Tuition Payment Plan fromTuition PayWhat is Tuition Pay?Tuition Pay by Sallie Mae is an educa-tional financing company that providesfamilies and students with a low cost planfor budgeting tuition and other educationexpenses. The Tuition Pay Monthly planis NOT a loan program, therefore nodebt is incurred. There is no interest orfinance charge assessed by Tuition Pay onthe unpaid balance due to the college.The only fee to budget payments throughTuition Pay is a $35.00 per semester non-refundable enrollment fee. Paymentsmade through Tuition Pay are consider-ably less expensive than the cost of ob-taining loans, paying with credit cards, orbudgeting through other interest or fee-charging payment plans. There is nocredit search or qualifications necessaryto use Tuition Pay.One of the reasons why the cost tobudget with Tuition Pay is so affordableis because payments through Tuition Payare made by using automatic paymentsfrom your bank. The automatic paymenthelps you budget tuition payments in aconvenient way which ensures that thecollege will receive dependable and con-sistent tuition payments. With Tuition Payyou never miss a payment and you savethe time and expense of writing andmailing checks.

How does the automaticpayment work?Automatic payments are simply paymentsthat you authorize your bank to make onyour behalf on a specific date eachmonth. The amount paid by your bank isa predetermined amount that you haveauthorized. Your bank will make thesepayments from either your checking or

savings account, according to the instruc-tions you have provided on your agree-ment with Tuition Pay. Payments will bemade until the total amount due to thecollege is paid in full. Automatic pay-ments are used to pay mortgages, life in-surance premiums, car payments, utilities,and other types of bills.When you use Tuition Pay to pay yourschool tuition, your bank sends your pay-ment on the 5th of the month directly tothe bank that Tuition Pay uses to collecttuition payments. Before any payment ismade, Tuition Pay provides evidence ofyour authorization for tuition paymentsto your bank. Your bank will usually ver-ify this authorization with you and thenset up the payment schedule. It is impor-tant to remember that Tuition Pay andyour college never see your bank accountor have any direct access to your account.You never lose any control of your ac-count. The automatic payment process isstrictly controlled by state and federallaws. With Tuition Pay your payments aremade on the 5th of each month.

Budget PeriodTo qualify for the 3-month payment plan,Tuition Pay must receive student applica-tions by August 10th for the Fall semesteror December 10th for the Spring semes-ter. The budget period is August throughOctober for the Fall semester and Januarythrough March for the Spring semester.The Tuition Pay payment plan is notavailable for courses offered during theSummer semester.

How to apply for Tuition PayTo enroll in the Tuition Pay Monthly plansimply go to their website at www.tuition-pay.com and click on “enroll now”.
