PAYMENT PLAN

• You must sign up for a new payment plan each semester. Plans will not roll from semester to semester.
• Your account balance will be divided into monthly installment payments for the term. Credit cards or debit cards may be used. Other payment methods include electronic checks from checking/savings accounts.
• Plan Payments for the Fall will post on the 20^th of the month.
• Payment plans are subject to recalculation if any changes are made to your student account.  For example, if you lose a financial aid award and/or an additional charge is placed on your account, your future payments will automatically be adjusted to include the increased balance.  The same holds true for the opposite – that is, if your financial aid awards are increased or there has been a reduction of charges, your future payment plan amounts will reduce accordingly.
