Making Payments
After your child has been officially accepted at BVWS, you will have the opportunity to review the annual contract. The tuition and fees are detailed on the final page, the Contract Amount Worksheet . You have 3 options for a typical payment plan: one-pay, two pay or monthly. Enrollment deposit of $1500 or $900 (a down payment of tuition) will be due at time of enrollment (by check or PayPal) and the balance of tuition and annual $900 fees will be set up in our Blackbaud/Smart Tuition invoicing system based on your particular enrollment contract.

You can update your password directly from your Blackbaud account at https://parent.blackbaud.school/Login.aspx or you can call us at (888) 868-8828 and a representative will be able to update your username and password.
I am currently setup to pay automatically each month, but I need to setup new banking information. How can I go about doing that?
Changes to banking information MUST be made at least three business days before your next scheduled debit. You can update your banking information within your Blackbaud account or you can call us directly at the parent help center.
Why is my monthly amount different?
Your total due may change each month due to fees, discounts, and adjustments to tuition that have been made by your school.
I just realized my tuition is due in less than two days. What is the quickest way to make a payment?
Blackbaud offers a couple of immediate payment options.
1. Pay online at https://parent.blackbaud.school/Login.aspx
2. Over the phone 24/7, 365 days a year, by calling (888) 868-8828
Note: Payments made by phone and web are posted the same day they are received.
Can I pay using my bank's online bill pay service?
Yes, you can utilize your bank’s online bill pay service to send payments to Blackbaud. However, there are a few things to note regarding online bill pay. Online bill pay services do NOT electronically transfer funds to Blackbaud. Your bank will actually mail a check to Blackbaud. Because of this, we advise that you set up your online bill pay to occur at least 7 days prior to your due date to ensure the check is received by Blackbaud before the due date.
What is my school's late payment policy?
If your payment is not made by your due date or you are carrying an outstanding balance, a late fee may apply. Blackbaud will remind you of your upcoming payment to help you pay on time. We will also advise you when you have missed a payment to help you catch up and avoid future fees.
Are there bank fees associated with payments that are not successful?
A fee of $30 will be applied to your account for any failed payment processed via auto-debit, phone, web, and for failed check payments. Your bank may impose additional fees.
