Payment Schedule Options
Term Payments:
This is the default option where your residence fees are paid once per term. (See "Term Payment Deadlines").
Monthly Payment Plan:
This option can be selected by contacting Campus Living and is subject to an annual $75 fee. This option divides term residence fees into four installments, payable by the first of each month. Credit cards are not accepted for monthly payments, and only ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV students in good financial standing are eligible for payment plans. Please note: Payment plans are only approved on a case-by-case basis and are subject to Director approval.
Note: Monthly payments do not affect your occupancy dates; they merely divide your term charges into four installments.
Family Housing Only:
Residents of Family Housing are on a monthly payment plan by default without the $75 setup fee.
