Please note, the date of the month you enroll in the payment plan will determine if your plan with have 5, 4 or 3 payments. During the enrollment period, if you enroll on the 14th of the month for the Fall or Spring payment plan, or the 24th for the Summer plan, that month will be included in your installment plan.  If you enroll on the 15th  of the month for Fall or Spring, or the 25th for the Summer plan, that month will not be included.  For example, if you sign up on 7/14 you will have 5 installments with the due dates of 7/15, 8/15, 9/15, 10/15 and 11/15, but if sign up on 7/15, your plan will be reduced to 4 installments that will be due on 8/15, 9/15, 10/15, and 11/15.

The Payment plan amount is determined by the following:

  • Balance of Tuition and Fees minus anticipated Financial Aid*

  • If new charges are applied to your account or additional aid is received, the amount is spread out over your remaining plan payments.

  • A $10.00 late fee will be assessed monthly for any missed payments not made within 3 days of the due date.

  • After two late payments, you may be subject to an additional $100 late fee from the University and a billing restriction may be placed on your account (preventing you from registering for future classes and ordering official transcripts).

* Changes to your enrollment status may affect your financial aid amounts.  Please contact the Financial Aid office if you have any questions.
