Third Party Online Payments

Baker College offers a secure online payment system for students who are using a third-party funding source, such as Michigan Works! or an employer-sponsored payment card.
 
Important: If all or part of your tuition is being paid by a third party, you must submit that payment separately from any personal tuition payment. This helps ensure the payment is applied correctly to your account.
