Installment Payment Plan

TERMS & CONDITIONS

Although tuition, fees, and room and board are due and payable at the beginning of each semester, you will have a choice of paying your entire bill in full OR opting to enroll in the Installment Payment Plan.  The Installment Payment Plan provides an opportunity to pay the current semester’s (fall or spring) eBill charges in four equal installments.

An eBill will be produced monthly, showing the outstanding balance and any new activity on your student account since the last eBill.  You must opt in to the Installment Plan, and pay the $45 Installment Enrollment Fee each semester.  The Installment Plan is not available during the summer term.  Your eBill will not indicate your monthly installment amounts; that information will be found under the Installment Payment Plan.  Your eBill will include the following charges:

1. Tuition including adjustments, non-resident tuition, graduate fees, and mandatory and special course fees

2. Charges for housing and dining services

3. Other miscellaneous charges (services, materials, field trip expenses, fines, penalties, etc.)

ELIGIBILITY

You are eligible if you opt in to the Installment Plan each fall and spring, agree to the Installment Plan Terms and Conditions, and pay the $45 Installment Enrollment Fee each semester.

INSTALLMENT PLAN PAYMENTS 

1. Your four monthly installments will be calculated on the total charges on the initial semester eBill.
2. Subsequent activity on your account (additional charges or credits) will cause your future installments to be recalculated.
3. If you withdraw from the University, all unpaid installments are due and payable.  Credits to your student account resulting from the withdrawal, if any, will first be applied to the outstanding balance before any eligible refund is issued.
4. You may prepay installments without penalty.

 PENALTIES       

1. Your initial payment must be made online or received in the Bursar’s Office on or before September 14 for Fall Semester, and January 1 for Spring Semester in order to avoid a $25 late payment fee.  
2.   A $25 late payment fee will be assessed each time you do not make the entire required payment by the due date, which is always the first day of the month. 
3. Failure to pay the amount due will result in placing an administrative hold on your student records.  This administrative hold will prevent you from making any changes to your schedule, registering for a subsequent term, or obtaining a transcript or diploma.
4. You will not be able to enroll in the Installment Plan if you have a past due balance from a previous term.  Past due balances will need to be paid in full before you can opt into the Installment Plan for the current term charges.
5. In the event you fail to perform any of your obligations under the Installment Plan, you agree to pay reasonable collection costs incurred by the University to recover the amount due, including, but not limited to collection agency fees, attorney fees, court costs and other fees to the extent permitted by Indiana State law.
