OptomCAS Application Fees

Fees

OptomCAS charges $190 for the first program you apply to and $85 for each additional program.

Some programs may have an additional supplemental fee; contact your programs to learn if they require this and how to pay it.

Calculating Your Application Fee

You can preview your total application fee using the application fee calculator. If applicable, you can also see how your coupon codes affect your total payment.

To access the fee calculator, click the My Programs button in the top-right of the application, then click Calculate Fee. Then, select the programs and enter the coupon codes you want to include in your total fee calculation.

Coupon Codes

Some programs provide coupon codes that offset application fees. If you received a coupon code from your program, use the information below to apply it to your payment.

Note that you cannot redeem a program's coupon code after you submit your application to them. Additionally, if you miss a program deadline due to waiting for a coupon code, you must request a deadline extension from your program, not OptomCAS.

Using a Coupon Code

You can apply your coupon code(s) when you are ready to submit your application.

  1. Click My Programs in the top right of the application.
  2. Click the Submit Programs button.
  3. Review your program selections and click Continue.
  4. On the payment page, click the plus icon for Coupon Codes and enter the coupon code you received from the programs.
  5. Click Add.
  6. Complete the rest of the payment details pages.

Note the following:

  • When a coupon code equals the total transaction amount, you don't need to enter additional payment information.
  • When a coupon code is less than the total transaction amount, you'll need to enter payment information for the additional balance.
  • When a coupon code is more than the total transaction amount, you don't need to enter additional payment information. However, you'll forfeit the remaining balance offered by the coupon code, as OptomCAS will not issue credits or carry remaining balances forward.
  • A coupon code cannot be applied to chargeback fees.

If you used a coupon code when submitting to a program, the code will be listed under Payment History.
