All domestic traditional undergraduate students will automatically be enrolled in a payment plan. Rather than one due date at the start of the term for your entire balance, your balance due will be divided equally into monthly payments for a small fee of $30/semester. Students who are registered on July 1 will have plans that start July 15 and will run through December 15, giving you six months to pay off your fall charges. However, those students that register later will have shorter plans and higher monthly payments since there is less time to pay.  If the balance is paid in full by August 15, we will reverse the $30 plan fee. We start billing for spring in mid-December, and monthly payments will be due from January 15 through June 15.
