Tuition Payment Plan

How does it work?

The Tuition payment plan option allows students to pay their quarterly tuition in three installments. The amount of each installment is determined by the student and should be calculated based on the total tuition balance that remains outstanding. The total of the three installments should equal the total tuition the student account has outstanding.

A $10 fee is assessed at the time of enrollment. All installments must be received prior to the posted due dates to avoid administrative holds and or late fees.

Who is eligible?

A Tuition Payment Plan is an option available to all students who opt to enroll in a payment plan prior to the posted enrollment deadline for the quarter in question.

Upcoming deadlines for the Tuition Payment Plan are listed below. Please note that the first payment, accompanied by the payment plan enrollment form, is due either in person or via the drop box, to be paid by check, money order/cashier's check, or cash only, no later than the first payment due date listed for the quarter (bolded date below):
