General Information

Tuition & Fees Installment Policy - Fall 2009

  1. Tuition and fees may be paid by one of two methods during the fall and spring semesters.
    1. Full payment before applicable due date (found below) or
    2. Three payments; one half payment before applicable due date and one
      fourth before sixth and eleventh class week(s). The installment payment option
      (3 payments) is not available during the summer semesters.

  2. If applicable, the student's account will be reduced by any financial aid, tuition waivers, grants, or deferments awarded.  The students may then elect to pay this net amount on the installment plan.
     
  3. The parking permit and general property deposit are to be paid in full and are not applicable to the installment plan.
     
  4. Students who elect to pay their tuition on installments will be assessed a $30 installment fee. The second and third installment payments will each reflect $15 of the installment fee.
     
  5. Students may pay their installment payments before the actual due date.  Students on the installment plan who pay their account in full prior to the first class day will have the installment fee waived from their account. Installment fees are not waived if the account is paid off on the first class day or any time afterwards.
     
  6. PAYMENT IN FULL IS DUE IN THE CASHIERS OFFICE BY 4:00 PM ON THE APPROPRIATE DUE DATE  (SEE DUE DATES)

    Fall 2009 Due Dates:
    To avoid loss of student's schedule, the initial installment payment should be received in the Cashiers Office by 4 p.m. on August 7, 2009 for fall advance registration, August 21, 2009 for fall regular registration, and August 31, 2009 for fall late registration. The second and third installment payments for fall 2009 are due September 25, 2009 and October 30, 2009.
    Late charges are assessed on the second and third installment payment if received after the above applicable due dates.  Late fees are $15 for tuition and fees, $10 for housing, and $10 for dining. 

     For each returned check, a $25.00 fee will be added to the student's account.

    STATUTORY WARNING:  A STUDENT WHO FAILS TO MAKE FULL PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES, INCLUDING ANY INCIDENTAL FEES, BY THE DUE DATE MAY BE PROHIBITED FROM REGISTERING FOR CLASSES UNTIL FULL PAYMENT IS MADE.  A STUDENT WHO FAILS TO MAKE PAYMENT PRIOR TO THE END OF THE SEMESTER MAY BE DENIED CREDIT FOR THE WORK DONE THAT SEMESTER.
     
  7. Students who withdraw from all their classes after a payment has been made on their account for that semester's tuition and fees will be required to officially resign through the Registrar's Office and may be liable for full tuition and fees depending upon the official date of resignation.
     
  8. Room and board payment due dates are the same as the tuition installment due dates.
     
  9. A student's grades will not be released until all installments and other charges have been paid.

  10. If amounts become past due, the University reserves the right to report the account to the Credit Bureau.  This will also initiate internal collection efforts and could cause the University to employ an outside collection agency to recover the debt.  If any collection efforts must be made, the student will be required to pay all collection costs, including collection agency fees, legal fees, and other costs incurred in collecting the amounts due.
