NYIT Electronic Billing Frequently Asked Questions
What is Electronic Billing?
Electronic billing enables you to review your NYIT tuition statement online.
Each time a bill is available, an e-mail will be sent to your official NYIT e-mail address.
How do Students view their e-bill?
Students will access their e-bill via NYITConnect. Once on the NYITConnect page, the student will click the "EBills, IRS Forms 1098T, Refunds" link, and then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "Click Here to Access the Student Portal to View EBills, IRS 1098T Forms, Refunds" link.
NOTE: This is the same portal you have been accessing to receive your tax forms.

- Once students are logged onto the e-bill Web site, they can select the "my profile" tab and then click the "invite other payer" button.
- Enter your parents' e-mail addresses.
- Parents will then receive an e-mail invitation with instructions on how to set up their own individual e-bill-with a Login name and Password.

Why are paper bills being replaced?
NYIT has decided to implement e-billing to enhance student customer service. It provides both students and parents a fast and efficient way to view their monthly billing statement online. E-mail and Web based services have become primary ways to communicate on campus and throughout the world. Electronic billing continues this initiative with the Web culture with which students have become accustomed. Students already have the ability to view up to the minute transactions regarding their account by visiting NYITConnect, logging into their student account, and selecting the account summary by term option. Now, with e-billing, anyone the student designates can also have the convenience of viewing the student's monthly billing statement online.
Do I have to be on e-billing?
Yes, NYIT has designated electronic billing as the official means of generating tuition bills. Paper statements will no longer be mailed as of February 2009. Each time a bill is available, an e-mail will be sent to your official NYIT e-mail address. It will also be sent to a secondary e-mail address, if you have provided one once you have logged into the portal.
- You can print a copy of your e-bill easily using their personal computer. Students may also use the NYIT Computers located around campus.
- The Print E-bill icon is located in the middle section on the e-bill.
- For a printer friendly PDF e-bill version, scroll down to the bottom of the e-bill and click "Printable Version of E-bill".
How do I save a copy of my e-bill and send it as an e-mail attachment to my parent?
Your e-bill will be available online for 12 months. However, if you would like to SAVE A COPY onto your computer, follow these steps:
- Scroll down to the bottom of the e-bill and click Printable Version of E-bill.
- At the top of the page from your PDF reader program, select "FILE" in the list of menu options, then click "SAVE AS".
- Click the "SAVE IN" arrow to find the drive or folder on your local machine where you want to save the file, and finally type the new name in the "FILE NAME" box and click "SAVE".
To send as an e-mail attachment:
In your e-mail, select "compose" or "write" an e-mail.
- In the "TO" box, type the e-mail address of the person to receive the e-bill.
- Click the

If I make a payment, can I view it on my electronic bill immediately?
No, because the electronic bill is a monthly billing statement. Payments made to your account will be reflected on your next electronic bill if you still have an outstanding balance. However, students can verify payments posted in real-time by logging into their student account at NYITConnect, and then selecting the "Account Summary" by term option.
