Hello,
Helena College has their online application hosted through Fire Engine Red with application fees being collected through Montana Interactive. I’m not sure of the exact turn around on the payment from Montana Interactive to us, but I believe it is only a day or two. I know that the business office gets a list of payments from Montana Interactive on a daily basis.

Subject: Online Application for Admission
Hello,
We were using CollegeNET as our vendor for our online application for admission, but were told that we could no longer use them because of the gap between the amount of time the student pays the online application fee and the time we actually receive those funds from CollegeNET. There’s some sort of state law that says deposits must be made within a certain amount of time from when the student pays the fee, and CollegeNET is taking too long. However, I know we’re not the only college in the state that’s using a third-party vendor for the online application for admission.
Can you please tell me what vendor, if any, you use for your online application for admission? Did you have to make any special arrangements with your vendor to receive payment bi-weekly, instead of monthly?
Thanks!
Kathy
