Payment Options
We realize that meeting the expense of a college education is one of the larger investments made by most families. For this reason, we have developed two methods of payment for comprehensive fee charges. Students may choose:

A quarterly payment plan in which they pay in advance for the upcoming academic quarter.
A 10, 11 or 12-month payment plan which spreads the cost of the entire academic year over 10, 11 or 12 monthly payments. This plan does not charge interest and will permit you to program college costs into your family's monthly budget. Contact the Business Office with questions.
