| What is it? | Who can use it? | What can I do there? |

| CAESAR is a self-service portal where financial functions (along with academic and enrollment functions) are performed. It is also the student gateway to some OWLS and QuikPAY® tasks. | Current Northwestern students | Billing and payment tasks: view my account, request a refund, update my
address, authorize a payment, view eBill and ePay (QuikPAY®) Financial aid tasks: apply for financial aid, accept an award, view to-do items Student loan tasks: apply for a loan (OWLS), view to-do items |
| QuikPAY® is a secure site for viewing eBills and making ePayments. | Northwestern students, parents, other authorized payers | View eBill, an electronic snapshot of your monthly account, and use ePay to make electronic payments from a savings or checking account |
| OWLS is a utility for step-by-step preparation of NU Loan or Endowed Loan applications. | Northwestern students, authorized co-makers | Apply for a loan, complete part of an existing loan application, check on the status of your loan application |
