Mission Statement

It is the mission of the Bursar’s Office to safeguard the assets of the College while providing professional, courteous, and efficient service to student, parents, college personnel and external agencies and organizations. In this capacity, the Bursar's Office will adhere to all departmental, College, State, and Federal policies and procedures.

Our primary focus is upon customer service and fiscal responsibility.

• Provide convenient services to all college constituents
• Serve all customers with efficiency and respect 
• Implement payment polices that are reasonable and with consideration for revenue objectives
• Minimize delinquent, defaulted and uncollectible accounts

Philosophy

Our fiscal responsibility to the College necessitates a proactive approach to the collection of all outstanding indebtedness. By enrolling at Ramapo College, a student is accountable to pay all of the charges incurred for a given term by the published deadline. However, the Bursar’s Office makes every effort to accommodate families experiencing financial difficulties. Please communicate with the Bursar’s Office if there are extenuating circumstances that prevent you from paying your term bill on time.

It is imperative that all students and parents become familiar with our policies and procedures (available on this Website), as well as payment and financial deadlines. You should also familiarize yourself with the functions and policies of the Office of Financial Aid and the Office of Residence Life. The majority of problems that a student or parent encounters can be simply avoided by complying with established policies, procedures, and deadlines.

We trust that you or your child will have a very positive experience here at Ramapo College. If this office can be of assistance, please don't hesitate to call, write or e-mail your concerns.
