The deferred payment plan is available to allow students to pay their registration fee in installments. The plan does not apply to books or to noncredit classes and is available for the fall and spring semesters only . All students in good financial standing are eligible to participate in the deferred payment plan for their registration fees (does not include the application fee).
The plan requires a 50% down payment plus a $25.00 administrative fee and two additional 25% installment payments.
Students who fail to pay the 50% down payment will be deleted from the class rolls . For students who fail to pay their second or third installments, records will be held, late penalties apply, and other collection efforts will be pursued; however, the student will not be deleted from the class rolls.
Withdrawal from classes does not forgive any remaining balance due . Refunds for students on the deferred payment plan are calculated based on the total fees assessed the student (not just the portion of the fees actually paid). Then total fees assessed are reduced by the amount the student has paid and the refund credit. If the student has an overall credit balance, that amount will be refunded to the student. PLEASE NOTE, THE REFUND IS NOT CALCULATED ON THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID.
Deferred Payment contracts are available in the Business Office, in the schedule of classes and on the link at the left of this web page. Should you decide to participate in the Deferred Payment Plan, please complete a contract and return a copy to the Business Office.
