HERE IS A PROVEN PLAN
To help you meet your educational expenses, Sinclair Community College is proud to offer NBS as a convenient budget plan. This is not a loan program. You have no debt, there are no interest or finance charges assessed, and there is no credit check. The cost to budget your interest-free monthly payment plan is a $15.00 per quarter nonrefundable NBS Enrollment Fee.
Using NBS is simple. You must register online at http://FACTS.sinclair.edu. Additional information regarding online registration is provided in the "Convenient Online Enrollment" section. You may budget your tuition and fees one of two ways:
-
Automatic Bank Payment (ACH) – ACH payments are those payments you have authorized NBS to process directly with your financial institution. It is simply a bank-to-bank transfer of funds that you have preapproved for your expenses at Sinclair Community College. Payments may be made from either your checking or savings account. Payments are processed each month and will continue until the balance is paid in full. Please check your agreement for the payment deadline dates.
-
Credit Card Option – Paying with your credit card gives you the option of taking advantage of various bonus programs offered by your credit card company. Your monthly payment will be automatically charged to the credit card you designate. Payments will be charged each month until the balance is paid in full. If you wish to use this option, you may enroll by registering only through e-Cashier. Please check your agreement for the payment deadline dates.

CHANGES AND CANCELLATION OF PAYMENT PLAN
All changes to a payment plan must be made 5 days prior to the next scheduled payment date. Cancellation of the plan can be done if you pay in full at Sinclair Community College's Cashiers' window 5 days prior to the payment date, your balance is paid in full by Financial Aid, or you withdraw from classes prior to the 8th day of the term. If you are entitled to a refund it will follow Sinclair Community College's refund policy.
If your plan is cancelled, you must pay your balance in full directly to the College by the payment deadline published in the quarterly bulletin. You will remain responsible to NBS Management Company for the $15.00 enrollment fee and any $25 "missed payment" fees. Withdrawal from classes after the 8th day of the term does not terminate the plan. You will be responsible for making all scheduled tuition payments and any "missed payment" fees as described in the brochure.
INFORMATION ON MISSED PAYMENTS
Should an automatic bank payment or credit card payment be missed, a $25.00 NBS Missed Payment Fee will be automatically assessed to your account. You will be notified by NBS of the missed payment via mail or email.
