Payment Options

Three payment options are available if you don't have loans or grants.

  • The Tuition Guarantee Plan: Under this plan, the tuition cost in effect at the time of the first payment agreement will remain in effect until graduation, provided the student is enrolled full-time continuously (except summers) and the total estimated costs (including room and board) are paid by September 15 each year. (This discount is only available to students without need-based grants or loans.)
  • Cash Discount: When the total cost for the quarter (tuition, room, and board) is paid in advance, the cost will be discounted 2%. Payment must be received by September 15, December 15, and March 15 to be eligible for this discount. (This discount is available only to students without need-based grants or loans.)
  • Monthly Payment Plan: You may choose to make your September 15 payment followed by eight equal monthly payments throughout the school year.

ID Cards

Regular ID cards are issued by Financial Services and provide identification for the following purposes: Dining Commons purchases, clocking in and out of campus jobs, use of the college library, transactions at the Financial Services office and Records office, special functions on campus, purchases by personal check at local businesses, and identification of students for campus security purposes, and sometimes for receiving student discounts at local businesses or events.

Should a card be lost or stolen, notification must be made to the Financial Services office before the student's obligation for any misuse of the card will end. A $12 fee is charged to replace lost or stolen ID cards.
