Financing Options

You, the student, are responsible for making arrangements to pay the cost of items billed to your student account, i.e. tuition, room, board, fees, etc., that is not met by the grants and scholarships awarded to you. Payment for each quarter/semester is due 10 days prior to the official start of term. You will find a schedule of exact dates for billing statements and payment due dates on the Office of the Bursar website.

Aside from making a payment at the beginning of each quarter/semester to cover your unmet costs, several financing options are available. First, decide how much you are able to pay from personal funds. Then, consider each of the following payment alternatives and decide which one(s) will meet your remaining needs. Be aware that some of these options charge fees or interest which increases your overall cost for education.
