How to Make a Payment

You may pay for a class or workshop, or just make a payment on your student account, using any of the methods below.

Pay by Check or Money Order

We prefer payment by check or money order! When you pay with a check/money order, Birthingway receives your full payment and none of it is "eaten up" by credit card processing fees.

Mail or Bring Checks/Money Orders to:

Birthingway College of Midwifery
12113 SE Foster Road
Portland, Oregon 97266

If you are registering for a class or workshop, be sure to send both your payment AND the registration form - you are not officially registered for your class until we have both these items! If you're not registering for a class, it's helpful if you include a note telling us what you're paying for (i.e. "Jane Smith's Account"). 

If you would like to pay in cash, please come by the school - that way you can be sure your payment isn't lost in the mail!

Pay By Credit Card or Paypal

Although we prefer payments by cash or check/money order, if you need to pay with a credit card, you can do so through the link to Paypal below. (You don't need a Paypal account to make a payment.) When you pay through credit card/Paypal, a percentage is kept as a processing charge and lost to Birthingway.

You will need to determine your full payment amount (including classes, registration fees, textbooks, etc.) and enter it in the form on the Paypal website. If you are registering for a class or workshop, be sure to send both your payment AND the registration form - you are not officially registered for your class until we have both these items! It's helpful to us if you include details on what you're paying for in the "Item" field on Paypal's form (i.e. "Postpartum Doula workshop and textbooks"). The name on the credit card/Paypal account must be the same as the person taking the class or workshop. Sorry, no exceptions.

We're sorry, but due to the expense of "merchant" terminal credit card accounts and machines, we are only able to accept credit card payments through the Paypal website. This means we cannot take your credit card number and charge you, or process your credit card if you bring it to the school. Thanks for your understanding!
