Payment plans allow you to break down your balance into smaller payments throughout the semester. Payment due dates vary by plan and may be set up to withdraw automatically from your checking/savings account or credit card.

  • Plans are available for current semester fees only.
  • A $30 enrollment fee applies for each semester you enroll.
  • To maximize your number of payments, enroll before the semester begins.
  • All plan options require your current semester balance to be paid in full before the next semester begins.

Plan Examples:

  • Pay half of your balance up front and remaining balance mid-semester
  • Pay once a month with payment due date either mid-month or end of month
  • Pay every other week
