Payment Plan FAQs

Is there a cost to use the payment plan?

There is a $25 enrollment fee for each term the payment plan is used. This is the only fee unless a payment is missed. There will be a $30 fee for missed payments. There may also be fees from your bank/credit card company for missed payments.

What happens if I miss a payment?

A $30 late fee will be assessed for each payment that is missed and/or late. If a payment is missed it is the student's responsibility to read the emails sent to them concerning any missed and/or late payment to know what action is needed to rectify the situation. Failure to do so may result in a hold placed on the student account and/ or possibly having courses removed from the schedule.

Do I have to sign up for a new plan each term?

Yes, it is necessary to sign up for a new payment plan any term you wish to use the plan.

How many payments will I have?

The number of payments varies. Earlier enrollment in the plan results in smaller payments spread out longer over the term.

What payment methods can I use?

Payment can be made through MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Discover, or electronic check.

If I change my schedule, do I need to make a new payment plan?

No, the payment plan will update automatically as your balance increases or decreases. (Note that balance increases within 10 days of the scheduled payment will not be included until the next month’s payment).

Can I change my payment date?

Payments are for a set date each month, and the date cannot be changed.

Can I make payments on my account throughout the term without setting up a payment plan?

The payment plan protects your classes from being deregistered (de-registered). Having an account balance without a payment plan can result in removal from your classes.

Is there a minimum balance I need to owe to sign up for a payment plan?

Your balance must be at least $125 to sign up for a payment plan.

Can the payment plan be used for books?

Payment plans are for tuition charges only. Books cannot be included.

How do I change my payment method?

Please be aware that this is a two-step process (adding new payment method and assigning new payment method).

1. You will need to log into your account and under “personal profile,” click on “payment profile.”
2. Next, enter the information for the new payment method and save it to your profile.
3. Then, look at your schedule of payments.
4. From there, you will need to assign your new method of payment to the scheduled payments by clicking on the gear next to the payment or click on “Update All Methods.” If this step is not completed, the remaining payments will not go toward the new payment method.
