What is Tip?
- A payment plan to budget tuition on a monthly basis.
- It is NOT a loan - there's no interest, only a non-refundable administration fee. ($45 per semester)
How does it work?
The total of your tuition, fees and insurance is calculated and reduced by any financial aid awarded. This total is divided into 4 equal payments (3 for Summer). To avoid a $100.00 late fee three things are due to the Business Office by the tuition deadline:
- Your first payment - Check, Cash, or Credit Card (MC, Discover, American Express) (1/4 of total plus non-refundable fee)
- a voided check from the bank account to be drafted
- a signed TIP form
Then, on the second business day of the next three months (2 for Summer), your payments will be automatically drafted from your bank account.
What if I want to change my draft?
To change account, amount, or to cancel the draft with a pre-payment, written notification of pre-payment must be received in the Business Office 14 days prior to the draft date.
What if I make changes in my class schedule?
You need to stop by the Business Office ASAP to authorize the corrected draft amounts.
What if my TIP payment is returned by the bank?
There is a $30.00 returned draft fee charged. The full amount of the installment plus the $30 fee is due within 5 days of notification of returned item. Your account will be placed on financial hold, precluding future registration or grades being released until your account is current.
