Tuition Payment Information

We believe it offers our families a better solution to manage their tuition and O’Quinn payments. For example, you will be able to pay by check, credit card, or by debiting your checking or savings account, submit payment by mail, by phone or through a secure website or via mobile apps, set-up auto-bill options for checking/savings account payments, meaning you never have to worry about forgetting a bill and families with children at both O’Quinn and Porter-Gaud will be able to pay in one location.

Blackbaud - Smart Tuition/Tuition Management provides tuition management services for schools. Services for parents include online account access, tuition and fees invoicing, payment processing, and customer care.

On our parent website you can do the following:

• Make a payment
• Review payment history
• Change/edit your payment information
• Update your personal information
• View and print invoices (if you are not on automatic debit)
• See an itemized breakdown of tuition, fees and discounts billed to your account
• What credit cards does Smart Tuition/Tuition Management accept?

Smart Tuition/Tuition Management accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover credit and debit cards. Please note that a convenience fee may apply. You can use your credit card to make monthly recurring payments. Visa Checkout™ virtual wallet is also available.

Yes, you can utilize your bank’s online bill pay service to send payments to Smart Tuition/Tuition Management. However, there are a few things to note regarding online bill pay. Online bill pay might not electronically transfer funds to Smart Tuition/Tuition Management. Your bank may mail a paper check to Blackbaud. We advise you to set up your online bill pay to occur at least 7 days prior to your due date to ensure the check is received and processed by your scheduled due date.

Changes to banking information MUST be made at least three business days before your next scheduled debit. You can update your banking or recurring credit/debit card information by logging into your account at https://parent.smarttuition.com or you can call Blackbaud directly at (888) 868-8828.

We will be emailing you at the end of March/beginning of April your account information. 

You can update your password directly from your Smart Tuition/Tuition Management account at https://parent.smarttuition.com. Or you can call Blackbaud at (888) 868-8828 and a representative will be able to update your user name and password.

There is a 2.85% fee if you pay with a credit card. Check payments and ACH drafts have no fees. 

We do not at this time charge late fees.

Smart Tuition/Tuition Management does charge $30 for failed payments. This is a Smart Tuition/Tuition Management fee and not a school fee.

Supplement and Transition week sign ups will be completed on the website and payment will be required with the registration for those programs. These will not be billed using Smart Tuition/Tuition Management.

The Parent Help Center is available 24 hours per day. You can access your account to check balances and make payments. You can call the Blackbaud parent call center at (888) 868-8828 and they will be happy to assist you.
