Payment Options

Degree and Diploma Programs
Please Review the following two payment options and indicate which you would prefer. Other options may be available upon approval by the university. (Registration fees are not required for diploma programs)
Option 1: The “Pre-Paid Accounts” Program: Is full payment of ALL tuition and fees at the time of enrollment. (5% discount)
Option 2: Pay-As-You-Go Payment Plan: You pay incrementally only for the courses you order (and any fees due). Degree students are asked to purchase three courses, minimally.
The “Pre-Paid Accounts” Program – Option 1:
Those students who pre-pay their student tuition and fees in full at the time of their enrollment into the University will be offered a tuition incentive to help off-set tuition costs. The monies paid will be held in a separate account, in compliance with tax laws, until courses are delivered to the student
The “Pay-As-You-Go” Program – Option 2:
If a student needs flexibility with their payment plan, the “pay-as-you-go” program allows the student to pay for each course as they are ordered. This payment program is not a financial assistance or loan program. It simply allows a student to custom design a method for paying tuition.
