Installment payment plans allow both resident and non-resident students to pay their tuition and fees over four months for a small fee ($25).
The payment plan consists of all tuition and fees, spread out equally over 4 installments. The $25 payment plan fee is due at the same time as the first installment.
For the Spring '20 term, the first installment and payment plan fee is due no later than Wednesday, January 15th with the remaining installments due February 15th, March 15th, and April 15th.
You cannot sign up for an installment payment plan until after you have registered for classes. If you register for additional classes or make any adjustments to your registration, your amount due are updated equally among the four installments (even if you've already paid the first installment). For example, if you changed your registration, resulting in an increase of $1000, it would result in $250 added to each of the four installments. If this change occurred after you made your first installment, you would owe $250 immediately with the remaining $750 spread out over the three remaining installments. Please pay close attention to the payment amounts and due dates to avoid late fees and having a hold on your account which would prevent any future registrations.
