We have two payment options.
Semester plan
All students will be on the semester plan if they do not enroll for the installment plan. On this plan, students will pay for each semester in one payment per semester.
Installment plan
To sign up for the installment plan, you will log into Workday and navigate to the Finances dashboard. Under, "My Account" select the "Cashnet Payment Plans" link. After clicking the link, you will be directed to the Cashnet Payment Portal and you can select "Payment Plans" to continue setup.
Plan billing
The fall payment plan will begin on August 15, and payments will be due on the 15 of every month. If you sign up after the August 15 due date, the plan will automatically adjust to a four-month plan with the first payment due on September 15. If you miss the September 15th due date, the plan will automatically adjust to a three-month plan.
Please refer to your Workday account for the most accurate student account balance. If payments are more than 15 days late, a late fee will be charged. Payment plans should be set up for the correct amount to avoid interest charges.

Credit balances are refunded after the Student Accounts office verifies that the student is eligible to receive it. For more information, visit our refund and account overpayment policies page.

Please refer to the tuition due dates page for specific due dates. If you are signed up for the installment plan, the first fall installment is due on August 15 and the first spring installment is due on January 15.

Additional monthly charges (i.e. interest, print and copy charges, long distance charges), are due on the last business day of the month.
