Responsive Payment Plan Installments

Installment payments are responsive to charges and credits that are pending or post to the student account. Therefore, monthly installments may increase or decrease throughout the length of the payment plan, based on account activity, such as:

  • Adding/Dropping/Withdrawing
  • Financial Aid Award Increases or Reductions
  • Bookstore Purchases or Returns
  • Third Party Payment Authorizations or Cancellations

Installments are “locked” 5 days prior to the due date of the installment. Any adjustment to a student’s account within the 5 days leading up to the due date will not affect the installment amount due. However, the subsequent installments will adjust accordingly. In the event that credits to a student account, such as financial aid awards or withdrawing/dropping a course, results in a $0 or credit balance, the payment plan automatically adjusts all remaining installments to $0 and considers the payment plan completed. There is no need to request a withdrawal from a payment plan when this occurs.
