goal, and receipt of the additional $1.5 million. Whether it’s the police officer who helped you at the scene of an accident, the teacher who gave special attention to an autistic child, the nurse who held your loved one’s hand, or the interpreter who communicated your good news to a Deaf co-worker, Madonna University prepares students for careers that serve others. Funds from the Kresge Challenge Grant will ensure that the Madonna tradition of excellence continues for generations to come.
At nearly 60,000 square feet, this “green” building will provide the University’s growing science program with laboratories that exceed nationally recognized standards for higher education, along with state-of-the-art production facilities that meet the highly technical demands of the broadcast and cinema arts program. It is the first building in Livonia to be Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-certified by the U.S. Green Building Council.

Welcome to the Madonna University's Parents and Family Website!
Dear Parents and Family,
We are delighted you chose to visit the Parents and Family Web site of Madonna University and wish to convey our message of abiding concern for your daughter or son. Let me first state our intention to create on this campus an environment where teaching and learning are first and foremost the heart of the University. In the same breath, we want to inspire an environment, and even a culture of values which supports students for a lifetime. As a Catholic and Franciscan University, we espouse: a culture of concern and support: a respect for all persons a culture of success: joy in reaping the results of hard work a culture of service: an appreciation for sharing.
We also promote a respect for nature and all of our surroundings, while working to make the campus environment a model of peace with hopes that good habits will influence decisions for a more peaceful world. If you believe this is a healthy environment for your child, please encourage him or her to enroll and focus on completing a Madonna University degree.
We hope you enjoy visiting this site and recommend you become acquainted with all areas of the Madonna University Web site. Student success: Our greatest achievement! Sincerely,
Sister Rose Marie Kujawa, CSSF, Ph.D.
President |
