Paying Your Bill

Students can access/view their eBill by logging into their myHeliotrope account, selecting the “Student Accounts” button and then “View my Semester eBill”.


Frequently Asked Questions

Fall Bills are due in August and Spring bills are due in January.  

All students will receive an automatic email notifying once the bill is available. Students will then be able to view the eBill online through their myHeliotrope account. We do not mail paper bills out.

Once the bills are released, students can sign up for payment plans and waive the medical insurance. Please review our Dates and Deadlines page for further important information.

Simply log on to myHeliotrope and you will find the “View my Semester eBill” box located in the Student Accounts tab. You will need to use your Purchase credentials to log in. Review, download, and save your eBill for future reference. You can also e-mail your eBill to your parent/guardian or to companies that need a copy of your semester charges such as college savings plans, military or employee benefits and private insurance proof of semester activity.

To waive the school’s health insurance, students must complete the online waiver with their current health insurance information.

To access the waiver form, the student should follow the steps below:

  • Log into myHeliotrope through the purple link on the right side of the www.purchase.edu/portal page.
  • Choose the “Student Account” box
  • Then, you will see the link that says “Health Insurance Waiver”; this is the link which will allow you to access the waiver form

From here, please follow the steps as they prompt you to complete the required documents in order to waive your Purchase College Health Insurance.

Important:

**Foreign Students must contact the Office for Global Education. You must provide proof of coverage on or before the deadlines indicated in your eBill. Providing your health insurance coverage is required every year to successfully waive the college coverage.
