Monthly Payment Plan
The University is pleased to offer a new monthly payment plan option in ePay. The monthly payment plan is an interest-free alternative to lumpsum payments that are due at billing time. This option allows you to spread out your payment for the semester over a period of months and can limit the amount of loan money you may need to borrow to meet the cost of education.
Plan Details and Features
- $55 enrollment fee per semester (non-refundable/non-transferable)
- Payments are due on the 15th of each month
- Optional automatic withdrawal from your checking or savings account
- Monthly payments are automatically recalculated and updated as changes occur
- Simple, quick enrollment directly in ePay

How To Enroll
Students and authorized users can enroll in the monthly payment plan by logging into ePay.
Once logged in, click the Enroll in Payment Plan button found on the main page under the Student Account Section.
Please Note: Registration, additional payments, financial aid and/or outside scholarships MUST be finalized and in place before enrolling in the monthly payment plan. Failure to do so will result in your monthly payments being calculated incorrectly.
*Prior collection students are not eligible to enroll in the University’s monthly payment plan option.
Payment Plan Balance Adjustments
ePay continuously monitors your student account and automatically adjusts your payment plan whenever changes occur. As a result, your monthly payment amount may increase or decrease throughout the semester.
If updates are made to your account - such as adding or dropping a course, selecting a new meal plan, or changes to your financial aid - your payment plan will be recalculated to reflect the new balance. Any increase or decrease in your total amount due will be spread evenly across your remaining scheduled payments.
Please Note: Changes made within 14 days of an upcoming payment will not impact that installment. Instead, any adjustments will be applied to the payments that follow.
Students/authorized users will receive an email notification if installment amounts change.
-
When are my payments due?
Payments are due on the 15th of each month. The specific due dates will be outlined when you enroll in your plan.
-
What if I enroll in the plan after the first payment is due?
If you enroll after the first payment of the plan is due, in addition to the enrollment fee, you will be required to make any payments you have missed at the time of enrollment.
-
What payment methods are accepted?
Payments can be made in ePay each month by eCheck or credit/debit card. Convenience fees apply for credit/debit card payments.
During payment plan enrollment, automatic payments may be selected for future installments. If the option for automatic payments is not selected, payment must be made manually each month by the due date.
-
If I sign up for automatic payments, can I change my payment method after enrolling?
Yes, you can update your payment method at any time through your ePay account under the My Profile section.
-
Can I pay off my balance early?
Yes! You can make additional payments or pay off your remaining balance at any time without penalty.
-
What happens if I miss a payment? Is there a grace period?
- A 5-day grace period applies.
- A 1% late fee will apply for each installment not paid after the grace period ends.
- Your account may be placed on a financial hold.
- If any monthly payment is more than 30 days overdue, the plan may be canceled, and the full balance will be immediately due. Additional late fees may apply.
-
What if I add or drop a class after enrolling?
Your payment plan may be adjusted to reflect changes in your account balance. You will be notified if your monthly payment amount changes.
-
Can I enroll in the payment plan if I have a balance from a previous term?
No, all past due charges for a previous term must be paid in full before enrollment into the current payment plan.
-
Can someone else make payments on my behalf?
Yes, authorized users (such as parents or guardians) can be granted access to make payments through ePay.
-
How do I make sure my authorized user also receives payment plan notification reminders?
Authorized users will only receive notifications about payment plans if the student has granted this access in ePay. To ensure that your authorized user has been set up to receive notifications, follow these steps:
- Log into ePay via the myCharger portal.
- Navigate to the authorized user setup under “My Profile Setup.”
- Click the “Action” icon next to the name of your authorized user.
- Select “Yes” next to the “Would you like to allow this person to receive your payment plan communications?”
