For questions concerning different payment plans, contact Judy Burchfield at the Business Office.
Payment Plan A: The total is due for the semester may be paid in full on or before the first day of classes.
Deferred Payment Plans: Students also may select from payment plans that allow students and parents to pay tuition and fees over time, deferring some of the cost until later. A tuition contract is sent with the statement of tuition charges. It must be completed and returned by those who wish to participate in a deferred payment plan. There are two deferred payment plans.
Payment Plan B: 33 percent of total semester costs are due on August 1 (fall semester) The remaining total is payable in four payments of 17.2 percent each. Payments are due on the first day of the month for the remaining four months of the semester. For those beginning classes in January (spring semester), the first payment is due on December 17. An interest of 12 percent is charged.
Payment Plan C: The total for the semester is divided into five equal payments (20 percent of the total cost due in each payment) payable on the first day of each month beginning in July. For those who start classes in January, the first of the five monthly payments begin in December. No interest or fees.
