DEFERMENT PAYMENT PLAN

- Resident and non-resident students with zero (0) balance at the time of registration and no evidence of financial aid may choose to pay under the Deferred Payment Plan.
- Under the Deferred Payment Plan, students must pay one-half (1/2) of the total amount due at registration. The remainder must be paid in two (2) equal installments. For the Fall and Spring semesters, one-half of the remaining balance must be paid within 45 days of registration and the remainder within 90 days of registration.
- The Deferred Payment Plan is not available during summer sessions.
- For every transaction under this plan, the deferment of $50 will be assessed.
