â–¼   How It Works:
  • Students, or an authorized user, must sign up each term to participate. Students may enroll within their student account.

  • The plan features three or four monthly payments for the each semester (late enrollment may reduce the number of payments available) based on actual charges and plan enrollment date. 

  • Plan payments may increase or decrease if a student makes changes to their schedule. 

  • If an installment payment is not made by the due date and the student has a housing and/or dining balance, the student may be subject to administrative removal and temporary suspension of the meal plan. See the Guide to Residential Student Living for more information. 

  • Any payments to the student account will apply to tuition, fee, housing and meal plan charges before any refunds will be returned to students. 

  • Students must have a minimum balance of $400 to be eligible to enroll in the payment plan. Students with a past due balance of $200 or more from a previous term are not eligible to participate.

  • Students in the College of Medicine and Study Abroad are not eligible to participate.
