We just stopped accepting credit cards for full time students this
summer. Cold Turkey. We take checks or cash, and it actually went over
with little problem, once the parents understood the problem.
We are just starting to review other, low cost methods of receiving
payments, but we never felt the pressure of offering a third-party
credit card processor.
