If this is your first time paying for your tuition fee at Landbank and you have no idea what in the world you're doing, I hope this article helps you. Well I am pretty sure you already know this but the first step is apparently enrolling online. I won't explain the process anymore because I don't know what procedures other universities follow, but from my university there's an instruction on the site so just in case I forgot how to enrol myself (which happens every term), I know I can always read the online enrolment procedures. Now, if you are too lazy to read, you always have your classmates to the rescue. You'll know that you have successfully done it when you click save and it shows the bank copy and order of payment voucher. Check if it has accurate information and print it out. For my case, I only need one sheet of bond paper and I print my voucher in landscape. It is divided into two parts. The first half is the bank copy and the other half is the order of payment. Now usually I will only need to use the bank copy if I enrol through Landbank, which means I could keep the order of payment voucher to myself. But some branches require both vouchers so I always bring both just in case. Well for other universities, maybe it's not exactly the same but the thought is just the same. Bring any voucher you need to present at the bank. It may be your registration form or whatever. You may also want to know when is the deadline of the payment. You don't want to be late because there will be additional fee. For us it's Php250 and it happened to me once when I was too lazy to go to the bank. Please don't be like me unless you're willing to pay for your laziness. Now once you have forced yourself to finally go to the bank, don't forget to bring your voucher and payment. Also, always bring an ID. Landbank doesn't really require it but you know, it is always good to be a boy/girl scout. You should also prepare Php25 for the additional bank service fee. When you're there, just act normal, as if you know what you're doing. Be confident, gurl. When a security guard asks what you're there for, just tell him you will pay for your tuition fee then flip your hair. There's this area inside where you can fill out forms and it's definitely overwhelming if this is your first time because there are lots of different kinds of forms. This is the form that you have to get. It is back-to-back but this is the part that you have to fill out.
For the date, write the exact date when you're actually paying. Then, put a check on "cash" as your mode of payment. Now for the account number, check your voucher or registration form. It is there and you just have to copy it. For the merchant/agency name, write the name of your university. It is okay to write the acronym if the name of your uni is too long and you're too tired to write it or if your handwriting is so big you're afraid it won't fit. For reference number 1, write your full name. Reference number two should include your course code, which you should also see on your voucher. Reference number three is your student number. The amount is the total amount of your tuition fee, that's without the bank service fee. Then, write the name and signature of whoever is paying. It could be you if you're personally paying or it could be your mom or any representative. Just bring an ID to be sure. Fill out three copies of the same form. One copy goes to Landbank and you could keep the other two as your official receipt. When you're done, go to the security guard near some kind of a machine. I have no idea what it's called. It ejects a number and you should keep that and wait until your number is called. There are TV screens that flash those numbers and that's where you could watch out if you're next. It also tells you which teller you should approach. When it's your turn, just present all the forms you filled out together with your voucher/registration form. The teller validates it and she signs/stamps your forms. Give your payment which includes the bank service fee. When it's done, she will return the two forms for you, and she will keep your voucher. As I have mentioned earlier, those forms will serve as your receipt. And that's it. You're done. Other people do not prefer this way of paying for tuition fees. Others have experienced paying through Landbank but when school year starts, they would learn they're still not officially enrolled. That is the reason why others would rather go to their university to pay there. I have never experienced any failed transaction for the last terms that I have been paying through the bank. I prefer it especially when I am on vacation. I would rather pay for the additional Php25 bank service fee than experience the hassle of commuting to uni with the expected long line of students paying at the cashier. It usually just takes me at least 15 minutes at the bank compared to a whole day at school.
