Trouble paying for school fees using WISE (school’s name in bankbook is allegedly in kanji)

Hey everyone

So after recently passing an interview for a 専門学校 I was about to pay the enrollment fee. That's to say, my parents were about to pay it.
Using WISE, we tried to do the transfer using exactly the information the school provided us with. But an issue came up: WISE doesn't allow kanji in the field for recipient's name. It asks for katakana-only. But the school claims that their name is in kanji. Writing it out in katakana or romaji yielded no results. Trying to transfer over SWIFT isn't an option either, since that has to be minimum 1.000.000¥ and we are talking about a mere 200.000.

So I'm kind of in a troubled situation here. I already asked the school for a prolongation of the deadline, but I don't think I can push this much further. Does anyone have an idea what I could do?
