Paying for College

Tuition and Billing

It's very important to understand how much college costs and exactly how to go about paying your college bills. 

• You don't have to pay the full bill at one time: Learn about payment plans through Nelnet Campus Commerce
• Paper invoices are not sent by mail: you are responsible for checking your account using Student eServices 
•  Minimum payment criteria must be met by the due date to avoid being dropped from your courses.

Financial Aid

Whether you're just starting out in college, or continuing your college career, you're probably concerned about paying for college! Unless you can afford to pay for everything yourself, you will need to find other sources of funding to cover college costs, such as tuition, fees, books, supplies, tools, and living expenses. 

• Our financial aid department will help you with student loans and grants. The first step is filing the FAFSA. Financial Aid Application Process
• Make sure you file the FAFSA every year, not just your first year in college.
• Even if you don't think you will qualify, you should still file the FAFSA. You never know!
