Available fall, spring, and summer terms for students who owe a minimum of $2,000 of tuition and mandatory fees. Students with accounts that do not meet this threshold must visit the Student Financial Center at 301 West Hall to be administratively enrolled. A separate application is required for each term. For fall and spring terms, this plan allows students to defer initial payment for approximately 30 days through financing provided by a short term, no interest loan. The balance will be paid in three installments. For summer term, 100% emergency loan applied as payment and a single due date for payment in full. $25 service charge due at time of set up. Initial installments may also be due depending on the time of enrollment. Down payments reduce the overall plan balance and do not count toward the first installment..
