Payment Options

Information as of the 2007-2008 Academic Year

The university is pleased to announce that it is one of the few universities in the country that allows students to attend classes before their initial tuition and fee payment must be made.   There are three payment options available.

Standard Payment Plan:

The entire balance is due in full by the statement due date.  If full payment is not received by the due date a FINANCE CHARGE of 1.1% per month (13.2 ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE) is incurred on the balance due and the account will be handled as a delinquent account.  This payment plan is the only plan available for certain university programs.

A STUDENT PAYMENT AGREEMENT and DISCLOSURE STATEMENT is required to be completed as part of the admissions process.  Contact the Business Office for additional information.

Extended Payment Plan:

  Fall Spring Summer
First payment: 1/4 of the account balance by Sept. 19th Feb. 19th  
First payment: 1/3 of the account balance by     June 19th
Second payment: 1/3 of the account balance by Oct. 19th March 19th  
Second payment: 1/2 of the account balance by     July 19th
Third payment: 1/2 of the account balance by Nov. 19th April 19th  
Third payment: all remaining balance by     August 19th
Fourth payment: all remaining balance by Dec. 19th May 19th  

      

If a student elects to make payments over the term of the semester a FINANCE CHARGE of 1.1% per month (13.2% ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE) is assessed on the monthly unpaid balance. The university is pleased to report that this is lower than most credit card rates.

A STUDENT PAYMENT AGREEMENT and DISCLOSURE STATEMENT is required to be completed as part of the admissions process. Contact the Business Office for additional information.

End of Term Payment Plan:

The university recognizes that many employers reimburse their employees for tuition and fees at the end of the semester. The End of Term payment plan is available to students that do not receive financial aid, and whose employer reimburses him/her for at least 50% of the tuition balance based on receipt of a grade report for the corresponding term.

Under this plan, no tuition payment is required until the end of the term (see the schedule below for specific due dates). The student will incur a 1.1% FINANCE CHARGE each month on the unpaid balance throughout the semester.  As mentioned above, this rate is lower than most credit card rates. To avoid this finance charge, the student may pay the full balance at the beginning of the term.

The payment schedule under this plan is as follows:

  Fall Spring Summer
Full payment is due  Feb. 19th July 19th Sept. 19th
To avoid a finance charge, full payment is due  Sept. 19th Feb. 19th June 19th
